## The true altcoin season is still active: what investors don't see

The cryptocurrency market continues to generate opportunities with winning altcoins, even though many traders believe this cycle has already passed. An analysis by prominent industry figures reveals that the narrative about the "end of the altcoin season" is more a reflection of outdated expectations than a market reality.

### New stories, new assets, same pattern of gains

What has really changed is not the absence of movement in altcoins, but the **raffle of the previous cycle's template**. Investors who expected to see the same assets and narratives from the past repeat themselves missed the new protagonists that are already showing significant returns.

Cases like Hyperliquid HYPE clearly demonstrate this trend: the token evolved from quotes of just a few dollars to reach several tens of dollars. At the same time, Solana has shown strength by approaching its all-time highs, indicating that institutional and retail capital continues to flow into trending assets.

### The traders' mistake: clinging to the old playbook

Recent conversations on industry podcasts highlight a critical point: traders are looking in the wrong place. Instead of analyzing historical patterns, the focus should be on identifying where real capital is concentrated today and which narratives are capturing the current market's attention.

The message is clear: **abandoning the strategy template of the past** is not optional, it is imperative. Those who manage to adapt to the new dynamics will be positioned to capture the best opportunities already in motion.
