Ahead of the much-anticipated Benzinga’s Future of Digital Assets conference, renowned crypto analyst Nicholas Merten has shared his insights on the altcoin market’s trajectory, suggesting a possible downturn, indicating that altcoins might be heading towards their fourth lower high since May.
In a YouTube video this week, Merten observed, “Altcoins have marked a fourth lower high since May. We might see a dip back into the $150 billion range by October, translating to a $60 billion decline. This could mean a further 25% correction, even after the recent altcoin setbacks.”
He also shed light on Ethereum‘s ETH/USD price trends, pointing out multiple unsuccessful attempts to breach the $2,000 mark. “ETH has faced three failed breakouts at the $2,000 level. This ascending triangle pattern indicates a need for buyers to step in. If not, we might witness a year-long bullish pattern falter due to lack of bullish momentum.”

While many are optimistic about Ethereum’s upcoming developments like ETH 2 and the Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP)-1559, Merten expressed reservations. He stated, “Despite the positive buzz around ETH 2 and EIP-1559, the market hasn’t responded as expected. The focus has been largely on the monetary policy of crypto, overlooking the fundamental aspect: the balance between eager buyers and sellers.”
Concluding his analysis, Merten issued a cautionary note for the crypto enthusiasts, hinting at a potential market downturn. “The current market indicators suggest a possible decline. I’m considering shorting, given the red flags our indicators are showing.”
