• Cap exposure to 10 % portfolio spread across < 10 picks. • Favor tokens with revenue share, real usage, or exchange listings in pipeline. • Scale out on every 2‑3×.
• Tighten stops; raise cash to 50 %+. • Rotate back to BTC then to stables. • Refuse to chase new mints—protect the bag.
Tools & Alerts to Automate the Plan
ETH/BTC Ratio – add an alert at 0.06 (phase‑transition) and 0.075 (euphoria).Altcoin Season Index – > 75 = go heavy large caps; < 25 = stay with BTC.DefiLlama TVL Heat‑Map – shows where real liquidity is moving.Google Trends “buy crypto” – a free sentiment spike detector.TradingView Trailing‑Stop Script – auto‑clips 20–30 % pull‑backs in mania phase.
Risk Rules That Keep You Alive
Keep a non‑negotiable core BTC stack (25–40 %)—never rotate it.Use position sizing, not conviction, to manage unknowns: 1–2 % per micro‑cap.Pre‑plan exits: every time a coin 3×’s, withdraw your original stake.Respect cycle compression—what took 18 months in 2017 now fits inside 6–9 weeks.
Master these rotations and you’re no longer guessing “When alt‑season?”—you’re synchronised to it. Stay nimble, stay systematic, and let the money flow pay you instead of surprising you.
2. The Alt‑Season Trigger – BTC Dominance Cracks
Key prints
Weekly BTC.D close < 63 % 🔻Two‑Week momentum rolls bearish for first time since Q1‑21.
Capture relative‑strength pop historically worth 2–3× BTC returns.
Retain core BTC hedge (40 %)
If dominance snap‑backs, you’re still long king coin.
Tactical long‑only basket in mid‑caps
Weight by on‑chain revenue growth (see §5).
Dominance stays sub‑63 % → stay aggressive. Weekly close back above 64 % → cut alt exposure by half.

Derivative kicker
30‑day SOL IV remains < 90 %. Sell 0.20‑ΔPuts (150 / 155) to finance 0.30‑ΔCalls (250 / 275). Structure nets flat premium, limited downside, unlimited upside through summer.
5. BONK – The “Revenue‑Burn” Meta in Action
Why it matters Unlike most meme tokens, BONK has a hard‑coded cash engine: every SOL paid to the launch‑pad (BonkBot + BONKpad) is funnelled into market‑buys and irreversible token burns. You are effectively long a shrinking float.

PS Bluefin, Jito GMX and pumfun also can be put in the same bucket of protol buybacks.
