It\u2019s when. Every major crypto cycle begins the same way: Bitcoin (BTC) leads, stabilises, and hands the rally baton to smaller coins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The last two rotations, in 2017 and 2021, each saw BTC&#8217;s dominance collapse from above 70% to around 40%, unlocking explosive rallies across Ethereum (ETH), Ripple (XRP), and a long list of smaller assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">A long-simmering clash between Bitcoin purists and altcoin advocates is reaching a high-stakes battleground: the corporate-treasury boom <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/w3SryDRwJq\">https:\/\/t.co\/w3SryDRwJq<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Bloomberg (@business) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/business\/status\/1967663473686442187?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 15, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, the pattern is re-emerging.

If policy stays on this trajectory, liquidity could fuel an altcoin rally well into early 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Retail Curiosity Returns<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Retail traders are starting to take notice. Google searches for \u201caltcoins\u201d have jumped 40\u201350% since late September, while social engagement around ETH, Solana (SOL), and Chainlink (LINK) has surged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These early signs of retail curiosity mirror the build-up seen before previous altseasons. The leaders are already breaking ahead: XRP, SUI, and LINK have shown relative strength against BTC, often the first clue that capital is rotating toward higher-beta names.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Wall Street, crypto industry say tokenization will reshape global markets: &#39;It\u2019s going to eat the entire financial system&#39; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/QpMZU3wZDr\">https:\/\/t.co\/QpMZU3wZDr<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Yahoo Finance (@YahooFinance) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/YahooFinance\/status\/1974853618562978006?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 5, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, traders should tread carefully. The popular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blockchaincenter.net\/en\/altcoin-season-index\/\">altcoin season index<\/a> measuring how many top-100 coins outperform BTC has already crossed the 80 mark this year but failed to trigger a true rally. Many smaller coins barely moved, showing that the indicator is often backward-looking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In reality, most of the money is made before the data confirms it. That\u2019s why analysts focus instead on BTC dominance trends, altcoin market cap acceleration, and DeFi liquidity growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Has the Altcoin Season Begun?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If these signals continue to align, the next altcoin season could emerge between October 2025 and February 2026. Timing, however, remains tied to macro catalysts. Faster rate cuts, approvals for spot ETFs, or regulatory milestones such as the U.S. Clarity Act could accelerate the cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, any delay in easing or a sudden risk-off move could push the timeline back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This cycle may be larger in scale but narrower in scope. Some forecasts project that total altcoin market capitalisation could eventually reach USD 15 trillion, driven by institutional adoption and the tokenisation of real-world assets. Yet unlike <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/brief-history-bitcoin-bubbles-184720389.html\">2017\u2019s frenzy<\/a>, the rally may centre on fewer names.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Institutional money prefers liquidity and compliance, meaning capital could cluster around established ecosystems rather than scatter across thousands of speculative tokens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For traders, that shift changes the strategy. The coming altcoin cycle may reward precision more than speculation. Watching how liquidity, regulation, and macro policy evolve will be key. If history holds true, what\u2019s forming now beneath BTC\u2019s surface may soon become the market\u2019s next major rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Upcoming Events<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td><td>Currency<\/td><td>Event<\/td><td>Forecast<\/td><td>Previous<\/td><td>Analyst Remarks<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>7 Oct<\/td><td>EUR<br>GBP<\/td><td>ECB President Lagarde speaks<\/td><td>&#8211;<\/td><td>&#8211;<\/td><td>Look out for news on interest rates<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>10 Oct<\/td><td>USD<\/td><td>Prelim UoM Consumer Sentiment<\/td><td>54.6<\/td><td>55.1<\/td><td>&#8211;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Key Movements of the Week<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first week of October opened with a cautious tone as traders digested mixed macro signals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/en-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2026\/03\/codeZTU0MWUzMzJmODRlNTdlZWE4MDc0N2E1MjA3NWMwMjFfZnZTRUo1WlhjWkRHM21rWTFPODZ6d2RRTjRPSEs1TU1fVG9rZW46QThIdWJjc25VbzBXMEd4NEkwRGxUd0xCZ2RoXzE3NTk3Mzg2NTA6MTc1OTc0MjI1MF9WNA.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The US dollar index (USDX) extended its climb from the <strong>97.00<\/strong> monitored zone, opening the week with a gap higher.

A sustained move above USD <strong>62.665 <\/strong>would signal that buyers are regaining control, though fundamentals remain fragile amid uneven demand expectations.

The euro and pound have traded in tight ranges in recent sessions, but any hawkish tone could revive volatility as traders recalibrate rate-cut expectations for year-end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On <strong>Wednesday<\/strong>, the <strong>Reserve Bank of New Zealand<\/strong> will announce its <strong>Official Cash Rate<\/strong>, currently forecast at <strong>2.75 % versus 3.00 % previously<\/strong>. A dovish reduction would confirm policymakers\u2019 shift toward easing after months of slowing growth, potentially pressuring the New Zealand dollar. Traders are watching for selling opportunities on NZDUSD should price action make another attempt higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The focus then shifts to <strong>Friday<\/strong>, when the macro calendar accelerates. <strong>RBA Governor Bullock<\/strong> is set to speak, and markets expect remarks tied to Australia\u2019s softer inflation outlook and the potential for further easing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The same session will bring the all-important <strong>US Non-Farm Employment Report<\/strong>, with payrolls expected to rise by <strong>51 K versus 22 K previously<\/strong>, while the <strong>unemployment rate<\/strong> is projected to hold at <strong>4.3 %<\/strong>. Stronger-than-expected numbers could dampen speculation of additional Fed cuts, offering a temporary lift to the dollar; weaker data would reinforce the dovish bias that has underpinned recent market moves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Later in the day, the <strong>University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index<\/strong> rounds out the week, with forecasts pointing to <strong>54.6 versus 55.1<\/strong> previously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any surprise rebound could suggest consumer resilience despite policy uncertainty, while further softening would fit the slowing-growth narrative that has shaped investor sentiment through early October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking ahead, the following week will be heavier on data, featuring <strong>US CPI<\/strong>, <strong>PPI<\/strong>, and <strong>Retail Sales<\/strong>, alongside <strong>UK GDP<\/strong>, all due between <strong>15\u201316 October 2025<\/strong>. These releases will provide the next key test of whether the global easing narrative can sustain its grip on markets or if inflation pressures return to complicate the picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/trade-now\/\">Create your live VT Markets account<\/a><\/strong><strong> and <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/myaccount.vtmarkets.com\/login?_gl=1*5vyjdn*_gcl_au*Njc1MzM0NjY0LjE3NTEzNTM4MTc.*_ga*MjA5ODA0NDIzNC4xNzI3OTE1ODQ1*_ga_J26NL1ZVX7*czE3NTE4NzkxMDYkbzMwOCRnMSR0MTc1MTg3OTExOCRqNDgkbDAkaDA.*_ga_6XQ8153GYW*czE3NTE4NzkxMDgkbzU3JGcxJHQxNzUxODc5MTE4JGo1MCRsMCRoMA..*_ga_BG6LYEHPX1*czE3NTE4NzkxMDgkbzUkZzEkdDE3NTE4NzkxMTgkajUwJGwwJGgw*_ga_J8BRGZSREX*czE3NTE4NzkxMDgkbzUkZzEkdDE3NTE4NzkxMjIkajQ2JGwwJGgw*_ga_7CG6454YR5*czE3NTE4NzkxMDgkbzUkZzEkdDE3NTE4NzkxMjIkajQ2JGwwJGgw*_ga_69Z54R4H9N*czE3NTE4NzkxMDgkbzUkZzEkdDE3NTE4NzkxMjIkajQ2JGwwJGgw*_ga_CY2VCKFC3C*czE3NTE4NzkxMDgkbzUkZzEkdDE3NTE4NzkxMjIkajQ2JGwwJGgw*_ga_TXZ07R2C21*czE3NTE4NzkxMDgkbzUkZzEkdDE3NTE4NzkxMjUkajQzJGwwJGgw*_ga_17TMGY9BBE*czE3NTE4NzkxMDgkbzUkZzEkdDE3NTE4NzkxMjUkajQzJGwwJGgw*_ga_MWDVVSEVL5*czE3NTE4NzkxMDgkbzUkZzEkdDE3NTE4NzkxMjUkajQzJGwwJGgw*_ga_2QCC3S2748*czE3NTE4NzkxMDgkbzUkZzEkdDE3NTE4NzkxMjUkajQzJGwwJGgw*_ga_E7D2PCX624*czE3NTE4NzkxMjYkbzUkZzAkdDE3NTE4NzkxMjYkajYwJGwwJGgw*_ga_XJ4037XKK6*czE3NTE4NzkxMjYkbzUkZzAkdDE3NTE4NzkxMjYkajYwJGwwJGgw*_ga_EJCVQDC7VT*czE3NTE4NzkxMDgkbzUkZzEkdDE3NTE4NzkxMjYkajQyJGwwJGgw\">start trading<\/a><\/strong><strong> now.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The question isn\u2019t whether altcoin season will happen.
