Looking at the ETH/BTC chart, the analyst hinted at a possible surge in buying. Additionally, he drew parallels with another altcoin’s price trajectory Litecoin.
LTC prices surged by 35% to hit a one-year high against Bitcoin (BTC) this week, signaling an upside momentum for the remainder of the ongoing monthly session. The analyst speculated that chances of LTC registering a new ATH were very likely, owing to the coin’s correlation with the premier altcoin Ethereum.
$LTC has been trend-following $ETH since mid-2020
And seeing that $ETH has recently rallied to new All Time Highs once again…
Chances are #LTC will follow with new All Time Highs of its own soon#Litecoin #Ethereum

Blockchain analytics firm, Glassnode noted a dramatic hike in the number of active Litecoin addresses since the beginning of 2021, indicating a rising demand for the crypto-silver.

The analyst also provided an argument for his hypothesis of LTC hitting ATHs. He stated that the asset had recently broken two important resistance levels – $226 and $305.
$LTC recently rallied to $360+
Which means #LTC has broken two very important resistance levels:
• $226
• $305
These are #Litecoin Four Year Cycle levels
Break the old All Time Highs and Candle 1 will rally to new unimaginable highshttps://t.co/BCRcr7B6GB pic.twitter.com/mZl1A9BOyK

Another analyst claimed:
“I think it’s realistic to say that Litecoin will reach above $1,000 eventually, maybe even close to $1,500.”
