$BTC.D is shaping up like a potential Head & Shoulders — but patterns mean nothing without confirmation. Remember: Bitcoin dominance tracks capital allocation, not price direction. A drop in BTC.D doesn’t automatically mean Bitcoin is bearish — it often signals capital rotating into alts. Historically, dominance falls during: • Late expansion phases (altcoin rotation) • Transitional leadership shifts The structure only matters if we see a confirmed breakdown and acceptance below the neckline on higher timeframes. Until then, it’s just potential. The real question isn’t “Will BTC.D fall?” It’s where liquidity flows next. Rotation = healthy expansion. Liquidity contraction = broader weakness. Patterns grab attention. Confirmation defines reality.
