Altcoin Season

Altcoin Season tracks how much large on-chain flow (last 24h) is rotating into major alts versus Bitcoin and stablecoins — the PEPS complement to BTC dominance for spotting alt-capital cycles.

How it works

• The gauge reads the PIE market analyst cache, refreshed on the intelligence engine schedule.
• Regime labels: ≥58% Altcoin Season, 52–58% Altcoin Lean, 48–52% Neutral, 42–48% Bitcoin Lean, <42% Bitcoin Season.
• The index is 100 − BTC dominance when not stored explicitly — both metrics share the same flow model.
• Context cards show BTC dominance (inverse), ETF flow proxy, stablecoin activity and the internal fear/greed estimate.
• The trend chart plots historical altcoin season readings from pc_analysis_market when database history is available.

What to consider

• Flow-based alt season is not the Blockchain Center altcoin index or CoinMarketCap alt market-cap share.
• A rising alt season score can reflect stablecoin outflows into alts without broad spot alt rallies.
• Pair with Bitcoin Dominance and Market Scanner before increasing alt basket exposure.
• Sudden jumps often follow whale alt transfers — validate with Whale Tracker and Exchange Flow.
• Not financial advice — regime labels describe on-chain flow bias, not guaranteed alt outperformance.
