Bitcoin Is Running — But the Market Isn’t

Craig’s read right now is pretty straightforward: Bitcoin is still trending higher, printing higher lows and higher highs, but the move doesn’t feel clean or broadly supported. He calls it a “hated rally” — price is moving up, but without strong conviction across the market. The weekly action was messy, volatility spiked, and while Bitcoin has pushed to new highs in this recent leg, he’s watching closely to see if any real momentum follows or if this stalls out.The bigger story is dominance. Bitcoin dominance has broken out and is now sitting around 61%, rising for five straight weeks. That tells you exactly what’s happening under the surface: this is a Bitcoin-led move, not a full market rally. Most altcoins are still lagging hard. Ethereum, Binance, Cardano, and others are either sideways or still in weaker structures, with very little consistent trend. Even some of the stronger names are struggling to keep up.Craig’s takeaway is that opportunity right now is selective, not broad. Bitcoin has been the cleanest trend, while altcoin trades require precision and short-term execution. His focus remains on following the trend where it exists, not forcing trades where it doesn’t. Bottom line: Bitcoin is doing the heavy lifting, dominance is rising, and until that changes, this isn’t a full crypto bull run — it’s a Bitcoin-driven move. Hosted on Acast.
