Shiba Inu and XRP: In Between The Momentum That Was and Momentum The World Wants
Shiba Inu and XRP both share a common investor sentiment. They both are highly revered crypto tokens, which once explored the apex of their paths before falling back to lower price ranges. For SHIB, its iconic 2021 price rally is still very fresh in the crypto community, whereas for XRP, the token’s liberated momentum before the US SEC crackdown was the highlight for investors to bank on before. But the tides of time changed, and both the tokens had to explore lower price ranges before they could stabilize eventually.
Shiba Inu is still grappling to score a new high, while XRP is unable to secure new momentum, despite it being in the midst of rising ETF hype.
However, per expert That Martini Guy on X, Bitcoin dominance has lately been decreasing, hinting at a potential altcoin surge.
“Bitcoin dominance can be used to understand market sentiment. When BTC dominance is high, it generally implies that investors are more confident in Bitcoin relative to other cryptocurrencies. This can be during times of market uncertainty or volatility. When investors may see Bitcoin as a ‘safer’ bet because of its larger size and more established reputation. Conversely, when BTC dominance is low, it could mean that investors are more willing to take risks on others. Potentially higher-reward cryptocurrencies.” As explained by CoinMarketCap
