Here’s What the Market Needs to See an Altcoin Season
Bitcoin price drops typically spark both concern and joy, but recent cases have only involved the former.
Altcoins’ dependence on Bitcoin has compromised them, leading to the failure of Altcoin Season.
Where does Bitcoin fit in?
The price of Bitcoin has dropped dramatically 4% in the last 24 hours, falling to $54,300. The drop below $55,000 raises concerns among investors, as this level represents the last significant support before a potential drop to $50,900.
This $50,900 target matches the double top pattern seen in March and July, indicating a possible further 8% decline.

Despite this, there is still hope for a rebound. If Bitcoin can recover and re-establish $55,000 as a support level, it could pave the way for the price to rally back to $58,800.
However, the drawdown has had an impact on BTC’s market dominance, albeit a very slight one. At the moment, BTC represents 54.64% of the entire cryptocurrency market cap. Despite the drawdown, 54.64% is still bearish for altcoins.
