Bitcoin (BTC) 
$103,039 is closely observed not just for its price, but its dominance over the market as well. According to analyst Rekt Capital, Bitcoin’s dominance might cross 65%, signaling a critical threshold. While the cryptocurrency market shapes itself around Bitcoin’s momentum, altcoins are struggling to capture a significant share of this surge. Whether the 71% band foreshadows the next wave or hints at a sharp pullback remains to be seen over time.
Bitcoin’s Path to 71% Market Dominance
Bitcoin’s dominance over the market has steadily risen over the past months. Currently, it holds 65.38% of the total cryptocurrency market value. This figure is quite remarkable, as investors flock to Bitcoin, perceived as a safe haven, leaving other cryptocurrencies temporarily sidelined. This surge directly influences market sentiment.
Close monitoring is required for the 71% level, as historical data identifies it as a significant resistance area. In previous cycles, blockages occurred at this point, followed by declines. If a similar pattern emerges, the anticipated altcoin season could be triggered. Conversely, a brief consolidation period for Bitcoin could ensue. The market always holds the potential for breathtaking turns.
Current Performance of Ethereum and Other Altcoins
Bitcoin climbing over the $97,000 level has overshadowed the momentum of altcoins. Ethereum (ETH) 
$2,484, the largest altcoin, sees its market dominance drop to 7.5%. This decline paints a stark contrast with its 22% dominance in 2022. Ethereum remains in Bitcoin’s shadow, pushing investors to seek alternative options.
Currently, the Altcoin Season Index stands at 33. For a full-blown altcoin rally, at least 50 out of 75 altcoins need to outperform Bitcoin. At this point, the index needs to approach the 50 level. Such a move could shift attention towards altcoins.
