Fake Season Index stays above 60 for 5 straight days! Is the money finally starting to rotate?
The recent hype around altcoins may not be a coincidence.
According to the latest data, CoinMarketCap’s Altseason Index is currently at 60 and has stayed above 60 for five consecutive days. This index measures, over the past 90 days, the percentage of the Top 100 crypto assets that have outperformed BTC.
But here’s the key number:
60 ≠ an official altseason.
By CMC’s standards, only when at least 75% of the Top 100 have outperformed BTC is it defined as “altseason.”
So a more accurate way to say it is:
Capital rotation is strengthening, but it hasn’t reached a full-blown altseason yet.
Why is the 60 level worth watching?
① BTC’s gains start to spread
Previously, the market mainly revolved around BTC. As BTC’s upward pace slows, some funds start looking toward ETH and other high-volatility assets.
② Altcoin performance begins to diverge
It’s not “all altcoins going up together” anymore. Instead, different popular narratives—AI, RWA, DeFi, payments, and others—rotate to attract capital.
③ Staying above 60 for consecutive days matters more than a one-day spike
A brief surge to 60 means little. Maintaining a high level over multiple days indicates that the relative performance over the past 90 days is really starting to change.
However, it’s still some distance from 75.
And BTC still holds about 58%+ of the market share, suggesting the market hasn’t fully entered a broad, all-out altcoin rotation phase yet.
So next, the focus is on:
Can 60 keep holding → can it break through 65/70 → and ultimately whether there’s an opportunity to get close to 75.
If the index continues to rise, market attention may shift from:
BTC → ETH → large-cap altcoins → more niche sectors
gradually spreading out.
Altseason can’t be stamped as official yet, but the signal that money is starting to spill outward is becoming increasingly clear.
