TechFlow news, December 17 — Matrixport released its daily analysis stating that although Bitcoin's market dominance had previously declined and tactical models briefly suggested potential for a temporary altcoin rebound, the rebound momentum failed to continue as the total crypto market cap weakened again and showed signs of decline.
Over the past one to two years, altcoins have generally underperformed, with market preference favoring Bitcoin in most phases. Notably, it is historically uncommon for altcoins to consistently underperform during a Bitcoin bull market.
Analysts point out that in the current environment, traders are increasingly focusing on top-tier assets with higher liquidity and better trading depth, while risk control and position management have become significantly more important. Overall, the market is gradually shifting from a relatively passive "long-term holding plus dollar-cost averaging" phase toward a trading environment emphasizing timing entry points, active positioning, and drawdown control.
