Market Dynamics and Outlook
Estimated inflows of $4 billion to ETH and approximately $3 billion of sell-side pressure in BTC (due to Mt. Gox releases) favor ETH/BTC strength over the summer. While ETH/BTC has been on a linear downtrend for the past two years, the imminent positive catalyst for ETH and corresponding negative catalyst for BTC suggest a potential breakout.
Periods of ETH outperformance tend to be short-lived but very strong. In 2021, ETH's significant outperformance against BTC occurred in a seven-week period from late March to mid-May. Given the current setup, ETH is positioned for summer strength. With the ETH/BTC ratio at 0.054, taking a long position on ETH versus BTC is considered advantageous.
