1 Dec, Monday opened with one of the weirdest blood baths of the year.
No FUD No Trump tweet No stock market bleed No bad macro No insider leaks Nothing at all
Yet $BTC free-falled from 90k straight to 83k, wiped billions in minutes, liquidated half of CT… and is now already clawing its way back like nothing happened.
But the real story today isn’t Bitcoin.
Look at the bubble map.
Retail is rotating. Alts are waking up. Green bubbles everywhere.

This is not panic.
This is rotation.
This is retail quietly positioning for what comes next.
Are we about to enter 2026 with an early Alt Season run while memecoins take the back seat for a bit?
Or is this just the calm before the next volatility nuke?
Either way… something big is shifting under the surface.
Altseason begins at the bottom, not the top.
