All people are waiting for the season of altcoins. And in the market it happened so that everything goes exactly the opposite of expectations. Altcoins are still a dead thunderstorm for a long term, except for the top 10.
The dead will surely rise back to life when altcoin season come and I am sure it will happen like the thief in the night which is why we need to continue preparing for it and holding on to it. All I am just waiting for now is to see the sign that bitcoin would consolidate and once bitcoin starts to consolidate, then it would be clear that altcoin season will start very soon.
i wouldn't be so sure about that. if that were true then we should have had at least 20,000 altcoins currently listed on coinmarketcap.com instead of 2,000! the rest of 18,000 altcoins did in fact die on previous pump and dump seasons (during the dump). and this past cycle is no different from other times either.
so far in 2018 and then in past months of 2019 we have seem the death of about 600 to 700 altcoins which has brought down the number of them on CMC down drastically and also the total market cap.
many of the big coins will also follow the same thing but the difference is that they won't die as fast. they will resist but won't ever be pumped the same way.
