Is Ethereum's Throne Shaking? Master Analyst Peter Brandt Claims This Popular Altcoin Will Overtake ETH!

The cryptocurrency market has shown signs of recovery recently, with Bitcoin surging past $93,000 yesterday. This upward trend boosted altcoins as well, including Ethereum (ETH), which climbed above $1,800. Over the past 24 hours, ETH experienced a 13.5% increase, XRP rose 7.2%, Dogecoin (DOGE) jumped 13%, and Solana (SOL) saw a 7% gain, adding $150 to its value.

Veteran analyst Peter Brandt, with over 50 years of experience, expressed bullish sentiment towards SOL, suggesting it could outperform Ethereum. He cited the formation of a "cup and handle" pattern on the SOL/ETH chart – a bullish technical indicator often preceding a price breakout. Brandt predicted that SOL could potentially double its value against ETH, highlighting SOL's increasing volume and technical strength, while characterizing ETH as "invalid."

Solana's rise is also attracting institutional interest. Ark Invest, the firm led by Bitcoin advocate Cathie Wood, made its first direct investment in SOL. Meanwhile, Galaxy Digital reportedly sold its Ethereum holdings to purchase Solana from Binance.

This "cup and handle" pattern is still unfolding. SOL has significant potential for gains compared to its "invalid" counterpart, ETH. — Peter Brandt (@PeterLBrandt) April 22, 2025
