Bitcoin Has 50% of Crypto Market

Bitcoin is dancing around its 26-month high of 52% of the total crypto market – breaking 50% this week with no signs of slowing down. Could it go higher?

• Bitcoin’s market dominance is steady at 50% of the total crypto market; normally ranging between 39% and 46% but exploding as high as 52% back in June 2022.

• Bitcoin would likely benefit the most from the latest regulatory changes announced by the New York Department of Financial Services on Monday

More still to come:

• The much-anticipated Blackrock spot ETF still hasn’t been fully realized; analysts believe market dominance may increase.

TLDR; With a green light from regulators and institutional adoption still in development, BTC’s long-term outlook is bright
