Reversal

<p>Altcoins, eternal companions of Bitcoin, sadly watch their queen continue to reign supreme in the crypto kingdom. While the long-awaited ‘altcoin season’ seems elusive, everyone’s eyes remain fixed on the leader. Historically, Bitcoin’s rises have preceded altcoin surges, but this time, the scenario might play out differently.</p>

<p>Analysts like Benjamin Cowen, CEO of IntoTheCryptoverse, insist that the cryptocurrency market capitalization is currently undervalued.</p>
<p>He notes that “the potential rise could occur at the end of the halving year or during the first half of the post-halving year.”</p>
