Scroll sideways — the ticker stays in place
Methodology: we take the top-50 coins by market cap, excluding stablecoins and wrapped tokens, and compare each coin's 30-day return with Bitcoin's. The index is the share of outperformers, from 0 to 100. Classic altseason indexes use a 90-day window — our 30-day variant reacts faster but also flips more often.
How altseason is defined
Altseason is a period when a broad front of altcoins grows faster than Bitcoin. The formal definition is simple: if 75% of the market's top coins beat BTC over the chosen window, it is altseason; if fewer than 25% do, the market is in Bitcoin season and capital sits in the most liquid asset.

How the index is computed
The index on this page is computed from 30-day returns of the top-50 coins, stablecoins and wrapped tokens excluded. The shorter window makes it more responsive than the classic 90-day indexes: it notices a rotation into alts earlier, but it also produces more false swings in a sideways market — keep that in mind when reading it.
-
What the index is useful for
The practical use of the index is context, not a "buy alts at 75" trigger: in the altseason zone altcoin impulses get follow-through more often, while in the Bitcoin zone individual spikes tend to fade. The table below shows exactly who is pulling the index up — sometimes an "altseason" is driven by a narrow group of coins from a single narrative.
How to read it
The 25 and 75 zones
Below 25 is Bitcoin season: the vast majority of alts lose to BTC. Above 75 is altseason. In between is a mixed market with no clear leader.
Look at the composition, not just the number
An index of 60 driven by a broad front of coins and an index of 60 driven by one hot narrative are different markets. The table under the scale shows exactly which coins are beating Bitcoin.
Mind the 30-day window
A short window catches rotations faster but is noisy in chop. Classic indexes use 90 days — cross-check ours against them when you need the slow picture.
Combine with dominance
Falling BTC dominance with the index above 50 is a consistent signal of rotation into alts. When the two metrics diverge, dig into what is actually moving the market.
Frequently asked questions
What is the altseason index?
The share of top-50 coins by market cap (stablecoins and wrapped tokens excluded) that outperformed Bitcoin over the calculation window. At 0, everything loses to BTC; at 100, everything beats it.
Why 30 days and not 90?
Our market snapshots store 30-day coin returns, so the index uses that window and openly declares it. It is more responsive than the classic 90-day version but flips more often; check 90-day indexes for the slow picture.
Why are stablecoins and wrapped tokens excluded?
Their price is pegged to the dollar or an underlying asset — their "return" reflects the peg rather than investor choice and would distort the index.
Index above 75 — time to buy alts?
The index describes the distribution of returns that already happened, not the future. High values show broad altcoin strength but do not replace per-coin analysis: liquidity, volume, open interest.
