Altcoins are experiencing growth, hinting at a potential shift towards a full-scale altcoin season as September approaches. Coinbase predicts this shift due to market conditions and Federal Reserve easing, drawing retail capital into high-risk assets like altcoins. Bitcoin dominance has dropped, signaling a possible rotation into altcoins.

Clear catalysts are key to igniting a significant altseason.
