📰 The Bitcoin Top Is In: Altseason Countdown Begins

After 558 days since the April 2024 Bitcoin halving, all major indicators now align to signal what seasoned traders have been waiting for: the Bitcoin top is likely in — and the long-awaited altseason window is opening.

đŸ”č 1. The Halving Clock Never Lies

Bitcoin has always followed a predictable four-year rhythm driven by its halving cycle.

In previous cycles, the market top occurred roughly 530–550 days after the halving, followed by a powerful rotation into altcoins.

Today, October 29, 2025, marks day 558 post-halving — right inside the historical topping zone.


đŸ”č 2. The Technical Picture Confirms It

Bitcoin’s monthly chart shows a clear double-top formation around $124,000–$126,000, with:

  • Long upper wicks indicating profit-taking,

  • A bearish MACD crossover forming on the monthly timeframe,

  • Volume spikes typical of distribution phases,

  • BTC dominance rolling over from the 53–55% zone.

These are identical conditions seen at the 2017 and 2021 tops.

Each time, Bitcoin cooled down 25–35% before liquidity rotated into altcoins.


đŸ”č 3. What Happens Next — The Altseason Pattern

When Bitcoin dominance peaks and begins to fall, capital historically flows into large-cap altcoins (ETH, BNB, SOL), then mid-caps, and finally meme, DeFi, and AI tokens — creating the parabolic phase we call Altseason.

Here’s the data from past cycles:

CycleAltseason DurationMarket Behavior2013–2014~90 daysETH (early), XRP, LTC rallied 10×–30×2017–2018~120 daysETH, ADA, XRP, BNB, and memes exploded 20×–100×2021–2022~100 daysSOL, AVAX, SHIB, DOGE, and AI tokens led the market


Altseason typically lasts 3–4 months, starting 30–90 days after Bitcoin’s top.

That places the 2025–2026 Altseason window between November 2025 and February 2026.


đŸ”č 4. The Setup Right Now

  • Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) is declining from 43–45%.

  • Ethereum (ETH/BTC) pair is breaking out of long-term downtrend resistance.

  • TOTAL3 market cap (altcoins excluding BTC & ETH) is testing breakout levels.

  • Meme and AI tokens are seeing renewed inflows.

All signs point to the early rotation phase, when Bitcoin consolidates and altcoins start outperforming.


đŸ”č 5. What It Means for Investors


This phase marks the most aggressive wealth transfer in crypto cycles.

Historically, the months following Bitcoin’s top have produced 10×–100× gains across select altcoins.

But timing and quality matter — in every cycle, only projects with real utility, transparency, and strong community momentum survive after the mania fades

đŸ”č 6. The Final Word



The data is clear:

  • We are 558 days post-halving,

  • Bitcoin has formed a macro double-top,

  • And the altcoin rotation phase has begun.

If history rhymes, #Altseason 2025–2026 is starting now — right as Bitcoin begins its cooling phase.

The coming months could define the winners of the next cycle, as liquidity flows from Bitcoin into innovation-driven altcoins.
