The altcoin cycle could really heat up in 2026. After Bitcoin dominance peaks, we typically see capital flowing into alternative tokens. Historically, this pattern repeats—macro conditions ease, risk appetite returns, and the market rotates toward smaller caps. If market sentiment shifts favorably next year, we might see a genuine alt season unfold. Who's positioning for it?

2026 is a bit far off. In the crypto world, one day is like a year. Who can guarantee they'll still be around by then?

2026? Buddy, you're a bit late to place this bet. You should have gotten on board earlier.

We still have to wait until 2026. For now, start laying the groundwork for copycats. I bet the crypto world will really shift next year.

2026? Bro, you're too optimistic. I think we should start laying low right now.

It's still early 2026. Everything accumulated now will have to go through a hell cycle.

Waiting for 2026? I'm already starting to target some low-position chips now, anyway it's idle money.
