The Altcoin sector has undergone “one of its largest devaluations never recorded” in the middle of the recent cryptography market, according to the digital asset analysis firm.
Glassnode Notes in a new analysis that altcoins have experienced significant sales pressure in recent weeks while Bitcoin (BTC) has surpassed each Altcoin sub-sector.
“We can assess the magnitude of the attraction by evaluating the 14 -day change in the world market capitalization of Altcoin. During the last fortnight, the Altcoin market capitalization decreased by 234 billion dollars, with a small handful of days of events recording a greater absolute draw.
The severity of this decklessness highlights the magnitude of the capitulation event and can be reasonably considered as an event within a lower market in the Altcoin sector.
This is quite interesting because Bitcoin does not seem to display the same relative weakness, suggesting that a divergence opens between BTC and the rest of the landscape of digital assets. »»
