At the same time, the Altcoin Season Index has jumped by more than 10 points in less than 24 hours, reinforcing a classic BTC-to-altcoin rotation setup.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Historically, however, altcoin rallies rarely sustain momentum unless <a href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/predictions\/ethereum-price-prediction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ethereum [ETH]<\/a>, the largest altcoin, starts gaining strength against Bitcoin [BTC], allowing deeper capital to flow across the broader altcoin market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> As the chart below shows, the ETH\/BTC ratio has rebounded around 0.7% after four consecutive weeks of decline.

During the previous February-April cycle, the ETH\/BTC ratio jumped by nearly 15%, pushing the Altcoin Season Index up more than 40% before topping near 55. This aligned with the BTC.D running into resistance around the 60%-level, creating a similar rotation narrative.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And yet, despite the improving structure, the setup never evolved into a full-blown altcoin cycle. The Altcoin Season Index failed to break above the 75-threshold typically required to confirm broad, market-wide altcoin expansion. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This raises the key question &#8211; Is the market simply entering another short-lived rotation phase, or is this setup fundamentally different?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Falling USDT dominance as a key liquidity driver behind altcoin rotation<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ongoing altcoin rotation isn\u2019t happening in isolation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead, it is moving in tandem with USDT dominance, with the same down 2.7% over the week, breaking below the critical early-February support level of 7%. Declining USDT dominance typically signals liquidity flowing out of risk assets, which aligns with BTC.D hitting resistance as well. Together, these observations imply that investors have been expressing hesitation in allocating further into <a href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/predictions\/bitcoin-price-prediction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bitcoin<\/a> and may be gradually rotating capital elsewhere.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Notably, on-chain data further seemed to support this trend. At the time of writing, USDT flows had just recorded their largest exchange outflow in roughly three months, with -$1.29 billion in net USDT leaving exchanges on 08 May. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Typically, this is a bearish signal. However, when combined with a rising ETH\/BTC ratio, it means that capital may be increasingly rotating into altcoins rather than exiting risk assets entirely. <\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_596710\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-596710\" style=\"width: 680px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1-11.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-596710 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1-11.png\" alt=\"altcoins\" width=\"680\" height=\"382\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1-11.png 680w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1-11-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1-11-640x360.png 640w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1-11-320x180.png 320w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1-11-160x90.png 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-596710\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Santiment<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Naturally, this makes the decline in <a href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/predictions\/tether-price-prediction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">USDT<\/a> dominance a key distinguishing factor in the current cycle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If this trend holds, the rebound in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blockchaincenter.net\/altcoin-season-index\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Altcoin Season Index<\/a>, after retracing back to mid-July 2025 levels, could reflect potential exhaustion in altcoin selling pressure.
