Altcoins Break Through 50% of Global Crypto Trading Volume
The numbers just shifted. Altcoins now command over half of all cryptocurrency trading volume, flipping what used to be bitcoin and ethereum's dominant territory.
What's driving this? Traders are hunting for the next big move—pumping capital into non-BTC, non-ETH assets where volatility means opportunity. The speculative energy is real, and it's reshaping how volume flows across markets. Whether this trend sticks or reverses depends on which way the wind blows next.

It's just a temporary hype; when the pullback happens, you'll be crying and calling for your mom.

Another round of gambler's frenzy, altcoins have finally turned around, but who knows how long this wind will last.

That's the gambler's mentality—those who chase highs will always be the ones chasing highs.
