Bitcoin\u2019s market share is stuck between 58% and 60%, which is a six-month trading range that one expert says will decide whether Ethereum and smaller altcoins enter a bullish season or suffer more losses.<\/p>\n
As such, the market observer urged keeping an eye on the level at which dominance could break, ushering in the next big move in the crypto market.<\/p>\n
Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D), which measures how much of the total cryptocurrency market cap BTC makes up, was stuck between 58% and 60% for the last 6 months. But according to analyst Ash Crypto, this consolidation has created<\/a> a technical setup where a break above 60% could send dominance up to 63% or 64%.<\/p>\n And if that happened, it would mean that institutions are only buying Bitcoin, causing altcoins to bleed further and pushing the value of the ETH\/BTC pair to new lows.<\/p>\n On the other hand, a break below 58% would mean that capital is leaving Bitcoin and going into Ethereum and other altcoins. The analysts said that this would confirm an ETH\/BTC breakout above the 0.0320 level, which would mark the start of a genuine altcoin season.<\/p>\n The ETH\/BTC pair itself is printing what Ash Crypto described as a bear trap, something it has done twice before.<\/p>\n At the time of writing, ETH\/BTC was trading close to 0.0314, just below the critical threshold Ash Crypto had identified.<\/p>\n BTC itself has been mostly flat over the past 24 hours, staying just above $74,000 after hitting<\/a> a six-week high of about $76,000 on Coinbase on Tuesday. However, there\u2019s much more action over longer periods, with the asset up more than 6% in the last seven days and about 8% across 30 days.<\/p>\n Ethereum has had a pretty good performance in the last few weeks, going up about 14% in the last seven days and about 18% in both the last 14 and 30 days. At the time of writing, it was trading above the $2,300 level, up 22% from the same time last year, compared to BTC\u2019s nearly 11% drop in the same period.<\/p>\n At the same time, ETH\u2019s SuperTrend indicator changed<\/a> from \u201cSell\u201d to \u201cBuy\u201d for the first time since September 2025. Recall, the last two times that signal showed up, the cryptocurrency rose by 52% and 174%, respectively, prompting analyst Ali Martinez to identify $2,400 and $2,600 as the next levels to watch.<\/p>\n The post Analyst Warns BTC Dominance Break Will Dictate Whether Alts Explode or Collapse<\/a> appeared first on CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bitcoin\u2019s market share is stuck between 58% and 60%, which is a six-month trading range that one expert says will decide whether Ethereum and smaller altcoins enter a bullish season or suffer more losses.
