According to Lookonchain, a veteran Bitcoin holder deposited another 1,000 BTC (about $109M) into Hyperliquid to sell BTC and buy ETH spot. According to Lookonchain, the same wallet had previously accumulated 740,570 ETH (around $3.4B) and staked those holdings. According to Lookonchain, this activity was reported on August 31, 2025.

According to @rovercrc, more than $4B has flowed into ETH ETFs this month while BTC ETFs saw $624.48M in outflows, signaling a sharp demand rotation between the two assets (source: @rovercrc on X, Aug 30, 2025). According to @rovercrc, this divergence hints at a potential altseason, implying potential relative-strength upside in ETH/BTC and higher-beta altcoins if the reported flow trend persists (source: @rovercrc on X, Aug 30, 2025). According to @rovercrc, traders can focus on tracking daily net flows of ETH vs BTC ETFs and watch ETH/BTC for breakouts as confirmation before increasing altcoin exposure (source: @rovercrc on X, Aug 30, 2025).

According to @AltcoinGordon, an OG Bitcoin whale holding about $5.42 billion in BTC is selling Bitcoin to buy ETH (source: @AltcoinGordon on X, Aug 29, 2025). The post presents this rotation as an Altseason signal, suggesting a shift of interest from BTC into ETH and altcoins (source: @AltcoinGordon on X, Aug 29, 2025). The post provides no on-chain addresses, transaction hashes, or third-party confirmations, so the claim remains unverified at the time of posting (source: @AltcoinGordon on X, Aug 29, 2025). For trading, this functions as a sentiment cue; monitor ETH/BTC and whale-flow narratives while treating the claim as unconfirmed until verifiable on-chain evidence is available (source: @AltcoinGordon on X, Aug 29, 2025).

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 @Pentosh1, he is avoiding Ethereum and Solana ecosystem tokens because when billions flowed into ETH, the beta trade underperformed, so he prefers owning the majors to front-run those flows (source: @Pentosh1 on X, Aug 28, 2025). This implies a rotation away from higher-beta ecosystem coins toward direct exposure in ETH and SOL to align with anticipated buy-side momentum and capital inflows (source: @Pentosh1 on X, Aug 28, 2025).

According to @rovercrc, Bitcoin season has completed, Ethereum season is in progress, and a large-cap and full altseason is coming soon, implying a rotation from BTC to ETH and then to large-cap altcoins for momentum traders (source: @rovercrc on X, Aug 28, 2025). Based on this roadmap, traders may consider shifting overweight from BTC toward ETH and liquid large-cap altcoins in the near term while anticipating broader altcoin follow-through if the sequence plays out (source: @rovercrc on X, Aug 28, 2025).

According to @rovercrc, the Altseason Index stands at 54 as of August 26, 2025 (source: @rovercrc on X, August 26, 2025). Per BlockchainCenter’s Altcoin Season Index methodology, altseason is confirmed only when 75% of the top 50 altcoins outperform BTC over the last 90 days, and a reading of 54 indicates that 54% have outperformed BTC in that window (source: BlockchainCenter Altcoin Season Index methodology). This reading shows broadening altcoin outperformance versus BTC but not a confirmed altseason, making the index a useful breadth gauge for tracking rotation until a sustained move toward 75 occurs (source: BlockchainCenter Altcoin Season Index methodology). Traders can monitor the index level alongside relative performance in major BTC pairs and aggregate altcoin market metrics to validate momentum shifts (source: BlockchainCenter Altcoin Season Index and TradingView market data).

According to @rovercrc, a breakout in small-cap stocks via IWM (Russell 2000) has historically preceded the most parabolic phase in the OTHERS crypto market cap. Source: @rovercrc, Aug 26, 2025. According to @rovercrc, the acceleration is driven by small-cap altcoins that most holders own, implying leadership from high-beta crypto segments during the next leg. Source: @rovercrc, Aug 26, 2025. According to @rovercrc, traders tracking Altcoin Season 3.0 should watch for an IWM breakout as a timing signal and monitor OTHERS market cap for momentum confirmation.

According to @rovercrc, Bitcoin dominance BTC.D is set for a sharp drop, implying an imminent rotation into altcoins and potential outperformance of alts, as stated in a post on X on Aug 25, 2025; no specific price levels or timeframes were provided. Source: @rovercrc on X, Aug 25, 2025. According to @rovercrc, the view frames a rotation trade from BTC to altcoins, signaling traders to watch BTC.D and altcoin market breadth for confirmation if the dominance metric starts falling.

According to @QCPgroup, near-term momentum is shifting from BTC to ETH while maintaining a structurally bullish view on the crypto market, which is trading-relevant for rotation strategies between majors (source: QCPgroup on X, Aug 25, 2025). According to @QCPgroup, the market absorbed approximately 80,000 BTC of legacy supply in July, signaling robust bid absorption that supports downside resilience (source: QCPgroup on X, Aug 25, 2025). According to @QCPgroup, institutions are expected to selectively buy dips, implying potential support on pullbacks and tactical opportunities in ETH relative strength versus BTC (source: QCPgroup on X, Aug 25, 2025).

According to @rovercrc, the Bitcoin dominance index BTC.D is breaking out of a 1,000-day downtrend, which the author frames as confirmation of an altseason based on the chart shared on X on Aug 23, 2025, source: @rovercrc. Traders responding to this signal may monitor for sustained closes of BTC.D above the broken trendline to validate momentum before rotating into alt/BTC pairs, source: @rovercrc. Positioning considerations include scaling exposure toward high-liquidity altcoins only after confirmation and using BTC.D as a risk gauge for timing entries and exits in alt/BTC markets, source: @rovercrc. If BTC.D fails and reclaims the downtrend, the altseason thesis weakens, favoring defensive positioning back toward BTC or stablecoins until a new signal emerges, source: @rovercrc.

According to Cas Abbé, altcoins are down 51% against ETH since April, indicating the market is still in an Ethereum Season rather than a broad Altseason (source: Cas Abbé on X, Aug 23, 2025). He adds that once ETH breaks above $5,000, a few weeks of altcoin outperformance is expected, framing $5K as the key trigger for a potential short-term rotation into alts (source: Cas Abbé on X, Aug 23, 2025).

According to @cas_abbe, the Total2/BTC ratio has broken out of a three-year downtrend and flipped a key resistance level into support, indicating potential outperformance of altcoins versus BTC in the near term. According to @cas_abbe, this setup could lead to a 2021-style pump that drives altcoins to new highs, suggesting traders monitor the Total2/BTC chart for confirmation of sustained strength.

According to @TO, an ETH rally often precedes altseason, creating a bullish setup for Bitcoin Ordinals and Runes markets, source: @TO on X (Aug 22, 2025). For trading execution, the thesis implies monitoring ETH momentum and potential rotation into Bitcoin Ordinals inscriptions and Runes-related liquidity as entry cues, source: @TO.

According to @ErikVoorhees, the market may ultimately treat Bitcoin (BTC) as the ideal form of money and Ethereum (ETH) as the ideal tech stock, signaling distinct valuation lenses for each asset, Source: Erik Voorhees on X, Aug 22, 2025. For trading, this framing suggests segmenting BTC as a monetary asset and ETH as a growth-tech proxy to guide relative-value positioning and risk budgeting, Source: Erik Voorhees on X, Aug 22, 2025. The message’s amplification via a retweet by @Matt_Hougan highlights a narrative signal traders can monitor in BTC versus ETH rotations, Source: Erik Voorhees on X, Aug 22, 2025; RT by Matt Hougan on X.

According to @RhythmicAnalyst, BTC dominance has broken a key weekly trend support, signaling potential weakness in Bitcoin’s market share relative to altcoins (source: @RhythmicAnalyst, X post, Aug 22, 2025). If this support is not recovered, the author expects a major rally in altcoins, implying an Altseason scenario where altcoins could outperform BTC (source: @RhythmicAnalyst, X post, Aug 22, 2025). For trading, the author’s framework suggests monitoring whether BTC dominance stays below the broken trend as a continuation trigger for altcoin strength, while a swift reclaim of the level would invalidate the Altseason thesis (source: @RhythmicAnalyst, X post, Aug 22, 2025).

According to @milesdeutscher, ETH currently has the upper hand over BTC in both price action and market narrative, signaling relative strength in the ETH/BTC pair, source: @milesdeutscher. For traders, this points to ETH/BTC as the key cross to monitor for momentum and rotation signals while ETH leadership persists, source: @milesdeutscher.

According to Miles Deutscher, during the latest BTC correction, altcoins are holding up better than in prior pullbacks, with the divergence driven by ETH strength (source: Miles Deutscher on X, Aug 20, 2025). Deutscher adds that chart evidence suggests altcoin resilience relative to BTC and attributes the shift to Ethereum leading the market tone (source: Miles Deutscher on X, Aug 20, 2025).

According to @MilkRoadDaily, BTC dominance (BTC.D) has broken its roughly three-year uptrend on the weekly chart, source: @MilkRoadDaily. This break is observable on the BTC.D weekly chart commonly referenced by traders, source: TradingView. @MilkRoadDaily outlines a base path where BTC.D extends its breakdown, then rallies to retest the former trendline, source: @MilkRoadDaily. The scenario anticipates a rejection at that retest, followed by a slide toward the 40–50 percent dominance zone, source: @MilkRoadDaily. @MilkRoadDaily adds that this trajectory would align with an early-stage altcoin season as altcoins begin to outperform BTC on a relative basis, source: @MilkRoadDaily.

According to @AltcoinGordon, large-cap cryptocurrencies BTC, ETH, and SOL should be treated as active trading weapons for timing the entire market, not just as alternatives to micro caps, source: @AltcoinGordon. He asserts he has timed Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana exceptionally well to illustrate that edge can come from large caps too, source: @AltcoinGordon.
