BTC went up - alts went down, BTC went down - alts went down, this was the case before December, when cryptocurreny market pumped last time.
But according to coinmarketcap BTC dominance in crypto market is 34%, though it was more than 60-70% on September, doesn't it mean that people started paying more attention ta altcoins and so alts eventually becoming more "independent"?
I don't think it will happen this year or even next, but don't you think that some top altcoins may bypass bitcoin in the near future?
I totally agree with you as we can understand that bitcoin is the core of the cryptocurrency and has dominated this market from long time,Infect this market started with bitcoin only but one think everyone needs to understand that no one or nothing is invincible and everyone has its own time and after that time he needs to step down in decent language we can say Retirement.Bitcoin has to retire from this no.1 position and Another coin has to take that position.Right now it is only ETH who has shown this much promise and this would not be easy for ETH at all.But it is high time people accept this reality.
