Crypto Rover stated on X, “The stablecoin market cap is exploding. Bitcoin and altcoins will follow!” This view supports the idea of capital moving from Bitcoin into altcoins if dominance declines.Source :Crypto Rover(X)Michaël van de Poppe observed that the altcoin market cap has recently held a strong support level, with expectations of an upward move. Crypto Tamil also noted bearish divergence on the daily Bitcoin dominance chart.

According to recent estimates, Solana and Litecoin ETFs have a 90% approval chance. This could lead to increased demand for altcoins.
