Bitcoin being the pioneer cryptocurrency has always had a big gulf between it and other cryptocurrencies in the market mostly in term of valuation. Although this is expected, the growing dominance BTC is having on the entire crypto market does not speak good for the crypto space...
As at the time of this publication, btc dominance in the crypto market account for 68.4 percent, with this being the highest since April 2017. The question is what does this growth in dominance imply?those it suggest an immiment pump? since the bull run started not long after such high dominance was recorded or those it imply further dump for altcoins and increase it btc valuation...
Please share your opinions.

When bitcoin dominance altcoin price will go down, most than last three months bitcoin always dominance in exchange market with 70% and do not give place for altcoin to raise higher price, less dominance with altcoin because many investor look invested with bitcoin than invested money with altcoin, less price by altcoin make many investor just interested with bitcoin investment only.

Nope, bitcoin dominance increase or decrease not growing, dominance does nothing to represent bitcoin liquidity, it just a metric of bitcoin market capitalization to show how popular investing in bitcoin compared to other altcoins in the crypto market. Just for reference to provide an easy and quick overview of bitcoin.

The impact of bitcoin growing dominance on the crypto can make the altcoin market go down and bloodbath, which will later
increase shitcoins and dead coins.Then it can cause a bull run. What makes a lot of people disappointed with bitcoin being more
dominant is that people can only invest in it bitcoin, then with assets in altcoin the price will be destroyed, and can't do daily trading.
But in my opinion don't be too dominant bitcoin will be no trading activity for altcoins. Because the price will be destroyed.

Btc dominance has overshadowed all other alts without a doubt, and from the look of things it seems this will continue for sometime, it seems as if the demand for btc keeps increasing as new investors put in money in the market, people trust their investment on btc than other alts hence the continue dominance.

Honestly, I do not like the tough price dominance of bitcoin in the cryptocurrency market. Of course, there are many useless altcoins on the market, but I would prefer that each of them develop without such dominance. Now, even the best altcoin projects have been in a price decline for almost two years due to bitcoin. Because of this, many began to lose their general interest in cryptocurrency. I think that the price dominance of bitcoin will not last long anyway. The cryptocurrency market will find a way to harmonize the relations of its participants.

The major impact you can see with the rise of bitcoin dominance in market is the expected price drop of altcoins.Whenever bitcoins dominance rise altcoins go on a bloodbath and vice versa happen when bitcoins dominance go low

I agree with you. But on another be and not can. Altcoins occupy a niche and everyone who invests in them should understand the risks he is taking

When prices for Altcoins fell on average 20 times, then the risks of investing in these coins fell several times. I think that you can invest in Altcoins at the current price.

I was reading a news article where it was mentioned that actual BTC dominance is quite above the one we see on coinmarketcap. It is somewhere near 90%. This shows that no other altcoin stand a chance against bitcoin even in near future. For currency to be successful, it needs high liquidity in the market. This not only helps in facilitating easy trade and transactions but ensure more security too.

Mostly all altcoins must be the benchmark price of bitcoin. obviously bitcoin will greatly affect the entire crypto market and other coins. and the dominance of bitcoin is certain because of these factors. but often everything has its time. when bitcoin starts at stable prices. altcoin often becomes the dominant in the market. along with bitcoin itself. it always like that.

The higher the dominance of BTC the more the chance for it to have the power to control crypto space in terms of having all the investors prefer it more than other cryptocurrencies. On the other hand, the more the dominance of BTC rise, the lesser the chance of altcoin to pump most especially if BTC's market cap has 68% dominance in the crypto space.
Another thing is, whenever the BTC has a bullish run, altcoin's price might follow but can't outgrow the price of bitcoin. BTC's dominance also has made investors have the perception of preferring BTC over other cryptocurrencies. It will be hard for other cryptocurrencies like altcoin and ETh to outgrow BTC because the latter has been known for a long time in crypto space and even had the dominance up to 100% before the birth of othe cryptocurrencies.

Of course, this makes it very difficult for some coins to survive since the meaning of altcoins was to fight off bitcoin at its throne and try to surpass it

I disagree with that, altcoins is not in circulation to fight bitcoin or for one of it to try and be the number one cryptocurrency, alt-means alternative, and that's something used when the other closely related item or whatever is not available.
Altcoins are there for those who wouldn't be able to get bitcoins to purchase them, though rather than purchase altcoins, I'll rather buy bitcoins with the exact value of that money.

You've already stated the fact of bitcoin dominating the crypto space. It was its pioneer. Almost if not all price of coins are affected whenever bitcoin price increases or decreases and that's why the bitcoin market is the one that is always watched by the people since it pretty much dictates how some coins rise and fall. Of course, this makes it very difficult for some coins to survive since the meaning of altcoins was to fight off bitcoin at its throne and try to surpass it. Observing the current course of events from the past few years, none had been able to shake the foundation of btc at the market and I would really doubt there would be one in the near future.

It has a positive and negative impact on the market.

Negative effect
* it makes altcoins become undervalued and it causes more altcoins to be totally dead as investors are usually get attracted into Bitcoin alone.

Positive impact
*More investors and user keep coming as it helps to promote crypto
*increase in market demand and to move the market price of Bitcoin

Depends - having a big amount of bitcoin dominance in the market isn't bad, or good really. It means that the altcoins will 100 percent follow the movements of BTC, and they aren't really undervalued - just that they don't really have control over themselves due to the dominance.

I'd also prefer more BTC dominance in the market - I think the recent changes to the market are pretty good, and I think the biggest problem we need to get over right now would be BTC adoption - more countries need to get in here.

Firstly, not sure why you'd revive a 1-month dead thread to post a pretty useless statement, but I'll respond.

Bitcoin is not really dominating the whole crypto currency world because there are still coins which people choose and not just the bitcoin itself. I think its being top 1 in crypto didn't give any pressure on the other altcoins.

Bitcoin dominance is at an all-time low right now and saying it doesn't affect the price movements of other altcoins is just stupid. Look at the recent 2 market crashes, as well as the one last year where BTC dropped from 20k to 8k, and all the altcoins followed suit as well.

It is definitely dominating the entire market, and the price of BTC definitely makes the other coins follow suit.

Though few alts are affected by BTC dominance, few alts do not fall into it. I can name few coins like, ERD, COS, Matic are have stood still not loosing their values when the btc value went down. They are based on their projects and services which shows the values of coins are based on the service and project they do in the market. However, we have to wait and see that how long these coins are keeping themselves standard to what they are now.

That is what we'd likely to see them. If they'll have a good market plan and sustainable growth it surely we could see these coins keep in moving.

Actually, I'm not really familiar to those coins but it is good thing that they will be able to sustain and fight for the market crisis. I know there are some altcoins could make it.

Most of the people look to cryptocurrency as a type of investment and not as an asset, they only care about profiting from it on the short term and that is reflected by the dominance of the bitcoin over the market due to it high value and increasing rates so when people look at the price of bitcoin and other crypto they are immediately drawn to bitcoin because they can get more value from it , and that comes directly from bitcoin being the first crypto that people invested in and supported and altcoins flowing it after a while, this dominance is always going to be the case and won't change as long as bitcoin is still active the only way this could change if the support for other coins starts growing which is very hard to do because they don't offer a whole lot of difference to what bitcoin does better

Without the doubt, the dominance of bitcoin in virtual world is still bulking, on this situation some altcoins are being overshadowed or being downtrend and maybe uptrend, so we can conclude that bitcoin has a big impact to the economic growth of the blockchain or in the cryptomarket. Bitcoin than other altcoin is much trusted on a way of investing, since bitcoin is being known worldwide.
