Alt Season Causes Top Crypto To Outperform Bitcoin By More Than Double The ROI<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin is up over 60% year to date<\/a>. Meanwhile, its next closest competitor and top altcoin Ethereum is up well over 200% during the same time period. When other cryptocurrencies outperform Bitcoin for an extended timeframe, its referred to as an altcoin season.<\/p>\n

But after an extra year of drawdown, these same battered and beaten assets are recovering much faster in 2020 than the first-ever cryptocurrency has. After topping out in early 2019, Bitcoin’s dominance caused an altcoin apocalypse<\/a>, prompting widespread capitulation in the asset class.<\/p>\n

Alts made a strong recovery in early 2020, but fear surrounding the pandemic caused the assets to double-bottom this March. Since then, most altcoins are up a hundred percent or more. Some, have grown several hundred percent since the start of the year, such as Chainlink, Band, and numerous DeFi tokens<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But according to an ascending trendline<\/a> and recent rejection, powerful resistance may bring a return to the altcoin apocalypse before things finally improve.<\/p>\n
