Has Ethereum Bottomed?

1000x Podcast

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. ETH: Trade the Chart, Doubt the Core. Ethereum’s technicals may offer a trading setup, but deep-seated skepticism about its fundamental delivery persists.
  2. Worldcoin Warning: The massive FDV and emission schedule for Worldcoin scream "sell pressure," making it a risky long-term hold despite any hype.
  3. Invest with Edge: Focus on revenue-generating altcoins and areas you understand; it's okay to miss out on trades where you lack a clear advantage.
