 <h2 id="b-altcoin-reckoning-b"><b>Altcoin Reckoning?</b></h2> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Benjamin Cowen uses the term “reckoning” to imply a correction in the market as previously overvalued altcoins find their true market value. In another post, he pointed out that the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="ETH" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/eth.html">ETH</a>/BTC trading pair was the last to rise during the bull market and could be the last to fall in the bear market, stating, “In the end, even the giants will fall.”&nbsp;</span></p> 
 <blockquote> 
  <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">However, Cowen’s observations need to be taken in context with the cryptocurrency market’s highly speculative and volatile nature, where price movements can be unpredictable.</span></p> 
 </blockquote> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cowen </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">noted</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> that the ALT/BTC trading pair is currently at 0.47, with the Bollinger Moving Standard Band (BMSB) at 0.48-0.50, where it will likely get rejected. He also warned that ALT/BTC pairs could capitulate if Bitcoin closes below BMSB. Cowen added that the temporary drop in dominance has given many a false sense of security with altcoins.</span></p>

  <p>BMSB at 0.48-0.50 (likely to get rejected).</p> 
  <p>ALT / BTC pairs likely to capitulate so long as BTC closes below its BMSB.</p> 
  <p>Because dominance is temporarily down, it has lulled many into a false sense of security with ALTs. pic.twitter.com/ZTcSsEeoss</p>

 <h2 id="b-bitcoin-dominance-and-ethereum-s-struggle-b"><b>Bitcoin Dominance and Ethereum’s Struggle</b></h2> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Another cryptocurrency analyst, CrediBULL Crypto, concurred with Cowen’s views. He recently commented on the significance of Bitcoin holding its local low while Ethereum broke it during a recent market flush. However, CrediBULL Crypto believes that Bitcoin will likely outperform Ethereum and most altcoins in the coming months as the market trends toward new all-time highs.</span></p> 
 <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> 
  <p lang="en" dir="ltr">The fact that $BTC held its local low while $<a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="ETH" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/eth.html">ETH</a> broke it on this recent flush is VERY significant imo.</p> 
  <p>I believe this is another sign that $BTC will outperform against <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="ETH" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/eth.html">ETH</a> and most alts in the coming months as we continue our uptrend to new all time highs. </p>

 </div> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Recalling a similar situation when Bitcoin was at 10k in 2020, right before its rally to 60k+, CrediBULL Crypto pointed out that any movement above the low marked off on the Bitcoin chart, at 24.8k (often referred to as “25k” for simplicity), is a distraction and doesn’t change the high time frame bullish market structure. He cited that these lows held on major spot exchanges, including Coinbase, Binance, Bitstamp, Kraken, and Kucoin.</span></p> 
 <h2 id="b-where-is-crypto-market-headed-b"><b>Where is crypto market headed?</b></h2> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At the time of writing, the price of Bitcoin stands at </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">$25,997.83</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> with a 24-hour trading volume of $32,458,634,133, down 6.58% in the last 24 hours. Bitcoin’s market cap is currently $505,946,434,039 with a circulating supply of 19,461,106 BTC coins and a max. supply of 21,000,000 BTC coins.</span></p> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Meanwhile, Ethereum’s price is at </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">$1,659.75</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> with a 24-hour trading volume of $14,956,030,349, a decrease of 4.38% in the last 24 hours. Ethereum’s market cap is $199,259,699,043, with a circulating supply of 120,053,868 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="ETH" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/eth.html">ETH</a> coins.</span></p> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Despite the current market conditions, it remains essential for investors to conduct thorough research and exercise caution in their investment decisions.</span></p>
