The Return of Il Capo of Crypto: A Fresh Perspective
Renowned crypto analyst Il Capo of Crypto has made a comeback on the social media platform X after a hiatus of over two months. His return coincides with a significant market correction observed since the beginning of October. Known for his sometimes controversial and contrarian predictions, Capo has offered new insights on Bitcoin and Ethereum, revealing a bearish outlook for these leading cryptocurrencies in the short term.
Exploring the Bearish Outlook
Capo’s reputation for making bold predictions is well-known in the crypto community. His recent return to the scene has sparked interest as he shares his bearish views on both Bitcoin and Ethereum. Despite the general anticipation of an altseason, Capo suggests that Ethereum could drop to as low as $1,800 before experiencing a meaningful recovery.
ETH’s Predicted Decline
Ethereum has already seen a 10% decline over the past week, currently trading at approximately $2,330. However, Capo predicts that ETH might experience further decline, potentially falling into the $1,800 to $2,000 range. This would signify a possible 23% dip from its current price before any significant bounce back occurs. Capo remains optimistic about the altcoin season eventually arriving.

Capo’s analysis consistently highlights the potential dominance of altcoins. Throughout 2024, he has emphasized that altcoins, particularly Ethereum, could outperform Bitcoin as investors shift profits generated from BTC into smaller assets. Despite these predictions, the anticipated altcoin season has not yet materialized, with Bitcoin maintaining its stronghold in the crypto investment landscape.
Is It Time to Go Long on Ethereum?
Crypto Capo’s predictions often come with a sense of lore, with some investors joking that the market tends to move contrary to his forecasts. This sentiment dates back to his prediction of Bitcoin falling to $12,000 last year, which ultimately did not occur. Currently, Capo’s bearish prediction for Ethereum and Bitcoin amidst October’s bullish sentiment, often referred to as “Uptober,” raises questions among investors about the validity of his forecast.

The ultimate outcome of Capo’s analysis remains uncertain. However, given the current influx of investments and the crypto market’s rally in October, Ethereum might rebound instead of experiencing the significant drop Capo predicts. Many savvy investors see the current decline as an opportunity to “go long” and accumulate more Ethereum in anticipation of future gains. This sentiment is reflected in the US Spot Ethereum ETFs, which saw $14.45 million in inflows despite recent price corrections.
Long-Term Outlook for Ethereum
It’s crucial to note that while Capo’s analysis suggests a potential decline, he remains bullish on Ethereum in the long term. This perspective aligns with the broader market sentiment, where many traders and investors are positioning themselves for potential gains.
