During the crypto market crash in January, the price of Ethereum (ETH) fell below the $2,200 price point. It was January 24 when the ETH price fell to its lowest point since July 2021. Pantera Capital’s Joey Krug believes $2,200 ETH was likely the bottom.
Joey Krug Says $2200 Was ETH Bottom?
In a recently published blog from Pantera Capital, Dan Morehead, CEO, and Joey Krug, Co-CIO shared some helpful insights into market behavior.
He said: “Our macro view here is that crypto was definitely hit by a lot of news about the rate hikes the Fed is planning. As of today, the market’s pricing is in about five rate hikes — and I think a lot of that is overstated in crypto”.
Ethereum (ETH) went to a low of about $2,200 or so, and if you look at the 10-year treasury, it peaked at about 1.9% and has more or less leveled off since then, he added.
“Our view is that in the coming weeks it will decouple and crypto will trade independently again. It’s my personal opinion that $2,200 ETH was probably the bottom,” Joey Krug said
