Analyst Notes

According to crypto analyst Michael Van de Poppe, Bitcoin continues to exhibit weakness compared to other assets. He points out that the Nasdaq is gaining momentum, while gold remains strong and the Dollar is declining along with Yields.

In this scenario, a desirable long entry point would be if Bitcoin makes a move towards the range of $27.1k-27.3K. However, it is important to note that if Bitcoin falls below a certain level, it would invalidate the uptrend and potentially target $26.3K. “Still think Q4 is up.”

Crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen, expressed his opinion on the future of Ethereum. According to Cowen, Ethereum is facing the possibility of a collapse by the end of the year. “We’ve still got to see ETH go home, my friends, and it hasn’t happened yet. So, I think that it will. And again, you can see on these lower time frames, at least over the last year and a little over a year, that it’s trying to hold those levels. But again, at some point, it likely breaks, and when it does, that’s likely when Ethereum starts to head home.”

On-chain analytics platform Santiment said that during the past week, most market caps in the crypto industry have seen slight corrections. Surprisingly, Bitcoin has remained stable at the $27.4K level. Notably, two cryptocurrencies that have stood out are XMR, which has experienced a 3.7% increase, and RNDR, with a 4.5% increase. These conditions historically favor BTC maximalist.
