Closely followed crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen is weighing in on Ethereum (ETH) and its chances of flipping Bitcoin’s (BTC) market cap in the future.
In a new strategy session, Cowen tells his 785,000 YouTube subscribers that while he’s not bearish on ETH in the long run, he envisions the top altcoin’s price going down in the near future.
According to Cowen, the ETH/BTC pair has been both putting in higher lows as well as lower highs, leaving some investors with questions.

These short-term pumps that we get are not going to change my view. At least show a higher high for a change, and then we can talk.”
Bitcoin is trading for $28,044 at time of writing, a fractional dip on the day, while ETH is valued at…
