Senior technical analyst Peter Brandt, who got into the commodity trading business in the 1970s, said in a tweet on Saturday that the leading altcoin Ethereum (ETH) is in a new bear market. Brandt, who is also known for his predictions of hits in Bitcoin (BTC), describes the second largest blockchain as “overly complex”, “expensive” and “weird”. The analyst adds that the underperformance of the leading altcoin against Solana (SOL) is “fully warranted”.
Peter Brandt warns altcoin investors
Solana (SOL) hit the fifth position by market cap after posting tremendous growth in 2021, but to surpass Ethereum He still has a lot to do. The Ethereum community was outraged by Brandt’s bearish analysis, and some followers claimed that Brandt’s tweets could be used as a counter-indicator. Brandt also hinted that the situation could be an opportunity, noting that when you wait for a bear (or vice versa) it may be time to buy more. He also defended his call for Cardano to decline in response to a disgruntled follower. Earlier this week, the trader also tried to warn recent Bitcoin dip buyers against catching a falling knife amid the continued decline of the leading cryptocurrency.
Ethereum $ETH is in a bear trend because it is an overly complicated/expensive/awkward platform to the NFT/specialty token universe/metaverse. In fact, $ETH's bear trend against $SOL is completely warranted
