Altcoin Frenzy: 4 Signs September is the Month of Crypto Madness! 🎢💰

Ah, the altcoin market, that tempestuous siren, is but a whisker away from its zenith, darling. Analysts, those soothsayers of the digital realm, predict a September so scintillating it would make the Peacock Dance of 1895 seem a mere waltz. 🦚✨

What, you ask, are the harbingers of this altcoin apocalypse? Fear not, for I shall elucidate with the wit of a dandy and the precision of a Swiss timepiece. Below, the signs that even the most jaded investor might find irresistible. 🕵️♂️💎

1. Altcoin Trading Volume: The New Darling of the Ball 🌟

Maartunn, that astute observer of the crypto carnival, notes that altcoin trading volume has surged in September, while Bitcoin and Ethereum volumes have wilted like a forgotten orchid. Capital, my dear, is fleeing the old guard for the nouveau riche of altcoins. 📈🚀

CryptoQuant’s data, a veritable treasure trove of trivia, reveals that altcoins now command 37.2% of the spot volume, leaving Ethereum (31.8%) and Bitcoin (30.9%) in the dust. A liquidity rotation, you say? More like a grand exodus to the land of mid- and small-caps. 🌪️💸

“Altseason Hints? Ethereum’s volume is as passé as last season’s waistcoat,” Maartunn quipped. And indeed, the decline in ETH’s volume is but a chapter in the well-worn tale of capital’s fickle heart. 🧥💔

Maartunn, ever the pessimist, adds that 8 out of 10 indicators in CryptoQuant’s bull/bear score are bearish for Bitcoin. Poor Bitcoin, left at the altar while altcoins dance the night away. 👰♂️🕺

Bitcoin dominance? Declining. Altcoin market cap? Rising. The writing is on the wall, or rather, the blockchain. 📉📈

2. Altcoin Season Index: A Score of 80, Darling! 🎉

The Altcoin Season Index (ASI), that arbiter of crypto chic, has hit 80 points, its highest in 2025. A score so high, it would make even the most stoic investor blush. 🌶️💃

ASI, for the uninitiated, measures the performance of the top 50 coins (stablecoins excluded) against Bitcoin over 90 days. With 75% of coins outperforming BTC, it’s clear: altcoins are the belles of the ball. 👑💃

During the acceleration phase, ASI could climb to 100 before the music stops. A testament to the market’s insatiable appetite for risk. 🎲🔥

Analyst Lau, ever the historian, notes that alt seasons last from 17 to 117 days. “Now we wait,” he said, with the patience of a man who knows the crypto clock ticks to its own rhythm. ⏳🕰️

3. TOTAL3: The Bullish Triangle of Destiny 🔺

TOTAL3, the total altcoin market cap excluding BTC and ETH, has been forming a bullish triangle so massive it would make the Pyramids of Giza envious. And now, it teeters on the brink of a breakout. 🏜️🚪

Charts, those modern oracles, show TOTAL3 testing its all-time monthly highs, with volume and price pressing against resistance like a crowd at a Wilde reading. A breakout would herald an altseason so powerful it would rival the cycles of 2019-2021. 📊🌋

Simon Dedic, founder of MoonrockCapital, calls this the most important structural signal. “Imagine calling for the top while TOTAL3 is on the verge of breaking out of a 4-year wedge,” he said, with the disdain of a man who knows better. 🛑🚀

If TOTAL3 breaks above $1.16 trillion, investor confidence will soar like a phoenix. With no historical resistance, the rally’s ceiling will be dictated by retail investors’ FOMO. A spectacle, indeed. 🦅🚀

4. Exchanges: The Listing Frenzy Continues 🎪

Liquidity in altcoins has sparked a listing spree in September, with exchanges vying for dominance like debutantes at a ball. 🌪️👗

  • Upbit has added nearly one token per day (LINEA, PUMP, HOLO, OPEN, WLD, FLOCK, RED) to maintain its 50.6% market share against Bithumb (46%). A true marathon of listings. 🏃♂️💨
  • Bithumb listed EUL, WLFI, LINEA, and PUMP, not to be outdone. 🏆🚀
  • Coinbase listed KMNO, DOLO, LAYER, SPX, AWE, and WLFI, joining the fray. 🎉📈

These listings, my dear, are the fuel for the altcoin fire, attracting speculation and volume in a self-perpetuating cycle of euphoria. A feedback loop so delightful, it would make even the most cynical investor smile. 🔄😊
