Crypto Analyst Expects 20% Ethereum Drop, Altcoin Capitulation in 2 Weeks

Nothing but carnage has been seen across the altcoin market, with major crypto assets like Ethereum and Ripple falling to fresh lows and causing widespread panic across the space.

While most crypto investors are starting to suspect that a bottom might for altcoins might be set, one crypto analyst says that Ethereum could drop another 20% or more from here, and that “real alt capitulation starts” in just two weeks.

Ethereum to Drop Over 22% Against Bitcoin Trading Pair, According to Analyst

Ethereum holders have already taken a beating since the ICO boom helped bring the price per ETH to as much as $1,400 each. The fall from grace represents an over 85% drop from the previous all-time high, and some skeptics suggest that some altcoins may never again reach their all-time highs – even if Bitcoin were to reach $100,000.

On the flipside, many believe that the recent extreme fear across the altcoin market and accelerated sell pressure suggests that the altcoin market bottom is in, or close to it. “Major cap” altcoins like Ethereum and Ripple have rebounded strongly after falling through long-term support and sweeping to new lows in their BTC trading pairs.

While some are thinking that the crypto market is on the cusp of an alt season where the lost ground in altcoins will easily be made up against Bitcoin, one crypto analyst sees Ethereum falling yet another 22% relative to Bitcoin via the ETH/BTC trading pair.

Crypto Analyst: Real Altcoin Capitulation Comes in Two Weeks Time

The sentiment surrounding Ethereum and other major cap altcoins like Ripple, have a powerful spillover effect on the rest of the market. These alts can even drag Bitcoin down with them during exceptionally bearish movements that impact the entire crypto market.

Altcoin sentiment has been at an extreme low, with most believing that altcoin holders have been capitulating and dumping their altcoins at a massive loss in order to recoup any remaining value before the asset falls further.

And while signs a bottom is approaching cannot be denied, most are looking toward either a double bottom or some other sort of event that wipes out the altcoin space entirely. The same crypto analyst who believes another 22% drop in Ethereum is due, also believes that “real alt capitulation” hasn’t yet begun, but will in just a matter of two more weeks from now.

What that entails, the trader doesn’t say, however, the Ethereum chart showing another 20% fall provides clues. Most altcoins are closely correlated – when one falls so do others. This means that if Ethereum drops another 20%, so could the rest of alts, which will bring the total altcoin market cap closer to a double bottom, and bring crypto investors the real capitulation that the analyst warns of.

I'm Tony Spilotro. Behind the pseudonym, I'm a global remote work leader with a decade of award-winning content experience and excellence. 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.
