$ETH is in an interesting position. If this consolidates, the most likely reason for that is that #Bitcoin continues to run higher. Scenarios for me: 1⃣ - #Bitcoin breaks up and rallies towards $68,000 or even $73,000. We'll most likely see $ETH vs. $BTC correct back down, and I'm not expecting a deep correction, just 4-5% to be keeping the USD value relatively flat. In that scenario, I'm interested in buying this dip around 0.0280. 2⃣ - #Bitcoin drops down to $60,500-61,000. In that case I expect to see these pairs to remain flat and not do much. I would expect to see 0.03050 to be tested and swept, potentially even 0.0320 as $ETH has been acting significantly stronger than Bitcoin recently. Either way, the general thesis for me is that I expect Bitcoin to trend higher and that would mean that liquidity gets sucked out of the rest due to FOMO. Once #Bitcoin consolidates --> money flows back into those assets.View original on X ↗
