What’s the Status of the Altcoin Season Index After the Latest Drop? Major Changes

The cryptocurrency market’s performance over the past 90 days suggests that altcoins are currently underperforming against Bitcoin. According to CoinMarketCap’s Altcoin Seasonal Index, the index is currently at 34/100.

This indicates that the market is still in a “Bitcoin Season” trend rather than an “Altcoin Season.”

The index was measured at 59 last week and 68 last month. The annual peak was 87 points on December 4, 2024, coinciding with a strong altcoin season, while the low was recorded at 12 on April 26, 2025.

The Altcoin Seasonal Index measures the performance of the top 100 cryptocurrencies compared to Bitcoin over the past 90 days, providing insights into which direction the market is trending.

According to the last 90-day performance, the most notable increase among the top 100 cryptocurrencies was seen in MYX with a 3975.47% increase. It was followed by ASTER with a 1461.28% increase and ZEC with a 514.38% increase.

During this period, BNB managed to remain strong, rising by 73.87% and ETH by 25.01%.

However, the leading cryptocurrency, Bitcoin (BTC), has fallen 7.73% in the last 90 days, finishing lower on the list. However, despite BTC’s decline, the majority of altcoins are in the red, so it’s impossible to speak of an altcoin season in the current market.

Although many altcoins had previously outperformed Bitcoin over the last 90 days, the balance has completely shifted after the recent market crash, with BTC being relatively less affected.
