Breaking: Altcoin Market Is Gradually Declining Without Any Signs Of Recovery

2025 has not been kind to crypto. Since the beginning of the year, prices have fluctuated a lot. The landscape saw some tremendous highs and some crushing lows at the same time. For example, the BTC price reached an all-time high of around 108,000 dollars in January and soon fell. Meanwhile, the altcoin ecosystem staged a full-fledged rally. Once this was done, Trump and his crypto-friendly outlook policies changed the landscape as crypto adoption rates skyrocketed in the US. Therefore, a lot has happened this January.  

Amidst all the happenings and fear of a trade war, altcoins seemed to have suffered significantly. As per data released by Glassnode, the altcoin market suffered a total of $234 billion loss. Such a huge loss has hit the market like a deluge and left investors picking up pieces of their major losses across the board.  

Analysts at Glassnode claim that BTC prices dropped as rumors of trade wars took over. However, things are different for altcoins. The market has experienced major losses due to a complex gamut of regulatory and technological problems. Famous crypto analyst Ali has pinpointed two primary challenges: side selling pressure and a general lack of mainstream adoption.  

Can It Recover? 

CMC data of the past 24 hours show that the overall crypto market cap is recording a 2.68% drop. This means that the sector is currently recording a downward slump, even after a recent recovery, the prices seem to be still declining rapidly. Just recently, the coin experienced another modest price crash. As a result, the current altcoin market is hovering in red.  

However, it would be wrong to assume that every coin is experiencing a declining trend. A popular FTX token has shown modest gains in the last 24 hours. On the other hand, major crypto tokens like Solana and XRP are showing a gradual decline with no scope of slowing down. Given the current stance, predicting or making assumptions about the altcoin market recovery would be challenging. This means things might go for better or for worse. Follow for more crypto news.
