The altseason, one of the most anticipated events of the crypto bull market, may potentially remain on hold following recent insights by some prominent market analysts. Notably, the current crypto cycle has shown little progress toward a true altseason, with Bitcoin Dominance holding strong, signaling a continued preference among investors for the leading cryptocurrency over alternative digital assets.
Notably, this market insight suggests Bitcoin is likely to keep attracting a massive influx of investment suggesting an altseason may be a distant concept for the present market cycle. For context, the altseason defines a period in the bull cycle when altcoins outperform Bitcoin. It is generally indicated by a fall in Bitcoin Dominance indicating a shift in investors capital from the market leader to other cryptocurrencies.
At the time of writing, the total crypto market cap is valued at $3.24 trillion following a 0.08% gain in the past day. As the market leader, Bitcoin currently holds a market dominance of 64.9%. The remaining 35.1% is accounted for by the altcoin market which is presently valued at $1.11 trillion.
