Crypto Market Eyes New ATH—Bitcoin Dominance Drops as Altcoins Rally
Crypto market capitalization hit $3.80 trillion on Monday, a record.
Bitcoin fell below 63% while Ethereum rose beyond 11%.
Veteran analyst Peter Brandt predicts a cup-and-handle altseason.
On Monday, the cryptocurrency market value reached a record $3.80 trillion, up 15% in July. Bitcoin's (BTC) rise to a new all-time high at $123,218 sparked a market rebound under US regulatory pressure and political deadlock.
As Ethereum (ETH) gains market share, Bitcoin's market share declines, showing investors' risk appetite. Veteran analyst Peter Brandt sees a cup-and-handle pattern in overall crypto market value, excluding Bitcoin, that might foreshadow the next altcoin season.
Ethereum and other altcoins challenge Bitcoin's supremacy.
Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) is the proportion of cryptocurrency market capitalization that is Bitcoin. Altcoin capital movement from Bitcoin to altcoins caused a huge decrease in BTC.D between 2018 and 2022.
BTC.D leads at 62.89%, down from 66% on June 27. BTC.D may fall below the 50-week Exponential Moving Average (EMA) around 60.90% with a weekly closure below 63.15% support on May 11.
As mood strengthened, market capitalization touched a record $3.80 trillion on Monday. Risk-on market attitude is indicated by the CMC Fear and Greed Index, which is 70.
Additionally, the CMC Altcoin Season Index is 38, up from 23 on July 1, showing a capital movement from Bitcoin to altcoins. Altcoin seasons are marked by values over 75.
Capital rotation pumps have raised the whole crypto market capitalization, excluding Bitcoin (whole 2), by almost 8% this week to $1.41 trillion. The TOTAL 2 weekly chart shows a cup-and-handle pattern increasing, says Peter Brandt.
The expert points to the neckline around $1.70 trillion, near to the 2021 altcoin season high of $1.71 trillion. A weekly closing above this level might start an altseason cycle.
Altcoin market capitalization might reach $2 trillion, pushing the overall market worth beyond $4 trillion.

❓Why the Yuppie Elite Still Dismiss Bitcoin
Despite high IQs and elite educations, many MBA grads and professionals still scoff at Bitcoin. This piece breaks down why.
✨ It starts with trust in the system
The most successful yuppies believe in the system they mastered—elite schools, jobs, promotions. Trusting that system makes it hard to accept Bitcoin’s core thesis: the system is broken.
🪙Bitcoin requires a worldview shift
Bitcoin maximalism demands a deep understanding of monetary policy, scarcity, and distrust in central banks. Most elite professionals never learned this—intentionally or not—and don’t have time to reeducate themselves.
📉Their heuristics reject it
Yuppies are trained to filter out scams quickly. Bitcoin’s early aesthetics and community trip every alarm—so they dismiss it without deeper research.
🗣️Social validation drives belief
In the yuppie world, ideas are trusted when other smart yuppies believe them. Bitcoin lacks that internal social signal, so it’s automatically “not worth your time.”
🔒Don’t trust, verify – to a fault
Ironically, their rationality keeps them out. They won’t buy until they fully understand—and they don’t trust anyone enough to bridge the gap.
❓ Why this matters
These are the people most insulated from Bitcoin’s upside—until it becomes too big to ignore. When they do join, it may be because their old system starts to fail.
Eventually, price will force belief. But it won’t be because of understanding.

SOL Token Surges 5.53% as Staking Innovations and U.S. ETF Launch Drive $9B Trading Volume
Solana (SOL) experienced a 5.53% price increase over the past 24 hours, rising from 167.33 to 176.59 USDT on Binance. This upward movement is primarily attributed to several positive developments: Binance's launch of Soft Staking for SOL, enabling users to earn rewards with daily distribution and no lock-up period; the debut of new institutional-grade staking products, including the Liquid Staked SOL (LsSOL) token backed by major industry players; and the launch of the first Solana staking ETF in the U.S., which saw strong initial trading volumes. These events have contributed to heightened investor interest and optimism, further supported by technical indicators such as the completion of an inverse head-and-shoulders pattern and increased speculation around potential U.S. approval of a spot Solana ETF.
Currently, SOLUSDT is trading at 176.59 with a 24-hour trading volume exceeding $9 billion, a market cap of approximately $93.38 billion, and a circulating supply of about 537.8 million SOL, reflecting robust trading activity and positive sentiment in the market.

Every major #bitcoin cycle follows the same rhythm:
Pre-Bull ➡️Consolidation ➡️ Expansion
Looking at the monthly chart:
2011, 2015, 2019, 2023 ,all marked Pre-Bull accumulation
Followed by sideways chop and then massive expansions
Right now, $BTC is breaking out of consolidation…
Just like it did before every prior parabolic leg.
If history rhymes, we may have just entered the EXPANSION phase 🟢
Zoom out. Focus up. The next chapter could be wild.

CRV Price Analysis:
On the daily chart, the CRV token has broken out of a descending triangle pattern. The breakout has occurred with strong momentum, as shown by the price leaping from $0.773 to a recent high of $0.9872.
Successively, Bollinger Bands show a strong expansion, confirming increased volatility and directional strength. That being said, RSI stands at an overbought zone of 84.99. Moving forward, the next resistance levels lie at $1.10 and $1.30, which align with historical supply zones. Meanwhile, a stop-loss at $0.89 can help manage risk in case of a freefall.$CRV
