The Superiority of Bitcoin: A Three-Year High in Dominance while the $BTC Value Falls and Altcoins Fail


The market valuation for all cryptocurrencies was 56.3% on April 12, with Bitcoin's share reaching a three-year high.

The value of altcoins has plummeted, with many of the twenty most valuable cryptocurrencies seeing a loss of more than fifteen percent.

Bitcoin's Dominance in the Market

The market capitalization of Bitcoin has reached an all-time high, not seen in three years. On April 12, when Bitcoin made up 56.3% of the overall cryptocurrency market value, this rise was seen.

Altcoins took a major hit as Bitcoin's dominance increased. Numerous cryptocurrencies in the top twenty by market cap fell by more than 15%, according to the data.

Alternate Coin Effects
Altcoin values fell sharply at the same time as Bitcoin's dominance surged. A crypto market that has been the most "Bitcoin-heavy" since April 2021 is the direct outcome of this.

Even with new cryptocurrencies popping up every day, prominent trader and social media analyst Bagsy pointed out Bitcoin's remarkable surge to supremacy.

Another trader, Daan Crypto Trades, pointed out how Bitcoin and altcoins differed in the current downturn. According to him, the altcoin industry took a huge blow, losing billions of dollars worth of interest, while Bitcoin took a little impact.

Looking Ahead

A dominant breakthrough has often occurred in the early phases of Bitcoin bull markets. Once Bitcoin enters a protracted consolidation period, altcoins often catch up.

Altcoins may have done well in 2024, but they haven't experienced anything like it in a while. Trader Mikybull Crypto, however, sees a shift coming. In his view, the current market correction is the last shake-off before the dominance of altcoins bursts higher and Bitcoin's dominance declines.

At the end of 2020, Bitcoin's price action has just broken free from its previous macro trading range below $20,000, and his projection is supported by a chart comparing Bitcoin and altcoin domination.
