Are more Corrections Incoming for BTC and ETH?
A well-known expert has issued a warning to cryptocurrency investors, claiming that Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH) are on the verge of launching significant corrective moves before the next bull cycle can begin.
Justin Bennett, a top crypto strategist, said that he’s keeping a careful eye on the TOTAL chart, which shows the total market capitalization of all digital assets.
“[The] anticipated cycle low for TOTAL (total crypto market cap) is $760 million. Lower if we don’t get one last relief rally. Most think the current pullback leads to the next cycle low. I think we see one last relief rally before it happens. BTC $52K, ETH $4K before [correction].”
According to Bennett, The $TOTAL chart is poised for one more rally this cycle before shattering its diagonal support and losing more than half of its value. As per analyst, the TOTAL market cap will be $760 million by May 2023, implying a 55 percent drop from the current $1.72 trillion prices of all crypto assets.
During the corrective period, the crypto expert believes Bitcoin and Ethereum will return to their 2017 highs. He estimates that the cycle lows for BTC and ETH will be around $18k-$20k and $1k-$1.4k, respectively.
Bennett anticipates the crypto markets will go through a long consolidation phase after bottoming out next year when it comes to the timing of the next bull cycle.
