Altcoins gained 21% and still lost ground to Bitcoin. What would finally turn the tables?

Altcoins gained roughly 21% but still underperformed Bitcoin, underscoring Bitcoin’s continued dominance and stronger relative demand. A sustained altcoin-led reversal would likely require Bitcoin dominance to decline alongside improved liquidity, risk appetite, and catalysts specific to major altcoins. Bitcoin’s own trajectory remains central: reaching about $82,900 could help miners avoid a looming margin squeeze, while weakness below that level may create broader market pressure.
