BTC dominance climbs to 58.86% — highest since July 2025

Bitcoin&#x27;s share of total crypto market cap has reached 58.86%, the highest reading since July 2025, as capital continues to concentrate in the leading asset. The move comes on the back of more than two months of sustained Bitcoin strength, with <a class="ticker-mention" href="/en-US/token/btc">BTC</a> up over 6% in May alone.

Elevated dominance typically signals that altcoin rotation has stalled — investors are either staying in Bitcoin or moving to stablecoins rather than spreading into smaller caps. Until dominance peaks and rolls over, the broader altcoin market historically struggles to mount a sustained rally.
