Old-school commodity trader Peter L. Brandt, who has been in the business since the mid-1970s, has been known to stir the crypto community with his bold predictions. Having traded commodities like copper, silver, and sugar, Brandt brings a unique perspective to the world of crypto.

自1970年代中期以来一直从事该业务的老式商品交易商彼得·布兰特（Peter L.布兰特（Brandt）在铜，银和糖等商品上进行了交易，为加密世界带来了独特的视角。

Recently, Brandt took to Twitter to share his predictions for Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH), which saw a 2022 low of $800.

最近，布兰特（Brandt）上了Twitter分享了他对以太坊（Crypto：ETH）的预测，该预测的2022年低点为800美元。

What Happened: After a year that saw the second-largest cryptocurrency slide by a massive 46%, Brandt’s prediction is no small feat. Since Wednesday, when ETH crashed by 4%, following Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) down after the Fed Reserve’s announcement about maintaining the current interest rates, it has recovered by 3.56% and is changing hands at $1,601. When Brandt published his chart, ETH traded at $1,587 per coin.

发生了什么：一年后，勃兰特的预测并不小。自周三，当ETH坠毁4％以来，在美联储储备宣布维持当前利率的公告后，比特币（加密货币：BTC）下降了，它已恢复了3.56％，并以1,601美元的价格易手。当布兰特出版他的图表时，ETH的交易价格为每枚硬币1,587美元。

Earlier this week, Brandt slammed Ethereum as “worthless junk.”

本周早些时候，勃兰特将以太坊猛烈抨击为“毫无价值的垃圾”。

More importantly, Brandt’s chart clearly demonstrates the way he expects Ethereum’s price trajectory to go from the current trading point. The chart shows a descending triangle pattern, which usually predicts further and deeper price declines.

更重要的是，布兰特的图表清楚地表明了他期望以太坊的价格轨迹从当前交易点开始的方式。该图显示了一个下降的三角形模式，通常可以预测更深层次的价格下降。

Top traders typically use triangles to predict the continuation of the prevailing trend. In this case, the triangle pattern is forming after a bearish trend, which began in early 2022.

顶级交易者通常使用三角形来预测现行趋势的延续。在这种情况下，三角形模式在看跌趋势之后始于2022年初。

The apex of the triangle coincides with the 2022 low of around $800. From there, the chart predicts a steeper decline, suggesting that the triangle is likely to break down.

三角形的最高点与2022年低约800美元相吻合。从那里开始，该图表预测了急剧下降，表明三角形可能会崩溃。

The lower boundary of the triangle is defined by a series of lower highs, while the upper boundary is formed by a descending trendline.

三角形的下边界由一系列下部高点定义，而上边界是由下降趋势线形成的。

The apex of the triangle is typically reached when the two boundaries converge. In this case, it appears to be forming at the 2022 low of around $800.

当两个边界收敛时，通常达到三角形的顶点。在这种情况下，它似乎以2022年的低价为800美元。

After the apex is reached, the triangle is expected to break down in the direction of the prevailing trend. Since the triangle is forming after a bearish trend, it is likely to break down to the downside.

达到顶点后，预计三角形将朝着盛行趋势的方向分解。由于三角形在看跌趋势之后形成，因此它很可能会分解为缺点。

This move will carry the price toward the lower boundary of the triangle, which is currently around $400. However, it is also possible for the triangle to break out to the upside, which would carry the price higher.

此举将把价格带到三角形的下边界，目前约为400美元。但是，三角形也有可能突破上涨空间，这将使价格更高。

The direction of the breakout will depend on a variety of factors, including the strength of the sellers and buyers, as well as the overall market conditions.

突破的方向将取决于各种因素，包括卖方和买家的实力以及整体市场条件。

What Next: It will be interesting to observe whether Brandt’s prediction comes true, considering his past predictions have gained attention in the crypto community.

接下来：考虑到他过去的预测在加密社区引起了人们的关注，观察布兰特的预测是否实现会很有趣。

Earlier this year, Brandt made headlines when he said that he was short copper and had no interest in discussing it further.

今年早些时候，布兰特说自己是短铜，并且对进一步讨论没有兴趣，他成为头条新闻。

Brandt’s prediction comes amid heightened interest in the crypto market, particularly with the recent approval of seven spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These ETFs, tracking various cryptocurrencies, are set to launch on August 8.

勃兰特的预测是在加密市场的兴趣提高，尤其是在美国证券交易委员会最近批准了七个现货交易所资金（ETF）的情况下。这些ETF跟踪各种加密货币将于8月8日推出。

Among these ETFs, four will follow the price of Bitcoin, while two will track Ether. One ETF will be linked to a basket of cryptocurrencies.

在这些ETF中，四个将遵循比特币的价格，而两个将跟踪以太币。一个ETF将与一篮子加密货币联系起来。

The famous NBA player Scottie Pippen predicted the start of the biggest altcoin season this Sunday. He stated that historically, such a bull run has always begun approximately 340 days after a Bitcoin halving.

著名的NBA球员Scottie Pippen预测了本周日最大的Altcoin赛季的开始。他说，从历史上看，这种公牛奔跑在比特币减半后大约开始了340天。

The most recent halving took place last year on April 20. That year, the SEC also approved on spot ETFs based on Bitcoin and Ethereum. All along, Bitcoin ETFs have been showing much higher inflows and smaller outflows than Ethereum ETFs.

最近的减半发生在去年4月20日。那一年，SEC还根据比特币和以太坊批准了ETF。一直以来，比特币ETF的流入量比以太坊ETF更高。

Scottie Pippen stated that he was bullish on ETH long-term since he is building a project on this network. It is focused on AI, gaming and tokenization of real-world assets (RWA).

斯科蒂·皮蓬（Scottie Pippen）表示，自从他在这个网络上建立一个项目以来，他长期以来就看好ETH。它的重点是现实资产（RWA）的AI，游戏和令牌化。

Tron founder and owner of two crypto exchanges, Poloniex and Huobi, Justin Sun, also tweeted that despite the recent poor performance, Tron does not intend to sell its Ethereum holdings. What they plan is to seek more opportunities to cooperate with Ethereum developers and work to improve the crypto space together.

Tron的创始人兼两个加密交易所的所有者Poloniex和Huobi，Justin Sun也发推文说，尽管最近表现不佳，但Tron并不打算出售其以太坊控股。他们打算寻求更多机会与以太坊开发人员合作，并共同改善加密空间。
