Co-founder of Mechanism Capital: The impact of Ethereum ETF on the market is not as significant as that of Bitcoin ETF, and the upward potential for ETH is limited
ChainCatcher news, Andrew Kang, co-founder and partner of the crypto venture capital firm Mechanism Capital, stated on social media that unless Ethereum develops a convincing way to improve its economic situation, the price of Ethereum will not gain much upward space from the approval of a spot ETF.He expects the capital flow from the Ethereum spot ETF to be lower than the market's general expectations, as the approval of the ETF was unexpected and the issuers did not have much time to persuade large holders to convert their ETH into the ETF. On the other hand, the appeal for holders to convert ETH is relatively low, as they would need to forgo the yields from staking or using ETH as collateral in DeFi.Additionally, Andrew Kang anticipates that ETH/BTC will continue to trend downward, with the ratio expected to be between 0.035 and 0.06 over the next year. Although the sample size is small, the market has indeed seen ETH/BTC set lower highs in each cycle, so this should not be surprising.
