Shiba Inu, Dogecoin, and Cardano could be on the brink of a major rally in 2025 as Bitcoin and Ethereum dominance near a potential peak. This shift in market control may pave the way for a powerful altcoin season.
Bitcoin and Ethereum Dominate as Altcoins Wait for Their Turn
According to U.Today, the present market domination levels of Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Tether (USDT), and USD Coin (USDC)—approaching 80%—indicate that things may be shifting in the cryptocurrency space.
With one more push to this resistance level before the year ends, the market could witness a reversal. This is because the dominance of these main assets has historically peaked at roughly 82%. Altcoins, like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Cardano, might see a surge in value in 2025 if dominance begins to decline.
Altcoin Season: Will Investor Interest Shift Away from BTC and ETH?
Altcoins with less market capitalization have often been overshadowed by Bitcoin and Ethereum. However, when this supremacy begins to wane, investors often start pouring their money into alternative cryptocurrencies, a phenomenon known as altcoin season.
Famous altcoins with large user bases and community support may benefit the most from this trend.
Dogecoin and Shiba Inu Poised for Potential Comeback
Community rallies for Dogecoin and Shiba Inu have been strong in the past, with help from celebrities and social media. After a recent slump, DOGE suggests a possible rebound, especially if investor attitude becomes risk-taking as BTC's dominance dwindles.
Similarly, SHIB's ecosystem improvements and network of supporters might lead to a return if funds begin to stream into community and meme-based tokens. A strong competitor, meanwhile, is Cardano, which places an emphasis on sustainable development and scalability blockchain technologies.
Cardano’s Strategy and the Push for Altcoin Growth
There has been some stabilization around these levels for ADA, and with the implementation of more DeFi projects and smart contracts on its network, Cardano may get the push it needs to surpass its recent range as Bitcoin and Ethereum lose their supremacy.
