If [$BTC]& [$ETH]rip here, and then everything else follows, we could be in for a mid-2019 repeat — going just high enough to get people to believe that maybe, just maybe, new ATHs are around the corner, before enduring a final wipeout (Q1 ‘24?) and putting in firm higher lows.— Chris Burniske (@cburniske) [November 2, 2023] A look at CoinMarketCap’s data showed that Bitcoin moved from around $4,000 to $10,000 within the period mentioned above.For ETH, it jumped from $113 and closed at around $268.While beating the ATH might sound like a challenging record to break, on-chain data showed that a hike could remain in place.
AMBCrypto obtained this inference from the Short Term Holder Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio.BTC and ETH sellers are fatigued At press time, Bitcoin’s [STH-MVRV](https://studio.glassnode.com/metrics?a=BTC&category=Long%2FShort%20Term&m=market.MvrvLess155) was 1.22.This metric measures the behavior of short-term investors whose demographic is less than 155 days.With the metric increasing over the last few months, Bitcoin may be able to maintain the increase it has seen lately over the next few months.Furthermore, AMBCrypto analyzed Ethereum’s Seller Exhaustion [Constant](https://studio.glassnode.com/metrics?a=ETH&category=Market%20Indicators&m=indicators.SellerExhaustionConstant), which also seemed to support the bullish thesis.Using the 30-day price volatility, the Seller Exhaustion Constant detects periods of possible high losses and the period when it could be a relatively good period to make gains.
At press time, the metric had left the danger zone (colored red) and was up to 0.025.This implies that ETH’s value has more room to increase in the short term than its [chance](https://ambcrypto.com/ethereum-why-only-patience-may-cut-it-for-eth-holders/) of a decrease.Additionally, another analyst who weighed in on the BTC/ETH price action was Altcoin Sherpa.
According to Sherpa, the value of ETH and BTC may drop for a while.However, he added that the month of November [remains](https://ambcrypto.com/can-bitcoin-maintain-its-bull-rally-in-november/) a good buying period for both coins.Is your portfolio green?

It’s looking more and more like the .048 area is going to get tagged.Expecting November to be a good buying period and then alts do really well in December/January.[#Ethereum] [pic.twitter.com/3qTaTAsskB] — Altcoin Sherpa (@AltcoinSherpa) [November 1, 2023] As it stands, both BTC and ETH could hit notable highs.However, making a new ATH is something that looks very difficult to achieve.At the same time, it should not be ruled out..
