Total market capitalization returned to $4.06 trillion during the Thursday morning Asian trading session. It is the highest the digital asset market has been since late August as fears over a \u2018Septembear\u2019 slump diminish.<\/p>\n
Bitcoin reclaimed $114,000 for the first time in almost three weeks, but the big move has largely been driven by altcoins.<\/p>\n
Altcoin market capitalization is close to 2025 highs and almost at the same level as it was during the 2021 bull market, when it reached $1.7 trillion.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m stunned by the fact that people claim that the bull market is almost over. It hasn\u2019t even begun,\u201d said<\/a> MN Fund founder Micha\u00ebl van de Poppe before adding, \u201cMost altcoins have been downtrending for 1.5 to 3 years.\u201d<\/p>\n Altseason<\/a> indicators have all surged this week, hitting their highest levels this year.\u00a0CoinGlass and the Blockchain Center\u2019s altcoin season indexes have reached 76, which is an indication that altseason is underway.<\/p>\n The metrics are derived from the performance of leading altcoins compared to Bitcoin over the past three months.\u00a0The indicator is in \u201caltseason territory\u201d and is at its highest level since December, said Coin Bureau founder Nic Puckrin.<\/p>\n Welcome to #Altseason<\/a>.<\/p>\n It\u2019s time for massive wealth creation. pic.twitter.com\/wbjiL7hy3f<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Carl Moon (@TheMoonCarl) September 11, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n\n However, not all were convinced that altseason is upon us.<\/p>\n \u201cAmid a fragile US economic outlook marked by slowing growth and persistent inflation, altcoins continue facing headwinds as institutional capital remains heavily concentrated in Bitcoin,\u201d Nassar Achkar, Chief Strategy Officer at the CoinW exchange, told CryptoPotato<\/em>.<\/p>\n \u201cWhile capital rotations persist in crypto, BTC\u2019s dominance continues to reign, forcing altcoins to demonstrate real utility and adoption to be considered for portfolio allocations.\u201d<\/p>\n Bitcoin dominance is currently at 58% (on TradingView), down 12% from 66% in June, primarily due to the rise of Ethereum, which has seen its market share double since April.<\/p>\n $BTC.D<\/a> continues to go down.
