This isnt always true a lots of time you will see altcoins skyrocketing up each and everyday while btc moving up with its average pace. However yes sometimes it does happpens and The simple answer to your question is that Bitcoin has higher usage. People investing in Bitcoin are more than that investing in Altcoins. Altcoins are relatively newer than Bitcoin therefore Bitcoin has great faith of investors. People demanding Bitcoin are more so its price rises more than Altcoins. Moreover, bitcoin is the index of the whole market so if you think crypto market could go up without btc going up its impossible.

In the world of crypto money, subcons are easy to make cheap transactions. Commissions received are more appropriate. These are the reasons for being valuable.

I just wanted to discuss topic  about the price after crash . Before crash bitcoin dominance was 34 percent  but now 40 percent . I was thinking as long as bitcoin increase altcoins will rise up as well however it doesnt happened exactly ,when bitcoin falls altcoin falls down moreand more  but in opposite doesn't increase as much as bitcoin.
Its because people more love to keep bitcoin than altcoin because the price of bitcoin more stable than the others altcoin.and as we know bitcoin could using as a tool of payment in some country and many online shop. Thats why people feel more comfortable to keep bitcoin than altcoin. The fact is when bitcoin rise not many altcoin rise but when bitcoin dip down every altcoin follow the dip thats what happening.

you are asking two different question without knowing it.
one is about bitcoin price rise and another is about what people call dominance by mistake.

regarding price rise you should know that bitcoin rises more and it is a solid rise because it has real usage. it is the biggest coin which has actual "currency usage in real world" and altcoins lack this important factor. and thanks to that bitcoin's adoption increases so its price increases more and has no permanent drops while altcoins get pumped and when they are dumped it is usually a permanent price loss.

regarding what they call "dominance" you should know that it is simply a false factor called market cap. and total market cap was mainly bloated thanks to creation of hundreds of altcoins and tokens in the past couple of months and also huge pumps of all coins specially big ones like ripple and ethereum which bloated the total marketcap and decreases the share of bitcoin. these 2 caused the drop to 40% or whatever % you saw and now that they both are going away the % is rising back up again.
in any case it has nothing to do with "dominance".
This makes sense and I agree with you partially. I agree that bitcoin value continues to rise in the long run as I expected thanks to its popularity and real world usage and will continue to rise thanks to new features like lightning network integration etc, but there are other altcoins that are quite popular and are being used actively in the real world like Ethereum, Ripple etc which goes to show that not all altcoins fall when bitcoin rises in the long run. This is the reason I feel that the popular altcoins like Ethereum etc will continue to surge in value in the long run no matter what.

The old saying goes... When bitcoin rises, alts fall. When bitcoin falls, alts fall hard. So when do alts rise???

I think when bitcoin rises and finishes making its move into a stable price range, that's when the alts follow. Thus, bitcoin needs to find its next stable price range and sit there for a while before we see a surge in alts again.

The bitcoin increases much more than alt coins by volume  because bitcoin is the first crypt o currency and its market capital and the daily traded volume is considerably high.The bitcoins volume of transactions per day comparing to other alt coins are high
and its capital investment comparing to the alt coins are also considerably high.The features of bitcoin and the alt coin are more or less same.Bitcoin has developed its market confidence and more and more people are attracting to bitcoin such as traders and investors

One simple thing to note is that Bitcoin's rates are much higher than altcoins, so it's far more cost-effective than altcoins. Secondly, altcoins are highly dependent on Ethererum while Bitcoin rates are not dependent on any crypto, so the bitcoin rate increases, altcoins decrease, and vice versa. Altcoins rate is likely to drop if the Etherum rate decreases, while the Bitcoin rate will always increase because it has only a limit of 21 million coins if it is reduced, then it is only temporary.

I think the factor driving bitcoin to increase more than altcoin is the fact that it only have limited supply. The demmand is high but the supply is the same. So same volume of bitcoin circulates but more and more people are showing their interests and it gains more popularity.

As I see, Bitcoin is growing all the time. The price can be low or high, but finally it be profitable to hold it.
Other tokens may grow even faster than Bitcoin. But if its price falls down, altcoins struggle with it too.
... Yes that's true, bitcoin is growing faster than altcoin's value or the price, Because bitcoin is more stable and  popular than some altcoins. Based on market cap bitcoin is always at the top level and the next are altcoins. In my own opinion altcoins are always basing the capacity of bitcoin because bitcoin is the foundation of all crypto.

Yes Bitcoin dominance is slowly coming back, last time people trying to look for profit with alt, so they sell their Bitcoin and buy alt, and that had caused the alt coins price to soar high, theoretically when you sell BTC to buy alt coins, the BTC price will go down and alt coin will go up

it was because theres a lot of investors investing  for bitcoin. They invest a lots of money hoping to have it back doubled or triple or quadruple. Thats why the sudden rise of the value of bitcoin is much more faster than those other altcoins however if bitcoin goes down, most altcoins goes down to due to the fact that these altcoins were dependent to the bitcoin, because bitcoin is the leader of all altcoins and most exchanges needs bitcoin before rhey could become fiat or cryptocurrencies.

Its because bitcoin is much more stable compare to other coins and there are lots of bigtime investor in bitcoin than its competitors. When bitcoin rises up altcoin traders tend to leave or put altcoin on hiatus and focus only on bitcoin thus leaving a small percentage of traders trade altcoin.
You have a point that aside from its stability and a highest value,bitcoin was the greates of all time.This is the first crypto coin and a lot of people make rich because of what bitcoin can do to change our life.

Bitcoin is more dominant in the market,altcoins are mostly being paired to bitcoin that is why if the bitcoin will be moving that main logic with the people is to get out with the altcoins imemdiately so they can maximize bitcoin's price up ,or if the bitcoin is failing they will prevent big losses when they sold it and buy at the dips.

Not exactly like that when the bitcoin has started to move most of the investors are pulling out their money from the altcoins causing the altcoins to bleed,they are doing these to be safe when bitcoin has started to move because when bitcoin's price has move regardless up or downwards the altcoins will bleed,when the bitcoin has gone sideways the altcoins will grow.

Because Bitcoin is the king of all crypto, and it is the first coin. Many people know about bitcoin via online, tv, newspaper, media etc. And most media pundit mention bitcoin, whenever they talk about crypto, so people got familiar with it, so if they buy any coin it has to be bitcoin.

Because altcoin is just an alternative for bitcoin. Means it has less price than bitcoin. Btc is the first crypto tho.
Btc is the first crypto and it is the most invested by users because of the capabality to grow bigger its value. Once bitcoin rise altcoins follow it might up or down. The demand of bitcoin is bigger than altcoins as this is why prices for bitcoin is increase.

that's obvious. bitcoin is the first crypto that no one can manage it compared to the altcoin owned by the company or developer.
the main factor why bitcoin is the most viral and most important of all crypto, bitcoin is always owned by most investors. because bitcoin is a major tool in investment, trade and mining.

Its not rising its just settling down. It will take some time for crypto currencies to get stable, most probably mid of this year alt coins will start pumping.

I don't know why, all I am concerned with is that the market is green and alts are having a good time. If I had to say though, I would guess that all the fud from the countries is gone and all that remains is bullish sentiment and bullish fundamentals giving rise to bullish price action.

When bitcoin rise from the deep only fresh coins with huge potential follow him. Check tokens like Elastos or Aion - they will rise too and don't dump too much due strong expectations about this projects. But we still didn't see normal rise of BTC.

In any form of cryptocurrency trading Bitcoin is the benchmark of all coins and it is the top pairs to trade in any cois too like eth-btc , ltc-btc. xrp-btc, that's why it is still dominating in the cryptomarket. Besides may enterprise are adapting the bitcoin transactions.

Logically people who trades a lot will sell all their altcoins to purchase more bitcoin this is one of the reason why altcoins are not rising or sometimes falling when Bitcoin price is rising.

For the question why Bitcoin price rise faster than Altcoins, if you are a trader and market is unstable will you bet on an unproven coin. Me personally no I would rather buy a stable coin like Bitcoin or Ethereum before purchasing altcoins and I think traders actually are doing the same.

As a trader we have a saying that the trend is your friend and we will follow the bitcoin trend first before anything else.

Because it is the king of crypto.

The thing is that when most people think of crypto, the first thing that comes to their mind is bitcoin.

And I follow famous traders and they say that it's not about the fiat, it's about the bitcoin satoshi's. Meaning, they don't care about the current fiat value, but just increasing the number of BTC's they have.

BTC is the most stable cryptocurrency. In addition, most cryptocurrencies are traded in pair BTC/ETH. Therefore, it is more profitable for large investors to invest exactly in BTC. But we do not forget that some cryptocurrencies can even grow independently of the exchange rate of BTC.

You are right, that many people throw alt for bitcoin and if users want to buy alt, they definitely buy bitcoin first. That's why bitcoin becomes stable and keeps rising than any other alt. But some alt keep increasing, like eth, ltc and others. Perhaps more precisely the alt which does not increase is shitcoin.
From my point of view bitcoin is a lot of demand then bitcoin increases more when bitcoin falls lower but vice versa does not increase as much as bitcoin. That's why Bitcoin is stable and steadily increasing compared to other altcoins.

It is the pioneer coin and of all coins it is the most popular and has the biggest market cap. Many investors put a part of their money into an investment that is less risky and bitcoin is the best option. Why? Simply because it already has built a good market reputation and a strong foundation among supporters.
