Based on my observation altcoins season is not far from today, the continuous rising of the bitcoin price can trigger both new and old altcoins to follow btc trend and i believe that few months or starting next week or months altcoins season will begin so be prepared for it.
Yeah bitcoin price is rising continuously and hadn't collapsed like it used to happen after reaching ATH. It falls a bit but retraces its path upward as soon too. So it may trigger upward trend for other alts too once investors realizes this and large amount of funds come into alts market. So alt season is inevitable which hadn't happened properly since 2018 whereas BTC reached its ATH multiple time since then. One can expect this but no one can tell when will it happen precisely.
In the past, when Bitcoin reached a new ATH, there was bad news that made many people panic and many whales and other investors sold their assets at cheap prices. But seeing Bitcoin successfully reach a new ATH price of $73k makes investors and whales more confident to keep raising Bitcoin prices.
