According to @TATrader_Alan, the $TOTAL 3-day chart has been moving within a 3-year price channel where a minor altseason tends to occur annually, based on his historical chart study (source: X post by @TATrader_Alan on 2025-08-29: https://twitter.com/TATrader_Alan/status/1961372770450944301). He adds that a breakout above this channel would trigger a Mega Altseason; traders tracking altcoin exposure can use a confirmed $TOTAL 3D channel breakout as the technical signal for rotation into alts and risk management (source: X post by @TATrader_Alan on 2025-08-29: https://twitter.com/TATrader_Alan/status/1961372770450944301).

According to Trader Tardigrade, analysis of the $Total crypto market cap chart (D1) indicates that Altseason 2025 could begin after the current pullback, suggesting traders should monitor support levels and altcoin performance for early signals of a market-wide surge. This aligns with historical patterns where major pullbacks have preceded significant altcoin rallies, offering strategic entry points for portfolio diversification (source: Trader Tardigrade on Twitter, June 16, 2025).
