Bitcoin’s dominance is also steady, above 50%, currently sitting at 51.2%. This is the metric analysts use to gauge its share relative to that of the rest of the market.

Altcoins Also Consolidate

Most of the altcoins are also trading in the green. However, they are charting slight increases, which is more indicative of a consolidation phase. There are certain exceptions, of course.

Shiba Inu (SHIB), for example, is up by 3.3% in the past 24 hours, which makes it the best-performing altcoin among those with larger market capitalization.
