A crypto strategist closely followed for well-timed altcoin predictions thinks one Ethereum (ETH) challenger is ripe to ignite big upside bursts.
Pseudonymous analyst Bluntz tells his 275,500 followers on the social media platform X that Near (NEAR) has taken out the diagonal resistance of a falling wedge pattern on the three-day chart.
A falling wedge structure is viewed as a bullish reversal signal as it suggests that buyers are stepping in to decrease the rate of an asset’s price decline.
Says Bluntz,
“Three-day candle about to close and NEAR has a beautiful trend break now.”
Zooming in, Bluntz says NEAR appears to be following in the footsteps of fellow layer-1 protocol Sui (SUI), an altcoin that has printed gains of about 120% this month.
“NEAR finally coming in hot with a channel breakout.
In environments like these, they usually indicate a huge breakout move is underway.”
At time of writing, NEAR is worth $5.38, up over 5% in the past day.
The trader is also bullish on the Solana (SOL)-based memecoin dogwifhat (WIF). The analyst shares a chart suggesting that WIF has broken above a multi-month resistance level.
“Strap in, are you ready for round 2?”
At time of writing, WIF is trading for $2.01, well above its diagonal resistance.
