The past few days and weeks have seen Ethereum’s decentralized finance ecosystem erupt higher.<\/p>\n

Some are skeptical that the gains seen in DeFi will spill over to ETH. Cryptocurrency investor and commentator Humboldt Capital, for instance, wrote<\/a> on June 14th:<\/p>\n

That’s to say, they believe that just because DeFi sees adoption doesn’t mean ETH will rally.<\/p>\n

But, a prominent fund manager begs to differ.<\/p>\n

Ethereum Could Soon Rally Hard Due to DeFi: Blocktown Capital Partner<\/strong><\/h2>\n

John Todaro, part of the management team at BlockTown Capital and the head of research at TradeBlock, said<\/a> that Ethereum will eventually<\/em> benefit from DeFi platforms “hitting escape velocity.”<\/p>\n

This has been indirectly echoed by Michael Novogratz, CEO of Galaxy Digital ad a former Goldman Sachs partner. He said<\/a> at a digital conference earlier this year:<\/p>\n

“One of the things for the Ethereum narrative is valuing the network kind of like we do with Facebook \u2014 the more network effects you get, [the better]. Like getting Tether to migrate its coins to Ethereum brings people using that to the network.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A Bearish Technical Outlook<\/strong>n<\/h2>\n

Although Ethereum does have the fundamental wind of DeFi hitting its sails, the technical outlook for the leading altcoin is currently bearish.<\/p>\n

Referencing the chart below, a trader suggested<\/a> that Ethereum is currently following a fractal from 2018. The fractal suggests that ETH’s recent price action looks similar to that seen during the drop from the all-time highs in 2018.<\/p>\n

The analysis predicts that Ethereum will plunge towards $150 in August\/September, marking a 35% drop from current prices.<\/p>\n

This is pertinent to price action as because the last time Glassnode observed an 80% of the asset’s supply in profit, prices dropped from $290 to $88 in the span of a handful of weeks. And the time before that, ETH dropped from the 2019 highs above $350 to the December lows around $120.<\/p>\n
