The Hidden Chart That Signals Altseason
“OTHERS” Dominance Is Near 2019 Levels — The Calm Before the Rotation
Everyone’s staring at Bitcoin.
Everyone’s staring at Ethereum.
Nobody’s watching the OTHERS chart, and that’s where the real story is unfolding.
Let me break this down for you.

“OTHERS” dominance represents the total market share of all cryptocurrencies outside the top 10.
That means every large cap, mid cap, and small cap combined, the heartbeat of the broader crypto ecosystem.
And right now, that dominance is sitting at 7.26%, hovering near levels we haven’t seen since 2019.
If you know your history, that should make your eyes light up.
Because in 2019, that exact zone marked the accumulation base before the greatest altseason of the last cycle.

What the “OTHERS” Chart Really Means
This isn’t just a random index.
The “OTHERS” dominance chart tells you where liquidity is going.
When OTHERS dominance falls, it means capital is consolidating into the majors (BTC, ETH, SOL, etc.).
When OTHERS dominance rises, it means rotation has begun.
We’re currently sitting at the inflection point where BTC has topped locally and ETH dominance is stabilizing.
Historically, that’s the moment where liquidity begins to rotate down the risk curve, straight into altcoins.
The Historical Context
Take a look at the chart again.
We’re at the same support level that held in 2019, around 4.6%–5%.
Every time we’ve reached this level in the past, the pattern has repeated:
2019–2020: Alt dominance bottomed out - launched +300% higher into 2021 altseason.
Mid-2022: Post-collapse fear - accumulation zone → short-term rotations through 2023.
Now (Q4 2025): The exact same setup is repeating.
It’s the kind of symmetry that makes seasoned traders stop and pay attention.
Because when OTHERS dominance bounces from these levels,
it’s like the engine of altseason finally turning over.
Why This Matters Now
We’re at the point in the cycle where the crowd has lost interest.
Retail is gone.
Influencers are silent.
Even the die-hard bag holders have stopped checking their wallets.
That’s when market makers build positions.
They accumulate fear.
They buy what everyone else abandoned.
And then they rotate liquidity when no one’s looking.
The average trader only reacts once the charts are glowing green.
The ones who anticipate, they’re already in while everyone’s asleep.
If OTHERS dominance holds this level and starts climbing,
that’s your confirmation: the rotation is live.
The Technical Setup
The technicals couldn’t be clearer:
Weekly Stoch RSI: Bottoming out, identical to 2019 lows.
1W 50 SMA (yellow line): Sitting overhead at 8.26%, ready to be retested.
Volume: Increasing slightly off the base, early accumulation footprint.
If this bounces cleanly and pushes toward 8.5%+,
it’ll mark the first higher high since the last breakdown in April 2025.
And that’s your first signal that the capital flow is shifting.
This is exactly how every previous altseason began.
Quiet, slow, ignored, until suddenly it’s not.
My Take
This is the calm before the chaos.
Every cycle, OTHERS dominance dips into despair before exploding into euphoria.
This time will be no different.
But you have to be positioned before it happens.
That means:
Keeping your conviction basket (ETH, SOL) steady, that’s your foundation.
Rotating part of your fluid basket into strong alts, AI, DePIN, RWA, and L2 plays.
Keeping USDT sidelined for flexible DCA, don’t go all in.
You don’t need to catch the exact bottom.
You just need to be in before the herd realizes the rotation has started.
Because once OTHERS dominance spikes,
the move happens fast
and it doesn’t give second chances.
The Lesson
The crowd waits for confirmation.
Winners prepare for conviction.
OTHERS dominance is the canary in the coal mine
and it’s chirping again.
This is the time to study, structure, and position.
When everyone else wakes up, it’ll already be too late.
You’ve seen this before.
You know how it ends.
Don’t miss the rotation this time.
The ones who’ll thrive in this next leg are the ones who know how to structure portfolios before the move begins.

The “OTHERS” chart doesn’t lie.
Altseason isn’t gone, it’s just dormant.
And when it wakes up, you’ll either be prepared…
or left watching from the sidelines.
