Bitcoin dominance - where do you expact it?

[Idrisu]

When you come into the market bitcoin should be dominating others coins in a high percentage but Now that many coins and tokens are coming into the market daily you should now expect the percentage to reduce. I think the more coins that comes into the market the more bitcoin's dominant reduce.

Bitcoin dominance has been swinging between around 30-80% in the last year or so. As the market matures and more serious competitors rise and gain serious traction, market dominance will probably keep reducing in time. Just see what Ether and ripple take away from the dominance.

It's not really a bad thing though, as long as it stays the biggest coin by some margin, I don't see bitcoin failing because it has lower market dominance.

We can see from the different threads here about Ethereum and Ripple,
people asking if they are the ones to topple Bitcoin,
funds are flowing into these instead of bitcoin and out of bitcoin
also to many many other very popular coins and yet more to come over the year and beyond so market share will most likely reduce.

The main thing is that Bitcoin stays No.1

That was long time ago. Around June of last year, Ethereum suddenly surges in prices and push to all-time-highs that's why a lot of its advocates though that a "Flippening" could happen. It never did.

Same as Ripple, Just last month alone Ripple also become the #2 coins, overtaking Ethereum and fan boys quickly says its gonna chase Bitcoin. The "Rippening" also failed.

With that said, I don't think that there will be a coin so strong to overcome Bitcoin's dominance. It already established itself and I don't think that they can easily push it back on the sideline. Too much money invested already and I doubt whales will allow bitcoin to get the #2 spot.

The only scenario I see where bitcoin dominance increases over the long term is one where there is a big fall across the whole market. Long term (years) it's hard to think that bitcoin will have a dominance of more than 10%. It is one coin against over one thousand, it's just not feasible that bitcoin can retain its dominance. With every new ICO bitcoin dominance falls just a little bit more.

I was talking about the short-medium term.

If we're talking long term then I honestly can't see anything but bitcoin dominance going up. Sooner or later people are going to realise that we only need a peer to peer electronic cash system with no middlemen and that's exactly what bitcoin offers.

Right now, people are getting hyped over ICOs with unnecessary features. When this craze dies off, bitcoin dominance will naturally go up.

Long term, 70-80% should be an average for BTC dominance honestly. Can't see it staying under 50% in the long run.

Short-medium term I would expect it to head back to around 50% in the coming months. Alts are sliding and bitcoin is recovering, it only lost a lot of its dominance because of the crazy alt run in December/January.

Long term we'll have to agree to disagree, while I think many will realise what you pointed out, I do feel at the same time that there will still be a large amount of other projects that enjoy good success and in the 1 versus many battle the many will win out.

What the hell I'm reading here...
So bitcoin dominance will be knocked down to 10% in the future and this because of the hundreds of ICOs happening...

Let me tell tell you my prediction also...
When the whole nonsense with building a chain and a token for every conceivable thing in this world, from tokens that deal in skincare, recycling used tampons, counting calories in eucalyptus leaves and tagging the koala population will finally end there will be no ICO coins or token with more than 1% market share.

If there is indeed one coin that will challenge its domination, it's not going to be a coin launched by a company via a sale.
Not some premined centralized shitcoin.

When it comes to bitcoin I always look not the price or dominance in terms of numbers but in the position as priority of each an every investors mind. You can tell by every words and the way they defend it and that’s good enough for me. I’m a hardcore bitcoin user in my own way and even what we experienced right now will not change anything, it’s more of personal and emotional attachment rather than money matters.

User eminemcookie actually brought up a very good point, which if the trend continues, it at some point might become reality that Bitcoin's market cap dominance (which is a nonsense measuring stick IMO) will drop below 10%. It's just one coin versus soon to be more than 2000 coins, and exactly here is where the quantity takes over the quality of a certain coin. Good thing is that it doesn't mean anything, because even if Bitcoin's market cap dominance drops below 5%, it's still meaningless -- the only thing that matters is the actual usage and the capital that's flowing through Bitcoin's ecosystem. I can't see any coin come even close to Bitcoin in that aspect, and especially so with off-chain scaling applications allowing people to tackle Bitcoin's on-chain limitations. People for once just need to stop looking at market cap dominance -- the only thing that actually matters is market share.

Bitcoin dominance is prediction. No one knows exactly what will be the right date, so allow me to say the prediction could be a prediction and sometimes can lead to mislead. Better have prediction but don't rely to prediction coz it is predication "" sure"" or "" not sure"".

I also believe that marketcap is irrelevant, and I've always said it's one of the things that trick newbies into buying shitcoins.

But, if we talk about BTC going below 10%, at this point it will probably mean some coin will surpass it and even if not, that the amount poured into ICOs would reach levels of....pure stupidity.

You can fake a few millions of market cap, you can even fake a few billions, but not a trillion!!!!
Even if we consider bitcoin to remain at this level, the global market cap would have to grow with 1.4 trillion as we speak, and all of them in altcoins.
If BTC would reach 20k again , the number will just double to close to 3 trillions.

No, if this happens I will probably really lose even more faith in the human race. I wonder if I still have some left....

Prediction based on facts and figures and overall global economy can help you make a estimation regarding which way or how the markets could rise or fall. But yes those are just an estimates and may not be 100% correct but yes anything if you can reach as close to it is your target to achieve your goal.

Bitcoin dominance will continue and is here to stay because it has been the brand of cryptocurrency itself. For price, it could hit another ATH around $50k if the bullish trend continues. Predictions vary and it could or could not happen. In crypto world, you must anticipate every possibilities and have a ready decision whenever it happens. What's important in investment is sticking to your own strategy in achieving your own goal, just use others' guidance when it's applicable to you.
