Top 3 Price Prediction Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple: Ready for a bull run in the cryptomarket?
|- Ethereum shows a pattern comparable to the one seen in 2017 prior to the bullish outburst.
- Bitcoin is lagging behind but could catch up in the next sessions.
- Ripple follows the market and leaves behind the passivity of previous months.
Ethereum offers an impressive demonstration of strength. Unassisted by any other component of the Top 3, Ether is sustaining an upward trend that seemed to have entered a temporary pause.
Today, early in the Asian session, the relative high of the ETH/USD pair has been pulverized, and this move has also had a significant impact on its valuation against King Bitcoin. The ETH/BTC pair is currently trading at 0.0391, the same level seen in February 2019 before the bull run.
It's vital to keep in mind that all the bullish explosions in the crypto market have been led by Ethereum in its early stages and crowned by Bitcoin in the later stages. If the pattern seen in 2017 repeats itself, we could be on the verge of a vast bullish stampede.
The technical projection indicates that Bitcoin may move higher in the next few hours, perhaps after Ethereum reaches key resistance levels. Bitcoin needs to make up some ground and could take advantage of the gap opened by Ether to attempt an assault on the $12350 price level and from there to $14000.
The dominance charts clearly show the substantial increase in market share of Ethereum, which is currently at levels not seen since August 2018.
As far as Bitcoin is concerned, it continues to lose market share, although the end of the fall in the base of the current bearish channel is already in sight. The lower limit of this figure is at the 58.5 level of Bitcoin dominance, from the 69 dominance level it was at the beginning of May.
