The dominance of the Bitcoin market has soared to around 60.05%, hitting a new high in a month.

The latest rise in Bitcoin's dominance could bring more trouble to other cryptocurrencies.

The latest slump in the crypto market seems to be the result of a combination of macroeconomic factors, diminished interest from institutions, and a chain of liquidations, rather than being caused by a single reason.

One of the key factors contributing to the weakening of the crypto market is the recent significant rise in oil prices following the escalation of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.

Driven by rising concerns in the market about a possible military strike by the United States against Iran and further disruptions to oil supply, the price of Brent crude oil soared above $105 per barrel on Thursday.
