🔥 Why 1.618 on BTC = Altcoin Season Coming
The 1.618 Fib extension is a common target for wave 3 or wave 5 in Elliott Wave theory. Once BTC hits it:
Many traders start taking profit on BTC.
That capital usually flows into ETH and major alts, then mid/small caps.
BTC dominance often peaks or stalls after hitting 1.618, which historically signals:
ETH/BTC starts rising
Altcoins gain strength against BTC and USDT
Retail and sidelined liquidity get attracted by BTC gains, but then chase faster % returns in alts.
🧠 Example Playbook
BTC breaks out → Runs hard → Hits 1.618 (e.g., from last correction low to current high)
ETH/BTC bottoms → ETH/USDT starts to run
Majors like SOL, AVAX, MATIC, DOT follow
Mid/small caps explode last (aka “altseason” proper)

Note
this is a standard motive wave:Wave 5 often equals Wave 1 or extends beyond.
Potential Wave 5 targets (from Wave 4 low at 92,950):
Conservative: 92,950 + 12,100 = 105,050
Extended (1.618 × Wave 1): 92,950 + ~19,600 = 112,550
