Bitcoin price has decline to about 94k today which cover about 4.5% decline rate and this dip has drastically result to a significant decline in the price of altcoins with a decline rate higher than that of Bitcoin. And this has made me wonder if the straight of altcoins rely on the straight of bitcoin because it seen that fall in Bitcoin price affect altcoins more than it's rise.
from my observation in some years now, it's obvious that the strength of bitcoin in the market determine the increase in all coins, without bitcoin altcoins will not exist and they will not stand firm in the like increment, so I know very well that bitcoin increment affects other coins and bitcoin decrement also affect other coins, and if bitcoin is out of market right now, its obvious that no altcoins that can survive within six months.
It's no longer news that Bitcoin is the sole determinant factor of the entire cryptocurrency market and whatever direction the Bitcoin market takes so will all other coins in the altcoins category take shape, and also note that the impact of the market is higher on altcoins much more than Bitcoin and that is why we all advocate for More Bitcoin holdings than altcoins, even though Bitcoin falls to around $94000 it won't take long to recover back to its previous all-time high price, the cryptocurrency market is a chain and Bitcoin is the major market propeller.
Some people argue the fact that altcoins can do without bitcoin, which is very clear that bitcoin gives rise to any other cryptocurrencies, and when altcoins decreases in the market it take altcoin more time to pick off increment whereas bitcoin doesn't take time to restate it's value...And people do value to invest in altcoins more bitcoin due to chances of making profit through altcoins is higher than bitcoin, but in summary bitcoin gives altcoins rise of increase.
