Crypto analyst says Ethereum price will fall to $2,500. Here’s why:
The price of Ethereum is closing in on Bitcoin’s recent performance, and as the price of Bitcoin has trended lower, the price of ETH has followed suit. However, Ethereum itself appears to have more bearish fundamentals compared to Bitcoin, leading cryptocurrency analysts to believe that the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization could fall further from here.
Ethereum is poised to experience a bigger crash
A cryptocurrency analyst known as Shin Forex took to the TradingView website to share some interesting analysis on the Ethereum price. Analysis focused on the ETH/BTC chart revealed some details regarding the development of the ETH price.
The analyst explained that Ethereum’s liquidity was decreasing during this period. Instead of flowing to altcoins like ETH, it is flowing to Bitcoin. This means there is growing apathy towards Ethereum from investors and as liquidity flows towards Bitcoin, Ethereum currently has nothing to back it up.
Additionally, the cryptocurrency analyst explains that the ETH/BTC pair has now fallen below the support level of 0.05. Now, falling below the support level is significant considering what has happened every time it has been broken. Shin Forex points back to the last two market cycles (2016 and 2019) when ETH/BTC was below support.
Both times this happened, prices plummeted before rising again. The cryptocurrency analyst does not expect anything to be different this time around and believes ETH/BTC will fall below 0.04. If this happens, Ethereum will skyrocket and analysts have set a price target of around $2,500 for it.
