We’re additionally seeing larger lows, so in case you’re a bull, there’s proof to help your thesis, in case you’re a bear, there’s proof to help your thesis.
Now I need to be clear, I’m not long-term bearish on Ethereum, I do suppose it’s a legitimate asset, however I’ll say that within the quick to medium time period, I nonetheless stay bearish on it. These short-term pumps that we get should not going to alter my view. No less than present a better excessive for a change, after which we will discuss.”
