Bitcoin Dominance Delays Expected Altcoin Season

- Bitcoin’s dominance maintains at ~60%, stalling altcoin season.
- Ethereum surged but failed to shift market dynamics.
- Altcoins remain rangebound, with no breakout momentum.
In June 2025, Bitcoin’s market dominance persisted at around 60%, delaying the anticipated altcoin season across the cryptocurrency landscape.
Despite Ethereum’s notable gains, the broader cryptocurrency market has not witnessed a substantial shift towards altcoins, keeping investors focused on major assets.
Bitcoin’s market share remains strong, with a reported 60% dominance in June. Ethereum experienced a 40% surge in May, yet this movement has not resulted in a market-wide altcoin rally. Key opinion leaders have not signaled any transition toward a new altcoin season. As noted in the AMINA Bank report, “Bitcoin’s market dominance sits at a commanding 60% and it’s backed by performance…”
Mainly focusing on Bitcoin, capital inflows reflect continued trust in large-cap assets. The absence of significant liquidity transitions or official exchange statements further underscores the current investor sentiment. Institutional reallocations remain minimal, keeping the spotlight on established cryptocurrencies.
Historically, altcoin seasons succeed a decline in Bitcoin dominance, driven by retail interest in lower-cap assets. Despite macroeconomic changes, such as cooling inflation, analysis from AMINA Bank suggests cautious capital flows persist, affecting transformative events in cryptocurrency sectors.
