Bitcoin’s dominance currently stands at 49.26%, showing a 0.31% decline within a 24-hour period. This news has caused concern among Bitcoin enthusiasts, as the cryptocurrency has been experiencing a downward trend in recent days. However, in a fascinating turn of events, the altcoin market is experiencing a surge.  Even some lesser-known altcoins with smaller market capitalization have seen significant growth on the current day.



The list of altcoins experiencing a surge includes popular cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, Polygon, Pepe, and Filecoin. These digital assets have seen notable increases in their value and market activity.

Ethereum (ETH)

Ethereum, often referred to as the silver coin, has witnessed a 2.28% increase in price today, reaching a significant milestone of $1,960. This is noteworthy considering the bearish trend it has experienced throughout the month. Over the past month, Ethereum’s price has only surged by 2.94%. Looking at the weekly perspective, it has shown a 4.32% increase, albeit struggling to recover from the bearish market conditions.

Today, the price of Ethereum reached a high of $1,895 and a low of $1,973. The decline in the Bitcoin market has played a role in fueling the rise of Ethereum’s price. Currently, Ethereum is displaying positive signs, leading people to anticipate its continued upward movement towards the resistance level of $2,000.
