\n

The Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D)<\/a> has made an unexpected climb into a historically strong resistance zone, now hovering near the 64.7% mark in the High Time Frame (HTF). This sharp move has sparked considerable interest among analysts and traders, with key technical indicators and chart formations suggesting a potential turning point that could usher in the long-awaited 2025 altcoin season<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Dominance Faces HTF Resistance\u00a0<\/h2>\n

The Bitcoin Dominance has been steadily climbing<\/a> for almost 3 years, underscoring the flagship cryptocurrency\u2019s enduring influence over the broader market. Notably, crypto analyst Gert van Lagen has unveiled<\/a> an unexpected uptick in BTC.D.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The analyst shared a technical chart analysis of Bitcoin Dominance, highlighting a confluence of bearish signals that mirror the 2021 market cycle \u2014 a period that led to a dramatic shift in capital from BTC to alternative cryptocurrencies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The analyst has pointed out that Bitcoin Dominance has now reached a key HTF resistance zone<\/a> of around 64%-76 %. The current chart also shows a rising wedge pattern, a typical indicator of market exhaustion before a potential trend reversal. This crucial wedge pattern has formed within the same HTF resistance zone where BTC.D topped out in past cycles, including the 2021 peak.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Bitcoin\"<\/p>\n

Adding to the bearish outlook, the Relative Strength Index (RSI)<\/a> is flashing a regular bearish divergence. While Bitcoin Dominance is pushing higher, RSI is failing to do the same, indicating weakening momentum. A similar setup occurred in 2021, where exaggerated bearish divergence foreshadowed the eventual breakdown of BTC.D and paved the way for an altseason<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If history is any guide, the market could be approaching another inflection point. As in the last cycle, Lagen believes that the actual top in Bitcoin Dominance<\/a> might not be confirmed until the uptrend structure breaks \u2014 a move that would likely shift attention to altcoins.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Expanding on the Bitcoin Dominance recent rise, other analysts like Ijaz Awan on X disclosed<\/a> that BTC.D is currently approaching a major resistance zone between 71.38% and 73.06%. The analyst highlights that this area has been a strong turning point in the past<\/a>, acting as a top back in 2017, 2019 and 2021. With Bitcoin Dominance nearing past peaks, the analyst predicts a potential start of the altcoin season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Is The Altcoin Season Really Coming?<\/h2>\n

In his post, Lagen concluded his analysis by stating that the altcoin season is dawning. Other prominent analysts share this view, believing that Bitcoin\u2019s Dominance serves as a key indicator<\/a> of an impending altcoin season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Notably, Karman Asghar, a crypto trader and analyst, confirmed<\/a> in an X post that a new altcoin season is brewing in 2025 as the Bitcoin Dominance chart flashes familiar warning signs. The analyst shared two parallel charts, comparing similar Bitcoin Dominance in 2021 and 2025<\/a>. Both charts displayed BTC.D forming a double top, with a clear bearish RSI divergence.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While the bearish RSI divergence<\/a> isn\u2019t a guaranteed trigger, its recurrence combined with historical market behaviour gives credibility to the idea that the market may be on the brink of another major altcoin season.<\/p>\n
