Bitcoin Dominance Signals Bottom Is In, Are Altcoins Doomed?<\/h2>\n

It is difficult to imagine, given just how strong altcoins have been performing in 2020<\/a>. On the heels of the DeFi explosion, nearly all altcoins are up significantly year-to-date. The recent rally has brought the total crypto market cap back to pre-bear market levels<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But just like that bubble, after altcoins surged against Bitcoin, BTC dominance bottomed, things reversed, and alts plummeted. And just like 2019, Bitcoin rising higher also has the side effect of crushing alts.<\/p>\n

BTC dominance, however, may imply that regardless of if Bitcoin moves up or down, things could soon get back for altcoins. Here are five prominent, high timeframe signals that suggest alt season is about to end, possibly for good.<\/p>\n

From Hero To Zero: Five Ominous Signals That Alt Season Has Ended<\/h2>\n

Markets are cyclical, and as Bitcoin has shown, crypto is no different. And because Bitcoin recovered in the past and went on to new highs<\/a>, investors are watching altcoins to do the same thing.<\/p>\n

But what if there’s no need for altcoins at all, and as several top industry analysts claim, they will all eventually go to zero<\/a>? Zero is improbable, however, if BTC dominance has bottomed at 60%, then alts are in for a rough time.<\/p>\n
