eteran chartist Peter Brandt, who entered commodity trading business in the 1970s, believes that Ethereum (ETH) is already in a new bear market, according to a tweet that he posted on Saturday.
One of the most influential people on crypto Twitter describes the second-largest blockchain as “overly complicated,” “expensive” and “awkward.”
He added that the cryptocurrency’s underperformance against Solana (SOL), the token behind one of the leading “Ethereum killers,” was “completely warranted.”
The SOL token is in sixth place by market capitalization after seeing monstrous growth in 2021, but it still has a lot of catching up to do in order to flippen Ethereum.
The Ethereum community bristled at Brandt’s bearish analysis, with some of its members claiming that the trader’s tweets could be used as a contrarian indicator.
Brandt took the criticism on the chin, joking that it’s time to buy more when he says something bearish (and vice versa).
At the same time, he also defended his bearish call on Cardano in response to a disgruntled follower.
Earlier this week, the trader also recently tried to warn Bitcoin dip-buyers against catching a falling knife amid the flagship cryptocurrency’s ongoing plunge.
