Everyone is curious if now is a good time to enter alts.


Honestly, it's super hard to answer with certainty.
This is where we currently stand:
โ†’ Altcoin Season Index: 37
โ†’ Fear & Greed Index: 39 (was sitting at 5 in Feb)
โ†’ BTC dominance: 56.6%
Compared to 2022, there's no structural collapse driving the fear.
No Luna, no FTX, no contagion.
Instead, it's all macro.
Tariffs, Fed uncertainty, and risk-off rotation are pushing capital into stablecoins and BTC.
Institutions now dominate volume, and they don't rotate the way retail did in 2021.
The classic BTC โ†’ ETH โ†’ alts cascade was retail FOMO, and compared to retail, institutions mainly stick to BTC/ETH and largely ignore small caps.
My honest opinion: the "alts doing 10x overnight" dynamic isn't coming back.
This time, the recovery will be slower and more selective than in 2021.
