Main to remember
The Altcoin season index hits 76, the Doge / BTC and BTC.D rallies print lower stockings. Will the index challenge cycle 2024?
Beyond macro risks, an important wind from the domination of Bitcoin (BTC.D) was the Altcoin market. On paper, BTC recovers consecutive resistance levels, the last about $ 112,000.
And yet, BTC.D did not recover 60% of the entries, printing a candle every red week. Meanwhile, Total2 (Ex-BTC Stock Exchange) is up 3.58%, showing that capital is still pursuing high beta alts.
The result? The Altcoin season index jumped from 13% to 76 in a single day, officially pointing out the first full -fledged season since the electoral race.
This also underlines the persistent risk behavior in BTC flows.

In simple terms, traders continue to increase excessive outside Bitcoin.
Example: Dogecoin (Doge). While Ethereum (ETH) strikes a wall, the ETH / BTC ratio failing at 0.04 resistance, the DOGE / BTC ratio tears almost 10% in less than two weeks, looking at the ceiling of 0.0000024.
Interestingly, the current market cycle reflects the previous electoral race, even mania is arrows, btc.d slip and eth / btc remains capped.
Given how the Altcoin season index broke out in 2024 in similar conditions, could we attend a repeated performance?
Traders, why prudence is justified!
During the electoral cycle, BTC.D displayed its worst weekly race in two years.
The Altcoin season index reached 88 in early December, causing BTC.D down 10% to 54% in the same section. However, when BTC.D rebounded 65% in mid-June, the Altcoin season index crashed at 12.
The alts were destroyed while the overloaded positions exploded. Quick advance for now, Coanyze shows the domination of the open interest of Bitcoin (OI) at 38%, which means that the Alt lever works 50% higher than BTC, creating a crowded gaming book.

In short, the Altcoin season index flirts with another high top.
But there is a key divergence: BTC.D has displayed two lower stockings since its 65%peak. Unlike the electoral cycle, when capital turned into Bitcoin (BTC), alt entries continue to climb, keeping BTC.D under pressure.
Why is it important? According to Ambcrypto, investors remain far from Bitcoin, keeping it locked in a chop.
As long as this scheme is held, the index of the Altcoin season remains to the point and could challenge its 88 tops.
