$BTC rules, altcoins are sinking: what's happening in the market

1️⃣ Bitcoin: "Solo-King" mode

BTC dominates the market: its share has risen to 64.4% — a maximum in 4 years!

Altcoins? Still in a "liquid desert".

Reason: no new growth drivers and real influx of users.

2️⃣ Alts: no hype, no pump

Funds are tired of projects without utility: even meme coins look brighter than "serious" tokens.

Startups? VCs have largely moved to AI — 57% of all investments in 2025 went to AI, not crypto.

For crypto startups, only $4.8 billion in a quarter, and almost half from one investor.

3️⃣ Altcoins: worst start to the year since 2020

The altcoin market (excluding BTC and ETH) has fallen by -22% YTD.

There are almost no new token launches. Major funds are putting things on hold.

4️⃣ What's next?

As long as BTC does not show a peak and start a multi-week consolidation — alts will be outsiders.

We are following the scenario of 2019–2020: first Bitcoin, then — maybe — a second wind for alts.
