“Maximum Pain for Bitcoin Dominance”: Traders Skeptical of Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin (BTC), the largest cryptocurrency, is set to hit a new all-time high this cycle. But even above $100,000 per BTC will be disappointing for many Bitcoiners, @hedge__x shared on his X on January 19th.
In contrast, Ethereum (ETH) has far more impressive upside potential compared to the orange coin. Among other catalysts, Ethereum (ETH) is set for possible ETF approval. This could be an amazing catalyst for the next ETH rally.
It should be noted that Ethereum (ETH) is getting closer to activating the EIP-4844 or Proto-Danksharding upgrade. It aims to change the game in L2s and make them more resource efficient.
Therefore, the analyst is positive about the potential of Total2, an indicator of the cumulative market capitalization of cryptocurrencies excluding Bitcoin (BTC).
The Bitcoin Dominance Indicator (BTC.D) will experience “maximum pain,” the trader concluded.
The legal status of Ether is crucial for ETH ETF approval
In January 2024, Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) is losing momentum. After recording a local high of over 55% on January 9th, it lost 7.5% (4.6 points) in less than 10 days.
The Ethereum ETF is one of the most anticipated events in the cryptocurrency segment in 2024. The community and experts are moderately optimistic about its possible approval.
However, litigation between the US Securities and Exchange Commission and crypto exchanges over illegal securities offerings could impact the ETH ETF approval timeline.
Along with other large-cap altcoins, Ether is one of the tokens that the SEC claims are unregistered securities.
