A widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader remains optimistic about a red-hot competitor to Ethereum (ETH).
The analyst who goes by the pseudonym Bluntz tells his 248,700 followers on social media platform X that Solana (SOL) has much greater upside potential after rising 10-fold since September.
“The vertical accumulation of the SOL is over. The locks are open and the canal broken. Historic highs in sight.”

Looking at the trader’s chart, he suggests that Solana’s bullish momentum is strengthening after a bullish breakout from an ascending channel.
Solana trades for $179.56 at the time of writing, up more than 5% in the last 24 hours. Solana hit an all-time high of $259.96 in November 2021.
The trader also says that another big reason to remain bullish on Solana is that it is outperforming against both Bitcoin (SOL/BTC) and Ethereum (SOL/ETH).
“SOL/BTC and SOL/ETH are already reaching new highs. There is no second best.

Next, the trader uses Elliott Wave Theory to predict that Bitcoin will head towards $80,000 after the recent drop to the mid-$60,000 level.
Elliot Wave Theory states that the main trend in the price of an asset moves in a five-wave pattern while a correction occurs in a three-wave ABC pattern.
“Nice divs on BTC here in a retest ABC of the previous all-time high with five waves accounted for inside the C. Open Interest destroyed and funding flat and back to neutral. send it.”

Looking at the trader’s one-hour chart, it suggests that Bitcoin has completed a corrective ABC wave and is about to begin a five-wave upward move.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading for $68,262, down 3.7% over the past 24 hours.
Finally, the trader claims that the native layer 1 blockchain token Sei (SEI) is on the verge of exploding in a five-wave pattern until it reaches $1.60.
“The SEI has been a slow process this week, but in my opinion it finally seems ready. In my opinion, the next impulse is about to begin.
