Bitcoin's share of the cryptocurrency market rose to nearly 60% on October 8 as major altcoins like Ether, XRP, Solana, Dogecoin, and Zcash dropped more sharply. Bitcoin traded near $81,100 despite a 2.8% decline, while altcoins fell between 5.5% and 14%. The rise in Bitcoin dominance reflects altcoins losing value faster rather than Bitcoin gaining. Over $1 billion in liquidations occurred, with Ether alone accounting for $333 million. This shift reverses earlier trends when altcoins had stronger weekly gains reducing Bitcoin's market share to 56.5%.

This price action aligns with the reported increase in Bitcoin dominance near 60%, reflecting altcoins' steeper losses rather than Bitcoin's gains.
