Ethereum Dominance — Live Chart & Daily History
Ethereum dominance is ETH’s share of the entire crypto market’s capitalization. Read alongside Bitcoin dominance, it shows whether capital rotating out of BTC is landing in ETH first — the classic first leg of an alt rotation — or bypassing it entirely. Information, not financial advice.

Daily Dominance History — first-party series, one snapshot per UTC day
This chart is drawing itself in — we record one first-party dominance snapshot per UTC day (the first row landed today), and the trend line appears at two rows, deepening every day after. Historical dominance is paid data everywhere else; this series is ours, free, forever.

Reading ethereum dominance
Rising ETH dominance historically means Ethereum is out-attracting the rest of the market — often the first leg of a broader rotation out of Bitcoin into risk.
Falling ETH dominance means capital is favoring Bitcoin (risk-off) or rotating past ETH into smaller altcoins (late-stage risk appetite). Pair it with the ETH/BTC ratio and the Altcoin Season Index for the full rotation picture. Descriptive context only — not a forecast, not a recommendation.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Ethereum dominance?
Ethereum dominance is Ethereum’s market capitalization divided by the total market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies, expressed as a percentage.
How is ETH dominance different from the ETH/BTC ratio?
The ETH/BTC ratio compares Ethereum only against Bitcoin. ETH dominance compares Ethereum against the whole market — so it also captures whether ETH is gaining or losing ground versus altcoins and stablecoins, not just versus BTC. The two together give a fuller rotation picture.
Where does this dominance history come from?
The current split comes from CoinGecko’s free global data. The daily history chart is Liquid State’s own first-party series — we record one dominance snapshot per UTC day, so the chart deepens every single day.
What does rising ETH dominance historically signal?
Historically, sustained ETH dominance gains have accompanied broad risk-on phases in crypto and often preceded wider altcoin strength — though every cycle differs, and dominance is a descriptive context read, not a predictive signal.
