Ethereum Approaches “Do or Die” Level Against BTC, Analyst Claims

Ethereum spent most of 2020 outperforming Bitcoin by a large margin, thanks to the burning hot DeFi trend and the related tokens’ reliance on the second-ranked crypto asset.

But since things have reversed and Bitcoin has gone on its own individual run, on the ETHBTC trading pair, Ethereum has reached a point of “do or die” according to one crypto analyst. Here are the key levels and factors to look for in the weeks ahead to see if the top altcoin was able to withstand the force of a BTC bull run, or if it gets chewed up and spit out as Bitcoin has done so recently.

Ethereum Approaches Do Or Die Level Against On BTC Trading Pair

Bitcoin has been surging for the last few weeks while altcoins have struggled to come anywhere near close to the top crypto asset’s bullish momentum.

With so little BTC supply to go around, the buying has resulted in an explosive move. And with Bitcoin potentially heading off onto a new bull run, crypto investors have been dumping their altcoins and FOMO buying the leading cryptocurrency by market cap.

It has even put a major damper on Ethereum, which spent the rest of the year outperforming Bitcoin by a mile. But with DeFi floundering itself, there’s nothing left to prop up the top altcoin any longer. And its left Ethereum on the ropes against Bitcoin, and at a “do or die” level on the ETHBTC pair.

How A Bitcoin Bull Run Could Leave Altcoins And DeFi Bleeding Out

According to a crypto analyst and their interpretation of the ETHBTC chart, the top altcoin is facing a “do or die” level against Bitcoin.

If Ethereum falls further, the altcoin could dive on the USD pair, while Bitcoin keeps on racing toward all-time highs. Other crypto analysts have called for such a scenario to play out any day, and the theory is presently being proven correct.

BTC dominance, a crucial metric weighing Bitcoin against the rest of the crypto market cap, also points to prolonged altcoin weakness against the most dominant crypto.

Unfortunately for Ethereum, most takes suggest that the altcoin will choose “die” against Bitcoin for the rest of the year, but in early 2021, the altcoin season that follows will be something not to be missed.

I'm Tony Spilotro. Behind the pseudonym, I'm a digital media executive and global remote work leader with a decade of content experience and excellent. Here, I explore my newfound passions pertaining to privacy, finance, economics, politics, cryptography, property rights, and other libertarian-esque views. I am a Bitcoin evangelist, maximalist, and educator whenever I can be, helping to spread its message of freedom from government control, monetary policy mismanagement, and passing the buck - literally – to future generations. My journey from a curious retail crypto investor to a serious Bitcoin advocate, trader, and technical analyst is an unusual one, but life-changing nonetheless and has become less about money and more about a long-overdue revolution. While a firm believer in the laws governing math and science, I am profoundly fascinated by the impact of astrology and astronomy including moon and solar cycles and planetary alignment and their ability to influence and potentially predict markets. It hasn't yet clicked for me as to how to put anything to use, but I consider it my current rabbit hole I can't yet dig out of. My perspective of growing up alongside the internet, the dot com era, the Great Recession, and roots in video games collecting coins and rare items caused Bitcoin to immediately make sense to me. Through all of these lenses, I seek to produce content that is educational and entertaining, and I thank you sincerely for taking the time to read what I have to say. Please follow me on Twitter and feel free to drop me a line if you would like to work together.
