A popular crypto strategist says he’s keeping a close watch on one Ethereum-based altcoin that he says is going through a parabolic rally.
Pseudonymous crypto analyst Altcoin Sherpa warns his 174,000 Twitter followers that shorting Kyber Network (KNC) while it is trading close to record highs is not a good idea for now.

The last coin on Altcoin Sherpa’s radar is NFT marketplace LooksRare (LOOKS). According to the analyst, LOOKS is at risk of a 16% pullback now that it is trading below support at $1.68.
“LOOKS: If this area…
