Over the past months, Bitcoin has been rising in market dominance at a fast pace. Altcoins have been on a constant decline in price ever since the bear market began back in 2018. They've been the ones which suffered the most, while Bitcoin has obtained greater prominence within the crypto market.

Which is why, it wonder me wonder why Bitcoin's market dominance have been rising so fast? What could be the cause of this? Will altcoins die soon, as a result of Bitcoin dominating the whole market? Or will they still survive?

So far, Bitcoin has gained the attention of people within the mainstream world, especially since it's one of the most limited cryptocurrencies in supply with an outstanding development team. The Lightning Network is its most interesting feature yet, leaving many wondering if it will render altcoins obsolete. If this indeed happens, then Bitcoin would effectively centralize the whole crypto market. What are your thoughts about this? Huh
Bitcoin already hit its highest point of dominance for two years causing its counterpart to be down. Bitcoin's value and huge exposure in the market and mainstream drives it's dominance up making alternative coins be left behind. According to tradingview.com, as of September, bitcoin's dominance is still over 72% which strongly tests the supports and users of altcoins. We can't still say that altcoin might completely vanish, what's sure is it will be hard for altcoins to overthrow bitcoin.
