That is the difference between 2017 and 2020, we are not at the same situation anymore.

It is more accurate to compare 2017 and 2021 that is the current year. The bitcoin is over heating and it will be paused, cooled down soon. Altcoins are heating up a lot in the last month and I see the altcoin season in next one to two months but I expect to see it in January 2021.

Quote

We are getting companies buying tens of thousands of bitcoin and storing them, back in 2017 we had regular people and maybe some whales but everyone bought and sold, when price went down everyone sold so it was quicker to sell, now when it goes down a bit, those major companies still keep on holding which prevents the price from going down too much, that is the biggest difference compared to 2017.

When the time for altcoin season comes, the game is set for altcoins, they will rise in 2 pairs, in BTC and in USDT. Altcoins will rise more in USDT than what bitcoin will have. In altcoin seasons, whales will boost altcoin price in BTC pairs very much and we know the bitcoin price is bullish.

Okay so whats the ratio of price now between btc & alts? Back in early 2017 Btc was cheap meaning you got less alts when you exchanged btc for alts right?

So what about now when btc is at new ATH prices, do we get more altcoins now when exchanging the btc for alts because btc is worth more now?

Now 1 btc can buy you 33 eth's. Back in 2018 alt season 1 btc bought you around 13 eth's.

So how do we look at price ratios on CoinGecko and is it best to trade alts with BTC pairs or Eth pairs or USDT pairs to maximise gains for this upcoming alt season?

The last altseason was just a drop in the bucket compared to what this is going to be. If you want to maximize your profit,

like a water drop but mate the altseason last time was huge in value and in coverage but if there will be another ,

that will not be water drop anymore but that will be bucket of water that has been poured on a big water container because we have waited for this for so long ,

drops of water are now filled in a bucket and ready to be poured and after that we are going to wait again for another .7th alt season isnt the last but it will be followed by 8th , 9th , 10th and many more numbers .

As far i feel for the market it is now rising, there is no need to argue too much for the reason that the increase is not as expected by everyone, but as it happens, almost all altcoins are all increasing.

But more precisely we are still waiting for the altcoin to explode, as mentioned by the OP i think history will repeat itself and we will have the next alt season again. But i don't think things will be so predictable, i agree that history will repeat itself but altcoins will grow in waves and reach new ATH.

History repeats itself, by means of repetition - based on market fluctuation and activities - bitcoin is targeting ATH to ATH this closed year ended 2020 and to earliest 2021. With a lot of speculations, we must be careful about the activities of the market right now as the latest huge transfers of more than <10,000 BTC had already diminished over time. So, we may see the correction for a bit this time. Alts season correlates to a decrease in BTC price dominance and price against altcoins (increased). Alts are already making a little increase in its price but we may not yet be seeing those ATH like what happen to the 2017 bull run, since the market of BTC is possibly not yet at its peak. Trying to see a little correction in order to hit another ATH. If a sudden sell-off will be observed in the bitcoin market, perhaps these alts season may exist.

Times are changing back 2017 the market is in an experimental period, so many altcoins are pumped without getting proof that they have usage to the community, investors have proven that only Bitcoin and a handful of coins and tokens have use case for the development of this technology, all the others are just pump and dump or now here gone tomorrow projects.

Bitcoin price is stabilising now between 32-33k so why Alts not pumping?

Bitcoin is at $34,000 and can almost reach $40,000, much higher than 2017, so I believe it's not time to talk about Bitcoin's bubble or drop. so we will have a better Altcoins season in 2017.

For this time I think it will be different from the previous year even now the price of bitcoin exceeds 2017 and we expect the current price will last a long time at the highest number so that we can get the results of our investment in some altcoins, and we can see the altcoin market is starting to bangkin and now it is time to choose altcoins that have potential for us to hold, and I am sure this year the crypto world will carve out a history that we cannot forget.

That is the difference between 2017 and 2020, we are not at the same situation anymore. Sure we are doing awesome just like 2017, it was 700 to 20k back then, it is now around 7k to 33k today, so it is all great and I still think mainstream media is not even fully caught up yet, when that happens and everyone gets in, we are going to be even bigger. However the biggest difference we have is the big obvious one, the elephant in the room, the big major companies.

We are getting companies buying tens of thousands of bitcoin and storing them, back in 2017 we had regular people and maybe some whales but everyone bought and sold, when price went down everyone sold so it was quicker to sell, now when it goes down a bit, those major companies still keep on holding which prevents the price from going down too much, that is the biggest difference compared to 2017.

Personally, I think something like this should be.
All the same, Bitcoin quite accurately repeats the movement of the last bull run, plus the domination is extremely close to the one that was before the last season of altcoins.
And the altcoins themselves are already starting to grow a little. How far this growth will go worries me the most.

yes it looks like in a moment you will see altcoin season .. it will not be long and it looks like it has started now. then buy altcoins right now while the price is still cheap .. maybe what happened in 2017 will happen again. but to get altcoin season you have to wait for bitcoin prices to stabilize.

Keep it Simple guys :)

history will repeat itself, but i don't think the altseason will coming in the same date just like the past my friend
maybe we should wait longer for the altseason in this year, if bitcoin continues the rally

oh yes of course, don't worry, there are already signs, Doge is up 150%, Ethereum is above $ 700, and Litecoin is in a bullish trend,
of course these are signs to watch out for when the altcoin season will start, it's just that bitcoin dominance is still high and predicted to be reaches 90%,
so just accumulate the altcoins that you choose and hold, 2018 will repeat itself this year.

You mentioned few alcoins that grows, but Bicoins price is still high and also grows. As well as its dominance is still high, while in first post it is mentioned that in 2018 altseason was when Bitcoins dominance was around 35%. Only few more days till January 7th and altseason is not even close. Only few alts are close to their ATH, imo, it is early to count altseason to start.

As we have all seen, Bitcoin seems to have peaked and Altcoins are picking up steam, I have not doubt Altcoins are going to pump and some are going to pump greatly, but not all these Altcoins are going to pump because most of the 2016-2018 project do not have funds again to push the project forward

What you mean do not have funds again for 2016-18 Alts? So you saying only the new name alts will survive? What about history and establishment of an older alt, does this count nowadays in good fundamentals of a alt?

Looks like now Bitcoin is off steam and the money is flowing now into selective alts only

Alts like Ether, Dogecoin, Litecoin and a few more are selective. Looks like a strategic selective of Alts with the least risk of going flatline dead near 0.

Shall we assume De-Fi 2020 trend is dead now?

When I say alt season I mean when every alt got pumped back in 2017-18. Now I only see selective Alts being pumped.

Apart from Ether, Litecoin, Dogecoin which other Alts are safe like these? Dogecoin is safe alt cause Elon Musk behind it Cheesy

Ripple XRP would have been $1 today each but that SEC regulator case is holding ripple back in this selective alt race.

The sad thing is if Bitcoin dumps from its pump all alts will correlate and dump too meaning Bitcoin is like the SEC regulator crashing alts like ripple when bitcoin goes down.

Can a alt apart from stablecoins ever be unique and dont have correlation to bitcoin? Even the alt king Eth is correlated to btc.

Some altcoins are already showing good growth. Dot has doubled recently, Litecoin is now very expensive and ether has almost doubled in the last month. The altcoin season has already begun.

So when there are some Altcoins that are already occupying double the price, it is called Altcoin season? because some people are waiting for that Altcoin season they don't know when it will actually happen.

Today, ethereum has come close to its ATH. And this ATH may be exceeded in the near future, followed by a new ATH. In addition to Ethereum, most altcoins also rose very much. And at the moment when the price of Bitcoin will be in the flat, the growth of altcoins will continue.

Tweets on Twitter saying Alts wont have a alt season until Ethereum beats its past All Time High Price, is this true?

- Bitcoin price goes up, Alts stay flat?

- Bitcoin price goes down, Alts go down too?

- Bitcoin price is flat, Alts go super high?

- Best time to sell Alts when Bitcoin Dominance is low?

Ethereum is still like 50% away from its all time high meaning there's still a long way to go for Ethereum to get there so confidence into Alts wont come back until Eth surpasses its All Time High otherwise Bitcoin will continue to dominate with higher price and be King to market dominance of 90+% thus Alts will die when that happens?

Many people especially the newbies in crypto had started losing hope that Bitcoin would cross $20,000 before last year ended but it didn't only cross the $20k but also crossed 30k with above $4,000. If that can happen to Bitcoin, it can happen to any other cryptocurrency that gives what people want in term of it development and marketing.

I also think so, because this is the biggest bitcoin volatility to date, where the domination of BTC is above 70% and is the highest number as long as BTC exists.
maybe until btc is stable for a while that's where we can see the alt season.
but for now it cannot be ascertained because the price of btc tends to rise every day and only briefly makes corrections and then rises again after that happens.
