We passed the 50% mark recently, and if we look at what happens today, almost all alts lose a lot and bitcoin just loses little in comparison.
Is it because when we have a bear market like now, people turn to bitcoin because it is more secure? I think the opposite happened with the bull market last december, people turned to fancy alts because they thought they could hit the next 10× or 100×.
It is not a complex process alts move faster than bitcoin, if both bitcoin and alts go up the growth of alts is faster than the growth of bitcoin, but when the market goes down and bitcoin goes down as well as alts, then alts go down faster than bitcoin as well, and when you add that recently many alts were nothing but trash then it is easy to explain what we are seeing.
