According to Michaël van de Poppe, Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) is rejecting the 20-Week Moving Average and turning lower following BTC’s recent correction, a setup he highlights as a potential inflection point. Source: Michaël van de Poppe on X, Nov 18, 2025. He notes that similar dominance rollovers in 2016–2017 and 2019–2020 into 2021 coincided with Bitcoin bottoming and consolidating while altcoins outperformed BTC.

According to @FarsideUK, the Bitwise Solana ETF has recorded net inflows every day even as crypto prices decline and BTC and ETH ETFs register outflows (source: Farside Investors X post Nov 14, 2025; farside.co.uk/sol/). This sustained inflow streak establishes a clear flow divergence versus BTC and ETH ETF products during the same period, indicating net new capital into SOL exposure while capital exits BTC and ETH ETFs (source: Farside Investors X post Nov 14, 2025; farside.co.uk/sol/). For trading, the divergence suggests monitoring SOL/BTC and SOL/ETH relative strength alongside the persistence of daily ETF inflows as a confirmation tool for potential rotation-driven momentum in SOL (source: Farside Investors X post Nov 14, 2025; farside.co.uk/sol/).

According to @cryptorover, approximately $1 trillion was added to the US stock market today and he states that a rotation into crypto is next, highlighting a potential shift of capital toward digital assets for traders to watch; source: @cryptorover on X, Nov 10, 2025.

According to Miles Deutscher, he has shared a Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) analysis outlining what needs to happen for altcoins to pump, directing traders’ attention to dominance-driven rotation dynamics. Source: Miles Deutscher on X, Nov 9, 2025. Bitcoin dominance measures BTC’s share of total crypto market value, so a sustained decline in BTC.D mathematically signals capital rotating into non-BTC assets, a key precondition for broad altcoin outperformance. Source: CoinMarketCap Glossary on Bitcoin Dominance. Traders commonly track BTC.D on TradingView and look for lower highs or breakdowns to confirm rotation, as falling dominance historically aligns with stronger altcoin breadth. Source: TradingView BTC.D index. A practical confirmation is BTC.D trending down while the total crypto market cap ex-BTC (TOTAL2) trends up, indicating net inflows to altcoins rather than isolated spikes. Source: TradingView TOTAL2 and BTC.D. When BTC price action stabilizes while BTC.D falls, altcoins typically see relative strength; conversely, rising BTC.D often suppresses altcoin performance as BTC absorbs a larger share of flows.

According to @CryptoMichNL, the market setup resembles Q4 2019–Q1 2020, noting that altcoins lagged before rotating then, and that BTC dominance has made its first pullback with a second decline expected this quarter, implying a possible altcoin outperformance if confirmed (source: @CryptoMichNL on X, Nov 9, 2025). For trading, this view suggests monitoring BTC.D for a second leg lower and tracking alt/BTC pairs for strength and liquidity rotation around that signal (source: @CryptoMichNL on X, Nov 9, 2025).

According to the source, a decline in Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) is being flagged as a potential early signal for an altcoin season rotation. Source: public X post dated Nov 9, 2025. Historically, sharp drops in BTC.D preceded broad altcoin outperformance in 2017 and early 2021, when BTC.D fell from roughly 85% to 38% (2017) and from about 72% to 40% (2021). Source: CoinMarketCap historical dominance data; TradingView BTC.D.

According to the source, Bitwise’s new Solana ETF attracted over 126 million dollars in net inflows during its first full week of trading, while Bitcoin and Ethereum funds saw net outflows in the same period, source: the source. Historically, sustained ETF inflows have coincided with relative strength in the underlying asset, as observed with US spot BTC ETFs in early 2024 based on SEC EDGAR flow disclosures and Bloomberg Intelligence tracking, source: SEC EDGAR; Bloomberg Intelligence. Traders can monitor SOL versus BTC and ETH spot volume leadership and perp funding spreads for rotation confirmation given the documented linkage between ETF flow momentum and price leadership, source: Bloomberg Intelligence.

According to @ItsDave_ADA, ADA’s market cap surged, lifting ADA’s market dominance by 6.45% over the last 24 hours (source: @ItsDave_ADA on X). The 6.45% dominance gain (source: @ItsDave_ADA on X) indicates ADA captured market share versus the broader crypto market during this period, signaling short-term relative strength against majors like BTC and ETH. Traders can monitor ADA/BTC and ADA/ETH for follow-through while using the reported dominance jump as a confirmation signal (source: @ItsDave_ADA on X).

According to the source, traders asking when altseason starts should track six objective signals that have historically preceded altcoin outperformance, with each tied to verifiable data sources. 1) BTC dominance (BTC.D) rollover: Altseason historically begins when BTC.D tops and enters a downtrend; use breaks below 50D/200D moving averages and lower highs to confirm. Source: Binance Research, Bitcoin dominance studies (2020–2021); TradingView BTC.D index. 2) ETH/BTC trend reversal: Sustained ETH/BTC uptrend (higher highs, closes above the 200D MA) typically leads broader alt strength. Source: Kraken Intelligence, Altcoin season research (2021); Binance Research, factor and beta studies (2021); TradingView ETHBTC. 3) Derivatives rotation: Rising share of open interest and volume in altcoin perpetuals versus BTC, alongside steadily positive alt funding while BTC funding normalizes, has preceded alt rallies. Source: Glassnode Insights, Derivatives and leverage reports (2023); Binance Futures Research, funding and basis (2022); Deribit Insights, perpetual markets notes (2022). 4) Stablecoin dry powder: Increasing aggregate stablecoin supply and rising stablecoin exchange balances, as well as a falling Stablecoin Supply Ratio (SSR), indicate deployable capital into alts. Source: Glassnode, Stablecoin Supply Ratio (SSR) metric documentation (2020); CryptoQuant, stablecoin flow metrics documentation (2021). 5) Market breadth: A majority of top-100 alts closing above their 200D MA with expanding volume signals healthier breadth needed for altseason. Source: TradingView Screener methodology; Binance Research, market breadth and cross-sectional momentum studies (2021). 6) On-chain profit rotation: Elevated realized profits in BTC with a declining short-term holder supply share, followed by increasing alt exchange inflows, suggests rotation risk. Source: Glassnode Insights, realized profit/loss and HODL wave analyses (2021–2023). Trading approach: Wait for at least three of the above triggers to align, then scale into ETH/BTC and a diversified alt/BTC basket; invalidate if BTC.D makes new highs or if ETH/BTC loses its 200D MA on closing basis.

According to @rovercrc, altseason starts once ETH breaks 5,000 dollars, making 5,000 a clear breakout trigger for broader altcoin upside (source: @rovercrc on X, Oct 18, 2025). According to @rovercrc, ETH’s move through 5,000 is the catalyst to rotate into altcoins, implying traders may watch for a decisive break and sustained momentum above that level before positioning (source: @rovercrc on X, Oct 18, 2025). According to @rovercrc, the post offers no timeframe, indicators, or risk parameters, so the call is a level-based thesis without supporting data (source: @rovercrc on X, Oct 18, 2025).

According to @MilkRoadDaily, Bitcoin (BTC) has been lagging, but analyst Jamie Coutts indicates that underperformance may soon reverse and the current crypto cycle remains intact, suggesting potential BTC leadership ahead; traders should be prepared for rotation dynamics favoring BTC.

According to @CryptoMichNL, altcoin markets have seen a harsh correction that he frames as a standard pullback rather than a structural trend change (source: @CryptoMichNL on X, Oct 9, 2025). He adds that Bitcoin (BTC) is close to finding a bottom, and he expects the green light for altcoins once BTC stabilizes, implying a rotation trade back into higher-beta coins (source: @CryptoMichNL on X, Oct 9, 2025). For traders, his guidance points to waiting for confirmation of a BTC bottom before reallocating into altcoins to align with the anticipated risk-on phase (source: @CryptoMichNL on X, Oct 9, 2025).
