The situation with Bitcoin in July 2025
• Bitcoin at the beginning of July 2025 is trading at historical highs — around $109,000, almost double the level from a year ago.
• Over the past year, growth has been nearly 88%, and over the last two years — more than 260%.
• In June-July, Bitcoin demonstrated stability and growth despite short-term corrections, maintaining its confident leadership in the market.
Reasons for Bitcoin's growth
• Institutional investments: The inflow of funds into spot Bitcoin ETFs continues, supporting demand and liquidity.
• Macroeconomic uncertainty: Against the backdrop of geopolitical risks and volatility, investors prefer Bitcoin as the most liquid and 'safe' crypto asset.
• Regulatory news: Positive changes in regulation (e.g., the advancement of the GENIUS bill in the USA, legalization of cryptocurrencies in Vietnam) strengthen Bitcoin's position as 'digital gold'.
• Expectations for new institutional products: Filings for new ETFs and the integration of BTC into traditional finance maintain interest.
Why altcoins are lagging
• Bitcoin dominance has risen to 65% — the highest level since early 2021. Investors prefer Bitcoin in uncertain conditions due to its liquidity and lower risks.
• Altcoins showed weak dynamics in June-July: Most top coins (ETH, SOL, BNB) either declined or grew slower than Bitcoin. For example, ETH and SOL fell by 1-2%, while ADA and DOGE dropped by 12-16%.
• Reasons for the lag of altcoins:
• Institutional investors are focusing on Bitcoin.
• Intensifying regulatory risks for individual projects (e.g., delay of the ETF for ADA, issues with the Solana network).
• Weak demand and profit-taking after the explosive growth in 2024.
• Expectation of an 'altseason': Historically, altcoins begin to rise after the Bitcoin dominance phase, but this has not yet occurred.
Expectations and Forecasts
• Experts believe that an 'altseason' is possible in the second half of 2025, when Bitcoin stabilizes above $112,000 and investors begin to seek new opportunities in other crypto assets.
• In the short term, Bitcoin maintains its leadership and is perceived as the main 'safe haven' in the cryptocurrency market.
In short: Bitcoin is currently at historical highs due to institutional demand and macroeconomic uncertainty, while altcoins are temporarily lagging due to high Bitcoin dominance, regulatory risks, and investor caution.
