Apart from the increase in BTC and ETH, the market has also seen a surge in altcoin volume dominance. The volume has hit the highest of 64%, which has not been noticed since 2021.

The altcoin volume dominance is an indicator that calculates the proportion of a specific coin’s trading volume to the overall volume on the cryptocurrency market.

However, as compared to altcoins, Bitcoin’s dominance has decreased. It means that people are losing interest in trading Bitcoin. In other words, people find trading in altcoins more lucrative than in Bitcoin, which can be concerning for Bitcoin leading to its fall.

According to CryptoQuant’s valuation metrics, BTC and ETH started the year within an undervalued territory. BTC’s dominance has been at its lowest point at 16%, which is the lowest point since 2021.
