Coinbase Forecasts Full-Scale Altcoin Season in 2025

Cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase predicts a shift toward an extended period of altcoin dominance, particularly as Bitcoin’s influence wanes. Their insights point to Ethereum’s growing institutional appeal, alongside increased market liquidity for other altcoins. This prediction is based on key indicators like the 50% surge in altcoin market cap to $1.4 trillion and Ethereum’s rising institutional interest, all reflecting evolving market dynamics. Coinbase Institutional, led by David Duong, anticipates a full-scale altcoin season starting as early as August 2025.
