The month of April witnessed a significant increase in the total web traffic percentage compared to that of March, which had registered only a 9% increase from the previous month. The following surge could be attributed to various factors. The rise in the dominance of Altcoins can be one of the catalysts. Ethereum hitting its ATH, other altcoins that moved up in terms of dominance were XRP and DOGE. XRP and DOGE saw hyped-based rallies carrying the price higher which resulted in sentiments turning bullish for the coins.
