Forget the doom and gloom, altcoin season is not over, it’s barely even kicked off! That’s the bold claim from Michaël van de Poppe, founder of MN Trading Capital, who’s calling out the naysayers on May 27 via X.
I don't understand why people start claiming that a bear market is around the corner for #Altcoins.

They are literally on the bottom.
The BTC valuations have been declining massively.
The money printer is about to get started.
The final easy 12-24 months are coming.
Sure, many altcoins have rallied in the last 30 days, but are still playing catch-up compared to their prices before Trump’s January inauguration. Take Solana (SOL), which gained 17.84% in 30 days, trading at $174.17, but is still down 32% since January 19. XRP climbed 1.98% to $2.31 but remains 29.35% below January 19 levels.
Van de Poppe’s optimism comes as Bitcoin (BTC) traders get twitchy after hitting a $111,970 all-time high with seven straight green weeks. Some expect a pullback.
Altcoins Ready to Explode While Bitcoin Holds the Throne
But other crypto gurus agree with van de Poppe’s bullish vibes. Davinci Jeremie says altcoins will “turn into a wildfire soon,” and trader Moustache insists, “altseason isn’t just a meme—it’s coming, ladies and gentlemen.”
#Bitcoin started the fire.

Soon, #Altcoins will turn it into a wildfire. 🔥
Many are watching Ethereum (ETH) closely since alt season often follows ETH outperforming BTC. The ETH/BTC ratio recently jumped 26.74% in 30 days to 0.02430, hinting at a potential altcoin rally.
Still, CoinMarketCap’s Altcoin Season Index, tracking top 100 altcoins vs. Bitcoin over 90 days, says Bitcoin’s winning with a low score of 24 out of 100.
Leading the charge in gains? Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) skyrocketed 316.72%, Four (FORM) shot up 148.15%, and Virtuals Protocol (VIRTUAL) rose 107.47% in the last 90 days.
So, altcoin skeptics, buckle up: the party might just be getting started.
