Also, it’s critical to note that data visualization seen from Santiment Research Company, showed the bullish divergence forming on this blue hot crypto. It said:
- “Ethereum NVT model, which measures the health of the asset’s token circulation compared to current market cap, is indicating that we’re projected for a 6th straight month of bullish divergence.
- Beginning its first bullish month of 2020 on Santiment’s model at $134 on March, 7 of the past 8 months have shown a bullish divergence.
- This has predictably resulted in the price propelling itself +187% since.”
