2025 has already become a watershed year for the crypto market. Looking back at the year's performance, Bitcoin maintained its dominance with a 57.53% market share, continuing to lead the market trend, while the total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies remained stable at around $3 trillion.

In terms of coin performance, ZEC became the star of the year, while mainstream coins like SOL, ADA, and LINK received widespread attention for their continuous innovation and ecosystem development. Emerging players such as ALGO, TAO, SEI, and TEL also gradually gained prominence. This reflects investors' reallocation across different sectors.

It is worth noting that the average cryptocurrency relative strength index is 48.28, and the alternative season index is only 19/100, indicating that although the market is active, funds show a clear preference for mainstream coins over smaller tokens. This divergence suggests that the market at the end of 2025 is in a period of structural adjustment, and investors need to carefully identify opportunities and risks.

Seeing this data at 3 AM... 57.53% and 48.28, the difference in these ratios is quite intriguing. How big is the liquidity gap between mainstream coins and small coins? We need to look at the slippage of each trading pair to have a say. Is the big rise in ZEC truly backed by fundamentals, or is an arbitrage machine running?

Bitcoin dominates with a 57% market share, is this going to be a monopoly? ZEC suddenly turns into a star, who predicted that? Raise your hand. Funds are flowing into mainstream coins, small-cap coins should really despair. A market size of 3 trillion yuan, it’s still not enough, it needs to be even more aggressive. The structural adjustment period means it’s a bit risky to enter now. These data look active, but in reality, small coins are being abandoned. Mainstream coins may innovate, but why are SOL and ADA still so resilient? The alternative season index is 19 points, making it a tough year for small-cap investors.

Bitcoin remains so dominant; a 57% market share says it all. No matter how other coins try to scramble, they're just eating leftovers... However, ZEC's counter-trend reversal is indeed interesting, but looking at the alternative season index of 19, funds have long since moved to the mainstream. The spring for small-cap coins is still a long way off.

The dominance of Bitcoin continues, but ZEC suddenly turns around? Feels a bit like hype... Funds are still holding onto mainstream coins, this is the current situation. Small altcoins really depend on luck, with the alternative season index at only 19, indicating that most people are still betting on BTC and SOL... During structural adjustment periods, there are many tricks and high risks. 2025 might very well be the year for mainstream coins to be harvested; for small and medium projects, it's better to forget it, too risky.

nah, that 57.53% dominance figure feels off... traced the whale wallets yesterday and the actual distribution pattern suggests something's not adding up. altseason index at 19/100 is basically screaming "stay away from shitcoins" but nobody ever listens, do they

BTC 57.53% dominance is really fierce. Small coins are just being pressed down and rubbed... The alternative season's 19 points are a bit disappointing.

Bitcoin is still just squeezing toothpaste there; the real money-making opportunities have long been snatched up by big players. Why did ZEC become the star of the year? Why didn't I catch that... Mainstream coins are stable, small coins are dead—this is 2025.

Bitcoin still attracts so much money, 57.53% is really incredible. How can small coins keep up... --- ZEC Annual Star? Why didn't I get it? I'd rather hoard SOL. --- The structural adjustment period is just about cutting leeks, who cares about caution, just get in when you should. --- Stabilizing at 3 trillion USD is pretty good, much better than two years ago. --- Alternative season only scored 19 points... Are small coins completely finished? --- Mainstream coins are soaring, but Alt Season is so weak, do beginners still dare to try? --- No wonder everyone is talking about embracing Bitcoin, there's no hope for others. --- Isn't this just a naked Matthew Effect? The strong get stronger, the weak are eliminated.
