Historical dominance of Bitcoin since 2013
Bitcoin dominance has seen significant changes over the years. In the early days of cryptocurrency, the BTC dominance was extremely high, as the cryptocurrency space was small and consisted of Bitcoin and a handful of smaller projects.
Over the years, a lot more resources and capital have been poured into the cryptocurrency and blockchain sector. This has resulted in projects like Ethereum delivering technological innovations and achieving substantial valuations. The year 2017 was especially important, as the rise of “altcoins” resulted in BTC dominance taking a big fall.
