Bitcoin dominance has approached a long-standing diagonal resistance line, while the ETH\/BTC pair trades near cyclical lows, according to the chart data.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>Historical patterns show that when Bitcoin (BTC) dominance reversed from similar resistance levels while ETH\/BTC bottomed at support zones, multi-month altcoin rallies followed in both 2017 and 2021. The chart marks these reversal points with red circles, each corresponding to the start of periods identified as altcoin seasons.<\/p>\n<p>The ETH\/BTC pair currently sits at what the analysis identifies as a historical support area. Bitcoin dominance, measured as Bitcoin\u2019s share of total cryptocurrency market capitalization, is showing signs of potential reversal from resistance levels, according to the technical indicators presented.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Altcoin season<\/h2>\n<p>Previous altcoin seasons, marked in green zones on the chart, began when Bitcoin dominance broke down and the ETH\/BTC pair moved upward from oversold territory. The current positioning of both indicators resembles those earlier turning points, the analysis states.<\/p>\n<p>The cryptocurrency market has experienced selling pressure across major assets in recent weeks, with liquidity conditions remaining challenged. Bitcoin dominance and ETH\/BTC alignment patterns have preceded significant capital rotation in past cycles, though no guarantee exists that historical patterns will repeat, according to market observers.<\/p>\n<p>Technical analysts note that market rotations have historically occurred during periods of negative sentiment. The indicators suggest a potential setup for capital movement from Bitcoin to alternative cryptocurrencies if Bitcoin dominance reverses from current levels, similar to previous cycle transitions.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technical analysis shows Bitcoin dominance at resistance and ETH\/BTC near support, often signaling capital rotation and major altcoin rallies in past cycles.
