After months of Bitcoin dominance keeping altcoins in check, crypto analysts now believe the long-awaited altcoin season could finally be near. With Bitcoin recently touching a record high above $113,000 while its dominance hovers just below 60%, signs are emerging that liquidity could soon rotate into the altcoin, setting the stage for a major breakout.
Altcoin Market Cap Nears Breakout Zone
As October 2025 continues, analysts are turning bullish, hinting at the start of a new altcoin season. According to the crypto analyst, Bitcoinsensus the total altcoin market cap is showing a strong technical setup that could signal a big move ahead.
Data reveals that altcoins are finally breaking above a major 3-year resistance near the $1.46 trillion mark, a level that has capped growth since 2021.
A confirmed monthly close above this level could trigger what many are calling a “massive breakout.”
Adding to the optimism, this is the third MACD cross in eight years, a signal that has marked past altcoin rallies. Veteran analyst Moustache also highlighted that altcoins have flipped their 2021 high into strong support, strengthening the case for a major move ahead.
“Altcoin season isn’t cancelled.” “It’s coming — and it’s going to be huge. Mark my words.”
Bitcoin Dominance Losing Steam
Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s dominance has started to show early signs of weakness. Analysts believe a sustained drop below 55% could open the door for altcoins to outperform.
The bearish MACD flip on Bitcoin’s dominance chart further supports this view, suggesting that capital rotation might already be underway.
Crypto trader Mister Crypto echoed this sentiment, saying,
“Bitcoin is breaking down through its parabolic uptrend. Liquidity rotation has started, and we’re entering the biggest bull run in history. The best risk/reward is now in altcoins.”
What Next For Altcoin?
Meanwhile, Google search data shows a 40–50% rise in altcoin searches in late September. This momentum matches past trends, as October and November often bring strong crypto gains.
If these patterns hold, analysts say Q4 2025 could mark the beginning of the next major altcoin rally, one that could rival or even surpass the 2021 bull run.
