The post Altcoin Season 2025 Will Be Bigger Than 2021 – Here\u2019s Why<\/a> appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News<\/a><\/p>\n

The crypto market is showing signs of a major shift toward altcoins, with charts hinting at the start of a possible \u201caltcoin season.\u201d A leading crypto analyst, Trader Tardigrade, highlights the TOTAL3 index, which tracks altcoins excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum, forming one of the clearest bullish setups in years. <\/p>\n

If confirmed, it could push the altcoin market cap to $4.37 trillion, a nearly 290% surge.<\/p>\n

This Classic Chart Pattern Could Trigger Altcoin Season<\/h2>\n

According to the Trader Tardigrade<\/a>, the weekly TOTAL3 chart is showing a textbook \u201cCup & Handle\u201d pattern, one of the clearest bullish setups in years. This pattern usually shows the market may rise after a pause.<\/p>\n

The cup formed over several years, starting from the 2021 highs around $1.13 trillion, dropping to the 2023 bear market low of $0.287 trillion, and then climbing back to the 2024 highs near $1.16 trillion. <\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Now, in 2025, the handle is forming just below key resistance, setting up a potential breakout. If the breakout happens, the altcoin market could surge to $4.37 trillion, a nearly 290% increase from current levels. <\/p>\n

Such growth would indicate a strong altcoin season, where altcoins as a group could outperform Bitcoin and Ethereum.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Dominance Drops, Capital Rotates to Altcoins<\/h2>\n

One of the clearest signals for the altcoin season is Bitcoin\u2019s dominance falling below 59%<\/a>, showing that investors are moving capital from Bitcoin into altcoins. While Bitcoin stays strong above $120,000, smaller crypto projects are attracting more attention and liquidity.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Analysts also note that the altcoin market has been in an unusually long accumulation phase, longer than before the 2017 and 2021 altcoin seasons. <\/p>\n

Top Coins Poised For Rally<\/h2>\n

According to Tardigrade, some leading altcoins, including SOL, XRP, ADA, Doge, Shib, etc, are likely to benefit the most from this rally.<\/p>\n

So what\u2019s at stake?
TOTAL3 heading to ~4.37T = nearly +290% growth in alts from current levels.
That kind of expansion implies:
\u2022Large caps (SOL, XRP, ADA) \u2192 strong rallies
\u2022Meme coins (DOGE, SHIB) \u2192 explosive moves
\u2022Mid\/small caps \u2192 potential 3\u20135x plays<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Solana (SOL), trading around $231, could lead the major coins, with a potential rise toward $1,000 if momentum and ecosystem growth continue. Dogecoin (DOGE), at $0.253, may trigger retail-driven rallies, possibly reaching $1.50 during a peak altcoin cycle.<\/p>\n

On top of it, smaller and mid-cap altcoins could see 3\u20135x gains, echoing historical patterns where capital shifts from Bitcoin and Ethereum into altcoins during market surges.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
