The Altcoin Season Index has taken a significant drop, from 80 to 39 over the past month.

Geopolitical tensions and uncertain trade conditions have contributed to a growth of the global markets today. Bitcoin, which is worth more than $107,000, fell 6.59% in the week to this point. But the investors are returning because of Bitcoin, which in these uncertain times they believe to be “a safe haven.”
Altcoin Season Index Dips as Bitcoin Gains Market Dominance
Prominent investor sentiment measures like the Altcoin Season Index, are at 39 at the moment (as opposed to 80 seen earlier in the year). This autumn also suggested increasing cautiousness of the traders as more step away from altcoin and direct their attention to Bitcoin. Previously free flowing capital is now being directed into Bitcoin and ‘safer’ assets versus altcoins.

It led to the broader cryptocurrency market, minus bitcoin and stablecoins coins, also down, also falling to one point one trillion. The fall so far does seem to reflect more skittish behaviour on the part of investors, particularly with tensions between China and the US increasing. These political matters in geopolitics are forcing most investors to opt for Bitcoin as a relatively safe-haven solution during these turbulent times.
Fear and Greed Index Plunges as Bitcoin Tests Key Support Level
Together with the Altcoin Season Index, the Fear and Greed Index has also plunged into the fear zone at 23. The index is a popular measure for the market outlook based in part on sentiment of investors. A fear zone and let reading is confirmation of panic selling and potential liquidation that can lead to a bearish market fall.

Though altcoins have since come off the boil, this market reset may be an occasion for buyers of select altcoins to some traders. Historically, when the Altcoin Season Index score is below 25, it has indicated the end of market correction and the beginning of a new recovery cycle. This implies the investor who accumulated a huge sum of altcoins at such time might be ripe to cash out when it is productive.
Julio Moreno, head of research at CryptoQuant pointed out that Bitcoin is probing the level where previously there was a lot of gold around $100,000 and has been a key price point while in this zone before for many moves up in this market. When it’s sustained above this point, then Bitcoin can grow up again to the minimum level of $120,000 and then start the growth all over again.

With altcoins cooling off and Bitcoin resting at the center of the market, observers are indicating that the crypto market is possibly positioned to enter its next bull run. And patient and tactful altcoin decisions would have perhaps made a profit to the ones that are patient and good in choosing as the market would move again, this time back towards appreciation.
