Gate News message, April 20 — Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) has climbed to 59.9% on the weekly chart, approaching a historically significant resistance level, according to trader TATrader_Alan on April 19. The analyst noted that this zone has previously rejected BTC.D on three separate occasions, preventing further upward movement in dominance.
If BTC.D is rejected at the current resistance level, market participants expect capital to rotate from Bitcoin into altcoins, potentially triggering an altseason phase. Historical data shows that similar breakdowns in Bitcoin dominance have often preceded notable rallies across the altcoin sector, as liquidity flows into alternative assets with smaller market capitalizations and higher volatility.
