BTC dominance remained at yearly highs for broader altcoin recovery to gain traction.  But the early 2025 altcoin sell-off eased and bottomed out at the 2024 support level.  Bitcoin [BTC] dominance (BTC.D) has climbed higher in 2025 and dimmed the prospect of the much-awaited altcoin run-up.  It jumped 13% between January and April, shrinking the altcoin market (Total3, exclusive of BTC and ETH) from $1.13 trillion to $817 billion. That’s a 28% ($300B) decline in altcoin market size. Altcoin rebound incoming?  Source: BTC dominance vs Altcoin market cap (Total3)  A rising BTC.D means more capital flows from the altcoin sector…

This week, two well-known altcoins are drawing attention as investor interest grows. Shiba Inu (SHIB) is now forecasting a 2030 price of $0.0001971, supported by growing network activity and aggressive token burns. Cardano (ADA) remains firm near the $0.63 mark, showing potential signs of a breakout as May approaches. However, while these coins are riding speculation, Dragoin ($DDGN) is offering action. Its Telegram-based game is already live in beta, giving users a hands-on experience with its token ecosystem even before launch. Combined with audited smart contracts, a transparent roadmap, and a projected 6,700% presale ROI, Dragoin presents itself as a…

Transparency and verifiability are foundational principles that enable trust in Bitcoin.But as the space matured, some disadvantages of open source surfaced. Innovative smart contract platforms and decentralized finance (DeFi) applications were forked to create direct competitors — from the wave of Uniswap clones to Ethereum forks — which prioritized speed and lower fees over decentralization.As a result, some projects opted for closed-source development to protect proprietary designs and reduce the risk of exploits, hoping to delay or deter malicious actors…

Key takeaways:ETH price has underperformed its peers during the current bull market, but gas sponsorship could lure developers and traders back to the network.Ethereum’s upcoming Pectra upgrade promises to improve staking efficiency, potentially increasing demand for ETH.Data suggests ETH price bottomed. Will the Pectra narrative reignite bullish momentum?Since 2024, ETH (ETH) has been more of a meme than a market mover. Unlike most of its rivals, ETH still hasn’t reclaimed its all-time high of $4,870 from November 2021, and it regularly underperforms even in the weak altcoin market. Currently, ETH trades at $1,813, down 56% from its local peak in…
