Analysts are predicting a significant altcoin season in 2026, potentially pushing the total altcoin market cap beyond $4 trillion. The TOTAL2 chart indicates an ascending channel reminiscent of the 2021 altcoin season, with technical signals suggesting a major reversal. Historical patterns show altcoin market peaks every four years, with February 2026 as the next target. Technical analysis highlights a massive falling wedge formation in the altcoin market, nearing a breakout point around the $1.2 trillion support level. This pattern, often signaling a bullish reversal, could lead to a full-scale altcoin rally. Additionally, the overall crypto market is in a bullish ascending channel, with the total market cap potentially reaching $4.8 trillion if the trend continues. Despite the Altcoin Season Index being low at 29, indicating Bitcoin's dominance, this could signal an impending altcoin rally. Historically, altcoin seasons follow Bitcoin's initial run, suggesting a catch-up rally in early 2026.
