Currently, all altcoins have dropped to the bottom, and it's just a bull market for Bitcoin alone. In fact, most retail investors are more concerned about whether altcoins will have a springtime again.
My answer is: Definitely yes.
In 2022, 2023, and 2024, there have been altcoin booms during bear market cycles. The widely recognized big bull market in 2025 will certainly have an altcoin season, although the era of universal price increases may be gone.
Strong altcoins will continue to reach new highs or even multiply, while weak altcoins may not even break the new highs of the bear market, potentially declining to zero. For altcoins to take off, the key still lies with Ethereum, as Ethereum is the king of altcoins; only Ethereum can lead altcoins out of their predicament.
Fortunately, the Prague upgrade of Ethereum is coming soon. Historically, every upgrade of Ethereum has brought about an altcoin market, and this time will be no exception!
The trend of Bitcoin does not change with the will of individual major players, but altcoins can. The major players in altcoins currently just lack a reason to rally, and the upgrade of Ethereum is undoubtedly the best choice. I believe that the Prague upgrade in April + the fact that altcoins have already dropped to the point of no return. All it takes is a spark, and retail investors' enthusiasm for altcoins will be reignited.
One more thing, that is, when the overall trend does not change, major players will create many traps in smaller directions, leaving most people behind. For example: ① In August 2022, most retail investors believed that the bear market would last until the end of the year, but a small altcoin rally occurred in August. ② In March 2023, retail investors thought altcoins would replicate the small bull market peak of June 2019, but the major players in altcoins ran away three months in advance. ③ In October 2023, retail investors thought the market would crash like it did in March 2020, and they hesitated to invest, but in October 2023 altcoins collectively surged until March 2024. ④ In March 2024, retail investors thought the market would soar after the March 2020 crash, but altcoins continued to decline. ⑤ In January 2025, retail investors thought altcoins would charge forward like in previous bull markets, but altcoins began to decline early and have continued since. ⑥ So, what’s next??? Will retail investors believe a disaster like the one on May 19 is coming? Hesitating to invest, will the market choose a direction that most retail investors do not expect? I think it’s very possible; let’s wait and see.
