Bitcoin Slows, Altcoins Surge: Coinbase Believes a Full-Scale Altseason Here
The cryptocurrency market is witnessing a significant shift in momentum, with the price of Bitcoin (BTC) slowing down and alternative coins (altcoins) experiencing an unprecedented surge. According to recent reports from Coinbase, a leading digital asset exchange, these trends suggest that conditions are moving towards a more widespread altcoin season heading into September.
Bitcoin’s dominance has declined from 65% in May 2025 to around 59% by August, indicating early signs of capital rotation into altcoins. This shift is not only significant but also potentially profitable for investors who have been seeking diversification opportunities outside the traditional Bitcoin narrative.
The Altcoin Season Index (ASI) also remains low at approximately 40, historically suggesting that an altcoin season may be imminent. While it has not yet reached its average threshold of 75, there is a growing consensus among market participants that we are on the cusp of something bigger.
