Traders are watching July closely for signs of an altseason, according to Ash Crypto's latest post. The call comes as Bitcoin trades near $65,000 and Ethereum is around $1,765.
The early-July window matters because crypto markets often move in compressed bursts. After a period of range-bound Bitcoin trading, traders start looking for signs that risk appetite is returning beyond BTC itself. Those signs usually include ETH/BTC strength, falling Bitcoin dominance and broader participation from mid-cap and small-cap tokens.
To confirm an altseason, Ethereum needs to outperform Bitcoin on a sustained basis, while also showing breadth in the market with gains spread across multiple large-cap names.
