Bitcoin dominance peaked above 5,500 in May and is now pulling back, suggesting a possible market rotation.
A decline in BTC dominance often signals rising interest in altcoins and potential capital inflows.
Altcoin BANANA shows low volume but could gain attention if BTC dominance continues to drop.
Bitcoin’s dominance in the crypto market has started to show early signs of a retreat following a sustained rise that peaked between April and May. BTCDOM/USDT recently went up to a high of 5,560.0 and then dropped back down to 5,269.7. Since we are seeing a possible reversal, it could provide altcoins with more chances to stand out in the upcoming weeks.
BTC Dominance Trends Point to Possible Correction
The 1-month chart reveals a sharp upward movement in Bitcoin’s dominance from early April through late May, where it climbed from approximately 879.7 to its peak above 5,500. Technical indicators such as the 10-day and 21-day exponential moving averages (EMAs) have been tracking closely beneath the price, supporting the trend. However, as the current price begins to retreat from recent highs, some market watchers interpret this as a possible top formation.

When Bitcoin cools down after a big surge, investors often turn their attention to altcoins. A reduction in the dominance index could lead to a wider recovery or even an altseason in the altcoin market if Bitcoin’s strength lessens in the near future.
Altcoins May See Increased Activity
The potential decline in Bitcoin dominance coincides with increased attention on smaller altcoins, such as BANANA, which currently trades at $21.65. Market data shows no 24-hour trading volume but reflects a total liquidity of $2.32K and a fully diluted valuation (FDV) of $4.59K, shared by 827 holders. Although trading activity remains low, the environment could shift if dominance continues to fall and investor sentiment pivots toward alternative digital assets.
Final Thoughts
With Bitcoin dominance suggesting exhaustion after a major uptrend, analysts are closely watching a possible shift in momentum. If current conditions persist, altcoins will begin to receive a larger percentage of capital inflows, making for greater volatility and higher trading activity in the altcoin universe over the next month.
