Recently, Zade, the Chief Operating Officer of the 2049 platform, proposed a thought-provoking point: the traditional concept of an all-encompassing alt season may no longer occur. He pointed out that the cycles in the current crypto assets market have become shorter and more frequent, and Bitcoin's influence on other markets has significantly decreased, possibly even dropping to zero. This means that Bitcoin has not only detached from the influence of the stock market but may also be separating from the so-called alt season concept. Zade believes that funds are unlikely to flow in large volumes from Bitcoin to alts.
However, this viewpoint has sparked discussions and doubts within the industry. Some analysts point out that the emergence of alt season is a natural law of market operations and is unlikely to disappear completely. They believe that even in the case of a significant rise in Bitcoin prices, some investors will still choose to allocate funds to altcoin projects with greater potential. For example, if Bitcoin's price reaches $150,000, some investors may feel that the upward potential of Bitcoin is limited and will turn to seek other crypto assets that may offer higher returns.
The logic behind this viewpoint is that compared to the possible 20% increase of Bitcoin, some high-quality altcoin projects may easily achieve a 50% or even higher increase. This difference in returns may attract some investors to adjust their asset allocation. As a long-standing investment saying goes: 'A 50% return can shake human nature, while a 100% return may push people to take risks.' This reflects the eternal pursuit of high returns in human nature.
Although the market environment is constantly changing, the fundamental characteristics of human nature have remained relatively stable over thousands of years of history. Therefore, while the form of the comprehensive alt season may change, the pursuit of high return opportunities in the market may continue to exist in new ways.
In this context, investors need to more cautiously assess market risks and opportunities, balancing short-term gains with long-term value. At the same time, regulators may need to adapt to this new market dynamic by formulating more flexible and effective policies to protect investor interests and maintain market stability.

Alts will never die! Just keep an eye on them and that's it.
