Bitcoin has lost the $80,000 level as the market faces a wave of uncertainty that has erased the confidence built during weeks of gradual recovery.

Bitcoin rallied approximately 37% from the April lows, a recovery that carried it back toward the 200-day moving average at approximately $82,400 — a technical level that has acted as major resistance during previous bear market recovery attempts. The price reached that level and is now retreating from it. The historical parallel that XWIN Research Japan identifies is March 2022. At that point in the previous cycle, Bitc

The post 3 Altcoins in 2026 Market That Don’t Care About Bitcoin (BTC) appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In 2026, Bitcoin continues to dominate the larger crypto market cycle, but its hegemony over altcoin performance is eroding. The majority of significant assets, such as Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and Cardano, continue to move mostly in lockstep with Bitcoin, confirming its position as the market’s main source of liquidity and sentiment.

Hyperliquid, Tron, and Midnight are some of the most prominent names. HYPE’s positioning The swift growth of decentralized perpetual futures trading has made Hyperliquid one of the market’s strongest momentum assets.
