- Bitcoin dominance breakdown may trigger capital flow into altcoins.
- Whale profit-taking hints at short-term pressure despite bullish structure.
Bitcoin dominance has entered a confirmed bearish structure, suggesting a market shift in favour of altcoins. A sharp drop below key support levels has reversed a long-standing uptrend. At the same time, a major whale has taken profits, raising short-term BTC volatility concerns. Meanwhile, Bitcoin continues trading above $119K, supported by strong investor interest.
Bitcoin Dominance Confirms Breakdown, Altcoins Poised to Gain
Bitcoin’s dominance fell sharply to 60.84%, breaking below a major ascending wedge. The move signals a bearish structural change that had been forming since late Q2. Critical support of nearly 62% failed to hold, validating a rising wedge breakdown.
Analyst Mikybull Crypto highlighted the pattern as a confirmation of a macrocycle peak in Bitcoin’s dominance. The chart shows a steep vertical sell-off after wedge completion, reinforcing downside risk.
With BTC dominance declining from over 66% in recent weeks, capital is rotating into altcoins. Analysts suggest this divergence could mark the beginning of a potential altseason extending into Q3 2025.
Whale Realises 109% ROI with Major BTC Deposit to Binance
Lookonchain data revealed a major whale moved 400 BTC (worth $47.1M) to Binance today. The investor had previously acquired 1,500 BTC between June 2023 and November 2024 at an average of $56,282. The latest move brings realised profits to $91.5 million, a 109% return on the total investment.
The whale still holds 1,100 BTC, currently valued at around $129 million, indicating long-term bullishness. However, today’s transfer marks the largest single profit-taking event in two years, potentially increasing near-term market pressure. Historical records show steady accumulation via Binance hot wallets, with today’s move signalling a strategic sell phase.
At press time, Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $119,438.99, gaining 0.97% in the past 24 hours. Price briefly dipped below $117K but rebounded quickly, showing resilience amid rising volume. A 41% surge in trading activity reflects renewed interest and buying momentum, helping BTC approach recent highs despite whale-driven outflows.
