Dominance Sentiment

An aggregate read of the BTC dominance trend: Altseason, Risk-Off or Neutral.

Dominance sentiment is a summary label of where capital is flowing in crypto, based on changes in Bitcoin dominance (with ETH as a secondary input). Altseason means falling BTC dominance and a broad rotation of capital into altcoins, meaning risk appetite is rising. Risk-Off is rising BTC dominance at the expense of alts: capital flees to safer crypto or stablecoins. Neutral describes the absence of a clear trend. It's a shortcut to gauge the alt market as a whole, not a signal for a single coin. Dominance can rise both in downturns (capital fleeing alts) and in rallies (BTC leading the bull run). Read it together with stablecoin dominance and market breadth.

In plain words

Tells you whether capital is fleeing into Bitcoin (Risk-Off) or spreading into altcoins (Altseason). It's a picture of the whole alt market, not a single coin.

Example

BTC dominance falls for a third straight week while altcoins broadly rise → Sentiment: Altseason. When BTC dominance spikes in panic and alts fall harder than BTC → Risk-Off.
