๐ก CoinMarketCap | Altcoin Season Index ๐ก
Fact check: a reading above 50 does NOT mean it's altcoin season.
How it actually works:
The Altcoin Season Index tracks how many of the top 100 coins have outperformed Bitcoin over a rolling 90-day window.
Stablecoins and wrapped tokens are excluded, so the index only measures real, speculative assets. The score is also weighted across multiple data sets, not a simple headcount.
The thresholds are the part most people miss:
๐น 75 or above = altcoin season
๐น 25 or below = bitcoin season
๐น Anything in between = a mixed, neutral market
Disclaimer: it's a lagging signal.
It confirms a rotation that is already underway, it does not predict the next one!
So before calling "altcoin season," check the number and the threshold ๐
