Is Ethereum Following A Deadly Nasdaq Dot Com Fractal?

Share This Post

Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, remains trading at roughly a third of its all-time high, but has recovered 78% from lows. 

However, the worst might be yet to come for the top altcoin if it continues to follow a shockingly similar fractal from dot com era Nasdaq charts.

Ethereum 2023 Versus The 2000 Nasdaq Dot Com Post-Bubble Collapse

Cryptocurrency bubbles have in the past been compared to Tulip Mania and the Dot Com bubble, but a more direct comparison between Ethereum now and Nasdaq from 2000 has been discovered by crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen.

The uncanny comparison shows a harsh rejection at the 50-week moving average indicated in green. What makes this comparison so shocking are the price levels at which key pivot points took place.

For example, Ethererum topped out at roughly $4,800 per coin, while the Nasdaq peaked at nearly 4800. Ether is trading at approximately $1,600 per ETH near the 50-week moving average, and the Nasdaq’s rejection took place at around the 1600 level.

If ETHUSD continues to follow this path from the dot com bubble NDX chart, the ultimate bottom would form at around $790 per token.

Then & Now (Plus A Look Ahead): Cryptocurrencies Versus Tech Stocks

Cowen, the CEO of Into The Cryptoverse and engineering PhD, admits that he “cherry picked” the moving average in the chart due to the eerie similarities. But that doesn’t discredit the possible scenario.

Turning on the 200-week moving average, however, provides an immediately different picture. The two moving averages typically come in a pair, providing signals when they turn or crossover.

Also of note is a “death cross” on the Nasdaq that doesn’t appear on ETHUSD. This doesn’t mean Ethereum is in the clear, but there are definitely differences from then versus now.

A further plunge to sub-$800 would spell an additional 50% decline against the dollar. Holding here would invalidate the fractal.

Despite this possibly bearish out come for Ether, it is important to look ahead in the Nasdaq. In the years to come, the NDX reached over 16,000. If Ethereum followed the fractal and price levels perfectly, each coin would eventually trade above $16,000.

Comparisons between cryptocurrencies and the dot com bubble have come up in the past, but none with this much accuracy and precision.
