<h2 id="key-points">Key Points</h2> 
<ul> 
 <li>Bitcoin’s market dominance has decreased, and Over the Counter (OTC) reserves have increased.</li> 
 <li>Ethereum maintains the second-largest market dominance, while Bitcoin’s price volatility deters potential buyers.</li> 
</ul>  
<p>Bitcoin’s recent attempts at recovery have faced a slight setback, with the cryptocurrency experiencing a minor decline in the last 24 hours.</p> 
<p>A significant amount of Bitcoin has accumulated with no apparent buyers in the market.</p> 
<h2 id="decrease-in-bitcoin-dominance">Decrease in Bitcoin Dominance</h2> 
<p>Bitcoin’s dominance in the cryptocurrency market has witnessed a notable drop as the cryptocurrency struggles to maintain its value.</p> 
<p>Analysis indicates that Bitcoin’s dominance was above 54% at the end of the trading session on June 24.</p> 
<p>However, by the end of the following day, it had fallen to around 52.28%.</p> 
<p>This swift decrease within 24 hours suggests that while Bitcoin was losing value, some altcoins were performing relatively better and gaining market share.</p> 
<p>At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance has experienced a slight decrease but still hovers around the 53% mark.</p> 
<p>This level of dominance signifies that Bitcoin still accounts for over half of the total cryptocurrency market capitalization.</p> 
<h2 id="bitcoin-dominance-vs-other-assets">Bitcoin Dominance vs. Other Assets</h2> 
<p>Bitcoin’s market cap stands at over $1.2 trillion, with the total crypto market cap at approximately $2.27 trillion.</p> 
<p><a href="https://coineagle.com/price/ethereum/">Ethereum</a> has the second-largest market dominance, making up almost 18% of the total market cap.</p> 
<p>Analysis shows that changes in Bitcoin’s price and performance can significantly impact the distribution of market capitalization among various cryptocurrencies.</p> 
<h2 id="bitcoin-accumulation-in-otc-reserves">Bitcoin Accumulation in OTC Reserves</h2> 
<p>Recent data from CryptoQuant reveals a noticeable increase in the volume of Bitcoin held in Over the Counter (OTC) reserves.</p> 
<p>Over the last six weeks, more than 103,000 Bitcoin, valued at over $6 billion based on current prices, have been added to these reserves.</p> 
<p>This accumulation indicates a significant rise in the OTC reserve balance.</p> 
<p>The continuous increase in OTC reserves suggests a lack of buyers at the moment, which could be attributed to the recent decline in Bitcoin’s price.</p> 
<p>This fall in price may be discouraging potential buyers, leading to the accumulation of the reserves.</p> 
<p>The dynamics between the falling price and the increasing OTC reserves highlight the cautious stance of larger market participants during periods of price volatility.</p> 
<p>As of this writing, Bitcoin was trading at approximately $61,680 on a daily time frame chart, with a minor decline of less than 1%.</p>
