Bitcoin May Be Strong, But Ethereum Offers Greater ROI, Says Analyst
A well-known crypto analyst, known as CredibleCrypto, has shared insights on the current state of Bitcoin and Ethereum, pointing to encouraging market signals for BTC while suggesting ETH may offer greater upside potential.
Bitcoin’s price movement has been relatively stagnant for the past six weeks, but according to the analyst, this consolidation phase is showing “very healthy signs.”
Key indicators include a 20% decline in open interest, the absorption of $10 billion in spot selling, a stable funding rate, and a shift where the spot market premium has overtaken perpetual contract premiums.
These trends suggest reduced leverage risks and increasing demand from long-term investors rather than short-term speculators.

Bitcoin Investors Are Staying Put – Why Altcoins May Struggle This CycleDespite the positive market structure, CredibleCrypto believes Bitcoin’s potential for major gains is limited compared to altcoins. He estimates BTC could see a maximum increase of 2x to 2.5x from current levels in this cycle.
However, he argues that many altcoins, particularly those that haven’t yet experienced significant rallies, could outperform BTC in the coming months.
Among altcoins, Ethereum stands out as the strongest contender, with the analyst referring to it as the “Bitcoin of altcoins” and a relatively safe bet. If BTC surpasses $150,000 this cycle, he predicts ETH could surge past $10,000—a gain of at least 207% from its current price.
