Bitcoin Dominance
What Is Bitcoin Dominance?
Bitcoin's share of the total cryptocurrency market capitalization. Calculated as Bitcoin's market cap divided by the total crypto market cap.
How to Interpret
Rising dominance typically occurs during bear markets (flight to quality) and early bull markets. Declining dominance during bull markets signals 'altseason' as capital rotates to altcoins.
