The data is clear: the <strong>TOTAL3<\/strong> index (crypto market cap excluding Bitcoin and <a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/crypto-investing\/buy\/ethereum\/\">Ethereum<\/a>) has just recorded its <strong>fourth consecutive year of decline against BTC.<\/strong> This marks a sharp break from the 2021 cycle, when altcoins dramatically outperformed the market leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Altcoins have now dropped against Bitcoin for 4 years in a row <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/K3rJhSh1tM\">pic.twitter.com\/K3rJhSh1tM<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Benjamin Cowen (@intocryptoverse) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intocryptoverse\/status\/2006539331486507151?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 1, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/learn\/crypto\/bitcoin\/halving-date\/\">Bitcoin<\/a> Dominance (BTC.D)<\/strong> continues to climb, rising from approximately 40% in 2022 to over <strong>60% in early 2026<\/strong>. In concrete terms, this means the vast majority of incoming capital, particularly through ETFs and institutional flows, is pouring exclusively into Bitcoin. The era when BTC profits automatically trickled down to smaller cap coins appears to be over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This structural divergence calls into question the very concept of &#8220;cycles&#8221; as we&#8217;ve known them. Where 2021 saw TOTAL3 explode by <strong>541%<\/strong>, recent attempts at altcoin <strong>rallies<\/strong> are systematically sold off, leaving retail investors holding heavy bags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-leverage-trap-why-alts-cant-take-off-anymore\">The Leverage Trap: Why Alts Can&#8217;t Take Off Anymore<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Why can&#8217;t altcoins launch a genuine <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/learn\/crypto-bullrun\/\">bull run<\/a><\/strong> anymore? The answer lies in market mechanics, specifically in <strong>funding rates<\/strong>. The altcoin market is <strong>saturated with leveraged long positions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Why is there no Altseason? <br><br>$125 billion has been liquidated in leverage this year alone.  If that capital went into spot assets instead:<br><br>&#8211; No thin liquidity across the market<br><br>&#8211; No cascade that results in market crashes<br><br>&#8211; Less selling pressure<br><br>&#8211; We could have a total crypto\u2026<\/p>&mdash; Ash Crypto (@AshCrypto) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AshCrypto\/status\/1986746533786820668?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 7, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This overcrowding of traders betting on upside creates a toxic environment. As soon as price attempts to rise, funding rates explode, making it expensive to maintain positions. Conversely, the slightest sideways movement or minor Bitcoin <strong>correction<\/strong> triggers cascading liquidations across altcoins. It&#8217;s a genuine <strong>trap<\/strong>: the volatility needed for a bullish explosion is suffocated by an overleveraged, over-indebted market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike Bitcoin, which benefits from robust institutional spot demand, altcoins remain <strong>the playground of retail speculation through derivatives<\/strong>. Without massive deleveraging or a major fundamental catalyst, the probability of seeing an alt season similar to 2021 diminishes with each passing day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+z-a5LKRM7HxkNWZk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Free Trades: Profits Even in Bear Markets!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bitcoin-at-90000-should-you-abandon-altcoins-in-2026\">Bitcoin at $90,000: Should You Abandon Altcoins in 2026?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With Bitcoin trading around <strong>$90,000<\/strong> in early January, the question of portfolio allocation becomes critical. Should you capitulate on altcoins to take refuge in the safe haven? While the underlying trend remains <strong>bearish<\/strong> for the ETH\/BTC ratio and other pairs, selective opportunities could emerge in specific ecosystems like Solana, which are attempting to decouple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, caution is warranted. If Bitcoin dominance continues its climb toward <strong>70%<\/strong>, liquidity in altcoins could dry up further. Although Bitcoin should find a bottom in 2026, you&#8217;ll need to <strong>selectively<\/strong> choose only altcoins with solid fundamentals. Speculative memecoins are likely to continue <strong>suffering from this excess of longs and leverage effects.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Related content:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/crypto-news\/solana-prediction-sol-january-2026\/\">Solana Prediction: What to Expect for SOL in January 2026?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/crypto-news\/bitcoin-ethereum-xrp-predicting-their-prices-for-january-2026\/\">Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP: Predicting their prices for January 2026<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/crypto-news\/bitcoin-6-percent-gain-close-2025-green\/\">Bitcoin needs 6% gain to close 2025 in the green: Can it happen?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After four years of waiting, investors are still anticipating a revival in altcoin euphoria.
