"The market is recovering strongly, and I think it's highly likely that we've seen the correction, or are close to finishing it. From here on, get ready for a wonderful 2025. The journey with Altcoins will be truly brilliant." - Michaël van de Poppe, Co-Founder of MN Capital commented.
The renowned market trader il Capo Of Crypto sees the recent capital withdrawal as an opportunity to "buy the Dip". Although many Altcoins have returned to last month's prices and still need another uptrend to regain their December highs.
"Local Dip has likely formed or is about to happen. I've been waiting for this market correction, so now I'm buying. Currently, I've allocated 40% of my capital to the market, and I plan to buy more at key levels or when I see bullish signals on the lower timeframes. Facing uncertainty, conviction is the ultimate advantage." - Investor il Capo Of Crypto shared.
Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) Rises Again, But May Soon Correct
Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) has just had two strong weeks of increase and has even touched 60%. However, from the perspective of Benjamin Cowen - Founder of Into The Cryptoverse - this move may be similar to the 2021 period.
Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) is the proportion of Bitcoin's market capitalization in the total market capitalization. A decrease in BTC.D is a good sign for the Altcoin Season and vice versa.

From this perspective, BTC.D may be entering its final spike up towards the end of 2024 before a strong decline in early 2025. Cowen's suggestion also aligns with many forecasts that the Altcoin Season will continue to make a stronger comeback in 2025.
