{"content":"THE BIGGEST MISTAKE TRADERS ARE TALKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW I recently asked the community one simple question: “Which coin do you wish you hadn’t bought this cycle?” The most common reply? Altcoins. Many traders admitted putting their hopes into names like $OM , $ICP and $MAV expecting breakouts. But instead, these coins barely moved or lost value, while Bitcoin and Ethereum surged ahead. It’s been a frustrating ride for those banking on early alt rallies. A recurring thought in these responses: the market is overloaded with new projects. Too many coins are launching without real utility, making it harder to spot strong long-term plays. Right now, capital is sticking with the leaders mainly BTC and ETH while smaller tokens are overlooked. So what needs to change for altcoins to shine? Sentiment must turn euphoric (Greed Index 80+) Bitcoin needs to hit fresh highs Some dominance must shift from majors to mid and micro caps Historically, altcoins explode after Bitcoin cools off. Meme coins and low-caps tend to follow but it all comes in waves. We aren’t there just yet. But the signs are building. Watch closely, stay sharp, and be ready when altseason hits, it moves fast and hits hard. {future}(MAVUSDT) {spot}(ICPUSDT) {spot}(OMUSDT)","images":["https://d2kdcqywr8ua22.cloudfront.net/uploadfile/article/blog/2025052025/05/23/939eb1d406ce4cbbbfad02a26b810495.png"],"tags":[],"tradingPairs":["MAV/USDT"],"quotearticleid":0}
