Bitcoin Dominance on the Rise

At the start of October, Bitcoin’s market dominance was 57.39%. By October 2, it had climbed to 58.02%, hitting a peak of 58.21% on October 3. However, the upward trend slowed by October 4, with dominance fluctuating between 58.13% and 57.68%—the lowest point reached on October 10. Today, Bitcoin’s dominance stands at 58.10%.

On October 11 and 14, Bitcoin dominance saw notable jumps. Just yesterday, it rose from 57.93% to 58.11%, marking a 0.71% increase in market share so far this month.

Altcoins Struggle to Keep Up

Bitcoin Price Analysis
