Crypto market seasons

Who is really leading?

A mixed market

Smaller coins lead over 30 days, but the number of coins joining and ETH versus Bitcoin do not give one clean answer.

Four groups. One finish line.

Every coin counts equally inside its group. We also show the middle result so one very large winner cannot quietly write the whole story.

Does the leader survive one simple test?

A real group move should still look respectable after its best coin is removed.

30-day leaderSmaller coins

With every coin counting equally, the group returned +35.0%.

Remove ARB+27.8%

This is what the same group returned without its best performer.

The path matters, not only the finish.

All four groups start at 100. This makes their 30-day paths directly comparable.

What confirms the reading?

Price leadership alone does not prove money moved into a whole group. The number of coins joining and the direct ETH-to-Bitcoin comparison provide a tougher check.

Who joined in · 30 days

34 of 95 tracked large alternatives beat Bitcoin. A wider count is harder for one coin to distort.

Who joined in · 90 days

6 of 18 beat Bitcoin. This is the slower check behind today’s label.

What changes the answer?

Watch whether more alternatives beat Bitcoin, whether ETH keeps gaining against it, and whether the leading group remains strong without its best coin.
