The altseason index, which measures the performance of altcoins against Bitcoin, reached 61 points, its highest level this year. While an altseason has not yet been officially declared, 59% of the top altcoins show positive performance compared to Bitcoin over the last 90 days.
Increase in Altcoin Activity
Recently, the altseason index hit 61 points, marking its peak in 2025. This indicates a growing strength of altcoins relative to Bitcoin. Currently, 59% of the leading altcoins are outperforming BTC, although this figure still falls below the 75% threshold required for a formal altseason declaration.
Performance of Ethereum and Other Altcoins
Ethereum (ETH) recorded significant weekly gains, reaching new all-time highs. Despite the recent pullback, its current price stands at $4,592.70, down 4.79% from its all-time high of $4,954.81. Nevertheless, Ethereum remains in a bullish structure, up 22.17% this month and 65.83% year-over-year.
Fundamental Metrics of Ethereum
Total assets under management for Ethereum have crossed $30.28 billion, with daily trading volume exceeding $61.2 billion. These factors indicate strong liquidity and growing interest in assets beyond Bitcoin.
Thus, despite the lack of an official altseason announcement, observed metrics and trends suggest a growing interest in altcoins, which may influence the future development of the cryptocurrency market.
