Why is $ETH & crypto not performing?
It's very simple:
half of the folks left for AI stocks chasing quick returns
the other half is parking cash in oil waiting for the supply crunch taking the market down
apparently no one is long crypto anymore. this can flip back quickly
@suppression___ no, the April sell off felt way worse. It was mostly $ETH only to the extremes we have seen. this time $ETH keeps up better with the market. There is a lot of growth, crypto, long duration weakness overall. So nothing particularly wrong with $ETH
$ETH will go up when activity on Ethereum will further increase or global liquidity expands.
Simple as that. In the mean time focus on other aspects of life.
A frontier technology asset that is getting adopted is way more powerful than a store of value asset
$BTC maxis will eventually learn that as $ETH starts outperforming and the ratio won't ever look back
how about $ETH - the triple point asset - eventually sends as the early money capitulates on it while scalability and institutional adoption are getting achieved
Remember: There are people that rotated out of crypto into data center & semiconductor stocks making a killing there. These stocks are getting expensive while crypto is depressed providing the perfect set up for a rotation back. When $ETH breaks 2450$ this market goes parabolic.
Semis like $AMD & $INTC are already valued richly & due to rapidly decreasing inference costs can only capture a part of the emerging AI economy while Ethereum get's a chance at capturing the full scale of the bot economy.
$ETH is the ultimate AI bet.
The AI trade has been sucking out speculative capital from crypto & $ETH
this is capital that will eventually return & will chase fewer $ETH available on exchanges
