Altcoin Season Delayed, but Not Cancelled: QT Ends and Market Shifts

Quantitative Tightening (QT) has ended after a prolonged period. This is a major shift that signals the start of an altcoin season. Many had been waiting for this moment since 2022. Analysts believe that QT’s ending, coupled with the return of liquidity to risk assets, could lead to a significant move in the altcoin market. CryptoRus, a popular crypto analyst, highlights the similarity of current market conditions to previous cycles where major reversals occurred. Notably, similar patterns emerged before both the 2016 and 2020 altseason booms. The TOTAL3 altcoin index is currently holding at multi-year support levels, reminiscent of those seen in past bull runs. It’s crucial to note that this shift is not a cancellation of the ‘alt season’, but rather a postponement until liquidity increases. CryptoRus believes that the current conditions, like historical precedents, are ripe for an explosive altcoin rally when fresh liquidity enters the market.
