The dominance of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and stablecoins is nearing a significant support level, which may signal a capital transition to altcoins.
Crypto Dominance Data
Dominance data indicates that Bitcoin, Ethereum, and stablecoin capital is at a critical level. As of now, BTC trades at $116,327, up 1.92%, while ETH trades at $3,832.45, with a 6.55% increase over 24 hours. Despite these gains, total dominance remains just above the 74% mark—a level that has historically served as temporary support.
Retest of Broken Trendline
The chart displays a multi-step sequence: dominance rises, breaks trendline support, bounces at 74%, then retests the broken trendline. This exact sequence was observed in 2021 before a significant capital shift into altcoins. Analyst CrypFlow notes that the crypto market is now at the final stage before a potential breakdown.
Technical Structure and Its Significance
The similarity to the 2021 cycle is pronounced. In that year, dominance peaked in January, broke trendline support, bounced, and retested. The failed retest in May 2021 was a trigger for a massive altcoin surge. Now, in 2025, dominance follows the same structural path. With the failed retest confirmed, only a full breakdown remains to complete the pattern.
Market watchers believe that a decline in dominance could lead to a new wave of high-growth altcoins, making capital allocation in this area particularly appealing for investors.
