Bitcoin rally outpaces rest of crypto market this week

Bitcoin rose about 24% over the week, increasing its share of the total crypto market as gains lagged elsewhere.

Reported · Written up by our desk · Market Structure

Bitcoin is rallying faster than the rest of the crypto market, highlighting a growing concentration of momentum in the flagship asset, according to Decrypt.

The outlet said Bitcoin gained roughly 24% over the week, while the broader crypto market increased by less, creating a noticeable performance mismatch.

That divergence is also reflected in market share, with Bitcoin taking up a larger portion of the total crypto market as other tokens failed to match its pace.
