๐ Swissblock: #BTC Dominance - Yearly Recap
The first half of the year was clearly BTC-led, dominance rising and marking bottoms and rotations.
In the second half, the picture flipped: dominance trended lower, making room for #ETH rotation, but never fully reclaiming leadership afterward.
Recent attempts to rebuild post-deleverage event, have weakened again into year-end, signaling low conviction in BTC leadership and a market still searching for a clear anchor.

๐ #BTC CQ: Bitcoin has been trading below the realized short-term holders (STH) price of $104K since October302025.
Historically, long periods where STH remains in a loss coincide with phases of clearing weak hands and transitioning supply to more stable holders with high conviction.
Until BTC can regain the realized STH price near $104K, market conditions are likely to remain uncomfortable for new entrants, which is more consistent with a transitional phase than a bear market.
