Yes, alt season remains dependent on Bitcoin cycles. Historically, altcoins rally when BTC dominance drops as capital rotates from Bitcoin into alts, often after BTC peaks or stabilizes. This pattern holds in 2025-2026 cycles, with alt seasons triggered by BTC's price action and investor sentiment shifting toward higher-risk assets. No major decoupling has occurred yet—BTC still drives overall market liquidity.
