Ethereum Going to $2K Says Peter Schiff, Altcoins Bleed Amid US Recession Fears

The US recessionary fears have sent jitters across the asset classes with Bitcoin and the broader crypto market seeing major drops. The Ethereum price has crashed 6% going under $3,000, the level last seen in early July. Over the last week, the ETH price has tanked by more than 8.5% with analysts expecting further crash ahead.,The spot Ethereum ETFs have seen major outflows in the last two weeks since launch. Popular economist Peter Schiff highlighted this declining performance of Ethereum ETFs, dropping more than 15% in two weeks. As the ETH price stayed under $3,000, Peter Schiff predicted that it could crash further all the way to $2K.,On Friday, the spot Ether ETF saw net outflows of $54.3 million, per the data from Farside Investors. Grayscale’s ETH saw $61.4 million in outflows while Fidelity FETH saw $6 million in inflows. The rest of all other Ether ETFs in the US saw zero inflows yesterday.,Gold buff Peter Schiff took this opportunity to say that a US recession would be bullish for Gold. He explained that a recession could lead to much larger federal budget deficits, a weaker dollar, collapsing real interest rates, and much higher inflation.
