Martinez also shared past performances from this “Buy Zone,” which included gains of +150%, +5,390%, +130%, +280%, and +250%.

Discussions around market bottoms for blue-chip coins, such as Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) and Ethereum, have intensified as a prolonged bear market tests the patience of the bulls. Earlier this week, Tom Lee, Chair of ETH-hoarding company Bitmine Immersion Technologies Inc.

Price Action: At the time of writing, ETH was exchanging hands at $2,164.01, up 0.05% in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
