Want to Find Altcoin Winners After the Market Crash? Here’s Your Guide!

by

Oh, the good old days when Bitcoin‘s rally meant everyone’s altcoins were going to the moon. Well, those days are gone, and the crypto world is now a little less generous. Who knew “altcoin season” could go from free-for-all to VIP access only? 🙄

Experts say the “everything’s going to pump” era is over. Hitesh Malviya, the founder of DYOR (basically a super-sleuth for crypto), told BeInCrypto that if you want to win big, you better start paying attention to the new trends, or you’ll get left behind. Sorry, no shortcuts! 😏

So, How Do You Find Winning Altcoins in This Wacky Market?

Back in the day, altcoin season was all about Bitcoin doing the cha-cha, while altcoins had their moment in the spotlight. But now? It’s a lot less of a party, and more of a “selective VIP event” for the cool kids.

“If you’re waiting for the next altcoin season like the ones in the past, good luck with that,” says Malviya. “What we saw was just a bubble—two bull cycles and two bear cycles ago.”

Basically, you can’t just throw money at anything with a cute logo. The new altcoin season is all about the *quality* projects—stuff that actually works, has users, and doesn’t need a meme coin to pump its numbers. 💡

Investors should care about the basics: usage, revenue, and a community that isn’t just there for the memes. Because let’s be real, meme coins are so last season. 🙃

“This market is evolving. It’s going to be more stable, less like a roller coaster. The new class of crypto will be made up of tokenized equities (like AAVE) and the usual suspects—Bitcoin and Ethereum,” Malviya explains. Sounds like the crypto version of ‘grown-up time,’ right?

Liquidity now follows narratives, kind of like your friend who hops on every new diet trend. One week it’s AI tokens, next it’s DeFi projects, and who knows, maybe the metaverse will be cool again next month. 💁‍♂️

Want in on the action? Be sure to follow social media, keep an eye on developer activity, and, most importantly, read the news before it’s already too late. 💻

“Liquidity will flow like a bad reality TV storyline: always shifting between crypto categories. Think stocks, but with more coins and less boring.” – Malviya (probably).

So, How Do You Find Your Next Altcoin Superstar?

Malviya says, if you want to spot the next winner, look for altcoins that are holding up during downturns. If they’re still standing strong when Bitcoin is throwing a tantrum, that’s a sign of solid demand. It’s like the crypto version of holding your ground in a mosh pit. 🤘

“At DYOR, we have a cool tool called Optimised Relative Strength. It helps track coins that have shown strength over the last 7, 30, or 90 days. If a coin outperforms during a dip, it’s probably going to make a move when the market picks up,” Malviya said. Oh, so you want to be that person who’s *ahead of the curve*? Well, this is your shot.

Besides that, pay attention to key metrics. Not just the “buzz,” but the numbers that actually matter:

  • DEX Volume: More trading on decentralized exchanges = potential for higher prices. Basic math, really.
  • Total Value Locked (TVL): People trusting a platform = price boost. It’s all about trust, darling.
  • Derivatives Volume: More traders = more fees = more crypto goodness.
  • Oracle Total Value Secured (TVS): The more secure a platform is, the more people are going to rely on it.
  • DePIN Revenue: Real-world service = real-world value. Less hype, more substance. 🍀

Malviya also thinks that tokenomics is make-or-break for a project. In short: if the crypto project has messed-up tokenomics (aka bad supply and distribution), you can probably kiss it goodbye. 🚪💨

“Ideally, 60% of the token supply should be in the hands of the community and ecosystem fund. That way, there’s actual demand, not just some random person holding 10% and controlling the market.” – Malviya (seriously, he knows his stuff).

And, of course, he has some tools for you to stalk your next big win:

  • DYOR – This is where you’ll find strength data on 200+ coins, demand-side tokenomics, and tons of research on top projects.
  • DeFiLlama – Multi-chain DeFi data at your fingertips. The DeFi world has never been easier to understand.
  • Dune Analytics – A custom platform where you can build your own on-chain data dashboards. Geeky, but in a cool way.

“DeFiLlama and Dune Analytics are basically your crypto cheat sheets. Learn them, and you might just be the smartest person in the room. You’ll thank me later.” – Malviya (well, not literally, but you get the idea).

Do the research. Find the next winner. It’s not about luck. It’s about being smarter than everyone else. 👑
