The well-known crypto trader and the CEO of Eight Global, Michael van de Poppe, took to Twitter yesterday to share his thoughts about the current altcoin market capitalization.

According to van de Poppe, the altcoin market cap “doesn’t look too bad at this point.” He also added that he believes that if the altcoin market cap cracks $500 billion, it could continue moving up toward $600 billion or even $680 billion.

The crypto market tracking website CoinMarketCap indicates that Bitcoin’s dominance currently stands at 38.74%, which is a 0.21% increase over the last 24 hours. The total crypto market cap currently stands at around $841.16 billion while the crypto market leader’s market cap is standing at $325,535,298,076.

The altcoin leader, Ethereum (ETH), is currently trading at $1,247.30 following a 2.27% drop over the last 24 hours.

ETH’s price is hanging by the thread as it slipped below the daily 9 and 20 EMA lines today. These lines have provided the altcoin leader with strong support over the last 2 weeks. However, if the price of ETH closes below these levels by the end of today’s trading session, then ETH’s price is at risk of dropping down to the next support level at around $1,200.

The daily RSI indicator suggests that there will be a bearish move over the coming 24-48 hours, as the daily RSI line has just crossed below the daily RSI SMA line.
