Popular crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen is warning that Ethereum (ETH) could suddenly turn bearish in the last three months of the year.
Cowen tells his 861,500 followers on the social media platform X that ETH may be repeating a similar 2016 pattern on the monthly timeframe that could have it seeing red in the fourth quarter.
However, he says if ETH follows a similar pattern, it may put up big gains in the first half (H1) of next year.

Ethereum is trading for $2,375 at time of writing, down 3.3% in the last 24 hours.

Lastly, the analyst shares a chart of the logarithmic regression band of crypto’s market cap, which is designed to track the fair value of an asset class using “non-bubble data.” He says that based on historical precedence the crypto market may not soar past fair value into the overvalued area until early next year.
“Last cycle, we went durably overvalued by the end of the halving…
