He points to Bitcoin's moving averages acting as resistance rather than support, and consistent outflows from Bitcoin ETFs as contributing factors.
Merton also comments on the struggles of Ethereum and altcoins, observing that they are experiencing a slowdown in trading volumes and momentum. He suggests that the meme coin craze may be over, and investors will now be looking for more fundamental projects with tangible use cases.
Shifting his focus to the broader market, Merton highlights the divergence between the performance of the cryptocurrency market and the traditional stock market, particularly the tech-heavy Nasdaq. He notes that the Bitcoin-to-Nasdaq ratio has been stagnant for the past three years, indicating that Bitcoin's returns are diminishing compared to the Nasdaq's performance.
Overall, Merton presents a realistic and cautious perspective, believing the cryptocurrency market, led by Bitcoin, faces significant headwinds that could lead to a substantial price decline.
