A well-known crypto analyst has turned optimistic on altcoins following a sharp market downturn over the weekend.
The trader, known as Kaleo, shared that Bitcoin’s dominance in the market may have peaked, signaling a potential shift in momentum toward altcoins.
The Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) metric, which tracks BTC’s share of the total crypto market cap, is often used to gauge whether alternative cryptocurrencies are gaining strength.
According to Kaleo, Bitcoin’s recent dominance surge could be nearing its end, setting the stage for altcoins to regain traction.
He noted that BTC.D spiked during the latest market dip but suggested that altcoins may soon begin outperforming once again.
Currently, BTC.D stands at 61.33%, down from a weekend peak of 64.09%.
Kaleo also pointed to several altcoins, including memecoin PEPE, as potentially having reached their market lows, hinting that they could be primed for significant rebounds.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a massive influx of over $1 billion in a single day on Thursday, fueled by Bitcoin’s surge to a new all-time high above $118,000.
Bitcoin’s breakout to a new all-time high above $118,000 has reignited momentum across the crypto market. While BTC itself saw nice gains several altcoins are riding the wave of renewed investor interest.
As Bitcoin breaks above $118,000, fresh macro and on-chain data suggest the rally may still be in its early innings.
Bitcoin’s surge to new all-time highs is playing out differently than previous rallies, according to a July 11 report by crypto research and investment firm Matrixport.
