The all-time high for market capitalization for the entire cryptocurrency space was $116 billion in June, and we currently sit just shy of that at $111 billion.

Those who have been following bitcoin for the last year know that bitcoin was hurt by its slowness to scale in the face of rapidly rising usage and it allowed many other cryptocurrencies which can handle larger volumes to gain on bitcoin’s dominance.

Bitcoin fell from 86% dominance in the crypto space to start the year to a low of 38% in June. But it has now begun to regain some of what it lost and rose about 50% just prior to the fork.

We’ll see if that continues now or not. And we’ll also see what kind of effect Bitcoin Cash has on the market in the coming weeks and months.

Believe it or not, this whole scaling issue still isn’t over and is expected to continue on at least until November.
