Will altcoins shine or fade in BTC's 2025 surge?

[Vx1]

I got some alts on my wallet nowadays, it's totally draining with its price and I can't handle my emotions anymore because Bitcoin surge really pulled it down.
Maybe, only miracle can trigger alts to shine again someday. Well many of us waited for that and up until now there's no positive outcome happens.

If the Altcoin you hold is a Top Altcoin, then you don't need to worry too much. Because top Altcoins usually recover faster, it's different if you hold an Altcoin that is not yet popular, you might lose. In crypto, this is indeed our risk, if we don't profit then we will lose. So we have to be ready for all that.

Having in mind that altcoin investment is a gamble will help a lot on how to follow it up because investing with the amount, not your spare money will always make you have regrets each time the market experiences a price decline.

As for me, I don't get myself pissed off at any time of the day when the market is downgrading because I know it will not be long before the market will turn to green.

A good mentality is very much needed in cryptocurrency investment, so that we do not easily panic and are not easily wrong in making decisions when something we do not want happens in our investment.
The price of Crypto which is very fluctuating sometimes makes us profit quickly and vice versa. So we must be very wise when we are here, do not panic easily and must be able to choose to generate positive profits.

With btc potentially hitting $150k-$200k in 2025,

Although Bitcoin is in a beautiful position now and we have seen that it was very low in 2020, it was around 17k to 20k. And we have seen that since 2024, Bitcoin's price has been pumping a lot, Bitcoin has touched around 100k. And I have also seen that after that, although it slowly comes to dumping, it is around 80k. But due to this 20k dumping of Bitcoin, the price of almost all coins has decreased a lot, it has decreased by about 10% to 15%. So we can say with hope that we will see a new bright future for Bitcoin in 2025 to 2026, which may be 200k.

ATH $108,786, Jan 20, 2025 is certainly very high right now and when it is now corrected and is at a price of $80K+, the price is still very high and, even though it has been corrected by almost more than 20%, Bitcoin is very popular and will give a surprise when it enters Q4 later.
If bitcoin experiences a correction, usually all potential altcoins are also disturbed and corrected, but they may not be as big as bitcoin, or there could be more, and it all depends on the market.
Is what you said about bitcoin reaching $ 200K possible? Everyone is also hoping and we are just waiting.

I don’t think BTC can reach $200k by the end of year even though we were all optimistic in the beginning of the year and was expecting it to happen. But crypto will always be unpredictable, no one would have imagined a tarrif war would happen which is one of the factors affecting the fluctuation of BTC right now even though it has been down for two months now.

[DavetJack]

do you think altcoins like Ethereum or SOL will see bigger gains, or will they get overshadowed by btc's dominance? I'm torn on where to invest my extra cash.

But we know that Bitcoin is the largest currency in the crypto market, and Ethereum is in second place. But we have seen that although the price of Bitcoin is in a good position, the price of Alt Ethereum coin is in a lot of dumping. But we can predict that it will also become a very good price within the next 2025.

I remember when we were having the discussion of Bitcoin reaching that amount after it surpasses the $100k last year, so with the force it was moving everybody was calling there individual price of Bitcoin to be by the end this year but the moment we enter the new year we couldn't see the movement again and  now we are not even certain of anything so $200k is not a priority because it will have to pass $140k before we can hope for more prices, so it will go up but likely not this price.

That's one thing with bull run, when Bitcoin is dumping in the market, people become afraid to buy and says all sort of stuff to justify that the market is bad but when the market is bullish, they can call $1b/Bitcoin if they have it in their mind, don't blame them that's how the mind of people does in every bull run, everyone says things they want to see.

If you are long term Bitcoin holder, all that price predictions shouldn't be something that should worry you, your aim is to continue to hold and when there is a bull run you have always have in mind, you can sell if your price target has been reach at that point and if it hasn't, just continue to hold.

I can understand why you are cautious about high expectations set mostly at the end of last year. When the price began to decline after that intensive jump, people start looking for something that they have been anticipating. The $200K notion was common in the media but it should be known that market truth is different from the public truth. Sometimes, it takes time for the market to catch up, and that is why there is a continuous development of new achievements. You are realistic for understanding that the next surge can not be passed without going through some critical points. This indicates that you are not consumed with impulsive tendencies but still analysing the movement in a calm manner.

Initially when the market was much younger I mean when it start this year with high market increases I was thinking that it would reflects to all altcoin but I was wrong, and if Bitcoin could hit 109k it's assumed that altcoin like Ethereum should also make out some doubling in price maybe nearly to touch back it's previous ATH and then surpass to around 7k or 10k

[Basedjack]

It is not possible to say when the market will be like this. However, if you notice that when the price of Bitcoin increases, other coins also increase. When the movement of Bitcoin increases, Altcoin wakes up a bit. If you look at the current market, Ethereum, Doge, Solana have decreased in value compared to this year. Although the price of Bitcoin has decreased, it will rise again with its resistance. So if you are interested in investing, it would be better for you to invest in Bitcoin.

Now the tables have turned and we need to see the market becoming confident again.

It's a battle of who is going to hodl for how long before the new ATH would be achieved, imo.

And we should always remember to stay patient and fix some of the gains we are going to start seeing.

I think you probably didn't notice, but altcoins tend to be weaker when compared to Bitcoin, especially when it comes to price recovery. In the current drop in Bitcoin's price, when it went to around $74k, almost the whole market crashed, but before the crash, when Bitcoin was around $84k, ETH was trading around $1830 or $1850 or something, then Bitcoin dropped to around $74k, and ETH dropped to $1360 or something, but, Bitcoin then managed to bet back to $83k once but ETH couldn't go higher than $1,690 or something.

This is not only about ETH; many other altcoins showed the same thing, such as SOL, which was around $128 or something when Bitcoin dropped. Then, Bitcoin recovered, but it couldn't go above $120. So, this proves that altcoins are weaker when it comes to price recoveries and this is why Bitcoin will always be the king of this market.

Ethereum has difficulty following bitcoin's price movement when it hits ATh, because in my opinion bitcoin's dominance is still high and investors have not shifted to invest in bitcoin.
I see many investors who are still waiting and patient for the altcoin season which is expected to occur in Q4 this year.
many predictions say that, but all are difficult to predict

in market conditions like this many people experience huge losses due to the drop in the price of bitcoin by 10% but if we look at the movement of the bitcoin market price from year to year it has actually skyrocketed, meaning that this shows that bitcoin has great potential, even bitcoin has also become the main head of all coins, in fact we are not surprised to see market prices like, maybe for new traders conditions like this are the worst and for old traders this is a movement that is usually passed over time.

You know as the market is we can't predict or give exactly when it's going to rise but as an investor or trader it's better to remain guided than being so loose with the market. Of course the market has given us lot of opportunities to refill our bags with some sats at a very low price while waiting for a day like this to come.

        -     It is possible that your opinion will happen mate, but honestly, the question is always when will it start? This is what many of us are really waiting for, because the market is very unpredictable. We only get an idea when we hear about upcoming positive news, which becomes a way for other investors to be even more cautious because they think that on the day of the event itself or on the date there will be a price rally in bitcoin.

And when there is no such news, the market movement is usually sideways, as if we were on a roller coaster, and this has happened several times in the history
of Bitcoin and even altcoins, right?
