Despite what is akin to a bull market with the Bitcoin price hitting multiple new all-time highs, the Ethereum price continues to hit major resistances in its campaign for new highs. The most recent is the resistance push at the $3,800, which perfectly aligns with the 4-year resistance line that has kept the leading altcoin by market cap from hitting new all-time highs. However, as Ethereum once again gears up for a retest, this time could be the chart that signals the breakout. Ethereum On The Verge Of Breakout Crypto analyst MMCrypto highlighted a possible breakout on the Ethereum price chart after the altcoin moved back toward a 4-year resistance trendline. This trendline had begun back in 2021 when the Ethereum price had hit its $4,800 all-time high, and since then, it has become the resistant trendline to beat for the ETH price to rally to new highs.

This has prevented a rally toward its $4,800 and made the $5,000 expected target push even farther away. But now, there could be another opportunity for Ethereum to turn the tide and break this resistance once and for all. Currently, the ETH price is still trending below $4,000, suggesting that the bears are still holding the resistance line. With the price trading below this resistance, MMCrypto points out that ETH has now been underperforming for four years. Given this, a large number of investors have lost money on their investments or haven’t seen a profit. The major target now is for the resistance to be broken. The crypto analyst explains that once this happens, then the Ethereum price could see a monumental pump from here. This pump, he explains, will be fueled by investors who have yet to realize any profit on their ETH holdings over the last four years. Related Reading: XRP Bullish Cross Playing Out Again: $9 Or $24 Next? With the expectation that the resistance trendline will be broken, the analyst urges investors to be patient. He points out that once the pump begins, those who were patient will be the ones to reap the profits of this ETH price action. Additionally, Ethereum will not be the only altcoin to benefit from a pump. Previous altcoin seasons have been sparked by movements in the Ethereum price, and if ETH is able to break toward a new all-time high, then the altcoin market is expected to follow suit. “The Ethereum Pump if & when it happens, will have a broad influence on the whole Crypto Space & take many Altcoins with it! Be ready, be prepared,” the analyst said in closing. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

On-chain data shows the Ethereum Exchange Reserve has plunged by more than 1 million ETH over the past month. What does this mean for the asset? Ethereum Exchange Reserve Has Seen A Sharp Decline In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has talked about the latest trend in the Exchange Reserve of Ethereum. The “Exchange Reserve” here refers to an on-chain indicator that keeps track of the total amount of ETH that’s sitting in the wallets associated with centralized exchanges. When the value of this metric goes down, it means the investors are withdrawing a net number of coins from these platforms. Generally, holders take their coins to self-custodial wallets when they plan to hold into the long term, so such a trend can be a bullish sign for the cryptocurrency. Related Reading: Bitcoin Remains Flat—And The SSR Ratio Might Explain Why On the other hand, the indicator’s value observing a decline suggests the inflows into exchanges outweigh the outflows. As one of the main reasons why investors use exchanges is for selling-related purposes, this kind of trend could be bearish for the asset’s price. Now, here is the chart shared by the analyst that shows how the Exchange Reserve for Ethereum has changed during the last few months: As displayed in the above graph, the Ethereum Exchange Reserve has seen a sharp drop recently, implying the investors have withdrawn a large amount of the asset. More specifically, the holder have taken out more than 1 million tokens of the cryptocurrency (worth about $3.8 billion at the current price) from the exchanges over the past month. Alongside this withdrawal spree, the ETH price has enjoyed a bull rally beyond the $3,800 level, indicating that the accumulation wave could be a driving factor behind it. The Exchange Reserve may be to keep an eye on now, as where it heads next could also end up having an effect on the asset. In some other news, the Ethereum Taker Sell Volume has just seen a sharp spike, as CryptoQuant community analyst Maartunn has pointed out in an X post. The Taker Sell Volume here refers to a metric that keeps track of the volume of sell orders (in USD) that are being filed by traders in Ethereum perpetual swaps. From the chart, it’s apparent that this metric has just observed two huge spikes. Across these, Taker Sell Volume has totaled at a whopping $2.68 billion.

Source: ETHUSD on Tradingview Meanwhile, Bitcoin ETPs faced $175 million in outflows, signaling a capital rotation from BTC to ETH and other altcoins. Analysts point to the passage of the Genius and Clarity Acts in the U.S. as key drivers of this trend, enhancing regulatory clarity for altcoin investment vehicles. BlackRock and SharpLink Boost Ethereum Exposure Institutional investors are doubling down. BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum ETF (ETHA) surged past $10 billion in AUM, becoming the third-fastest-growing ETF globally, while the firm raised its ETH holdings to $10.47 billion, with 100% of its crypto exposure now allocated to Ethereum. Simultaneously, Nasdaq-listed SharpLink Gaming purchased 77,210 ETH worth approximately $295 million, raising its total ETH treasury to over 438,000 ETH. This single purchase surpassed the network’s entire 30-day ETH issuance, underscoring the aggressive accumulation trend among institutions. Technical Indicators and Risks Remain Ethereum’s rally is further supported by bullish technical signals. A “golden cross” pattern emerged, and the MACD shows strong upward momentum, despite an overbought RSI reading of 82.07, a level often associated with potential price pullbacks. Related Reading: TRON Sees $1B USDT Mint: Liquidity Wave Incoming? Solana and XRP also saw inflows of $311 million and $189 million, respectively, while Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash experienced minor outflows.

Ethereum is steadily gaining ground as Bitcoin’s dominance continues to decline, signaling a quiet shift in market power. As ETH captures a larger share of the crypto landscape, key support and resistance levels are now in focus, pointing to potential for further upside. Ethereum Captures Larger Market Slice as BTC Weakens In a recent update on X, The Boss pointed out that Ethereum’s dominance in the crypto market is steadily increasing, aligning with previous expectations. As Bitcoin dominance begins to slip, Ethereum is gaining momentum, gradually capturing a larger share of the total market capitalization. This shift highlights the growing confidence in Ethereum’s relative strength compared to Bitcoin under current market conditions. Related Reading: Billionaire Mike Novogratz Says Ethereum Will Enter Price Discovery If It Takes Out This Level The Boss also emphasized the technical significance of a green line marked on the dominance chart, identifying it as a key support zone. As long as Ethereum dominance remains above this level, the bullish outlook remains intact. This support has previously acted as a reliable floor during past consolidations, and holding above it could provide the foundation for further gains in dominance. Attention is now turning to potential resistance zones, which The Boss illustrated using yellow lines derived from Fibonacci retracement levels. These levels represent likely areas where ETH dominance could face selling pressure or hesitation. However, surpassing them could indicate further strengthening of Ethereum’s position in the market. Overall, The Boss’s analysis suggests that the decline in Bitcoin dominance may be fueling Ethereum’s rise, and the technical setup remains favorable for ETH as long as it stays above the highlighted support. ETH Eyes Key Resistance Zone At $3,900 Within Rising Channel Thomas Anderson recently shared his analysis of the ETHUSD H1 chart, observing that Ethereum was trading at $3,851.25 and approaching a key resistance zone between $3,876 and $3,900. Price action is unfolding within an ascending channel, with the upper yellow line marking a critical resistance area. Related Reading: Ethereum Could Shoot Above $4,000 This Week, Predicts Analyst He further noted that the 200-day moving average, represented by the red line on the chart, is offering dynamic support around the $2,900 level. This moving average has played a crucial role in sustaining the uptrend and remains an important level to monitor in case of a retracement. The analyst highlighted that Ethereum is now testing the upper boundary of a larger ascending channel, with the $3,287.74 level acting as a solid support zone in the 4H context. Anderson emphasized that this level has served as a major floor during recent consolidations, indicating that any near-term pullback may stabilize there. While the trend remains bullish, ETH could face a temporary dip at current levels before a sustained breakout above the $3,900 area. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com
PayPal Holdings Inc. has rolled out a way for US merchants to accept crypto payments. The company set a flat fee of 0.99% per transaction. That’s a hefty cut compared with the near 2.99% merchants often pay on cross‑border credit card sales. Related Reading: Bitcoin’s New Clock: How Wall Street Killed The Old Cycle, According To Expert According to PayPal, businesses can save up to 90% on transaction costs when buyers pay with digital coins. Flat Fees For Crypto Payments Based on reports, every sale automatically converts crypto into fiat or stablecoins when the merchant chooses. Companies can pick from more than 100 tokens under its “Pay with Crypto” feature. Bitcoin and Ethereum lead the list. Other picks include USDT, XRP, BNB, Solana and PayPal’s own PYUSD. That stablecoin is backed by US dollar deposits, short‑term Treasuries and cash equivalents. Merchants who stick with PYUSD earn 4% rewards on balances held in their PayPal account. ????BREAKING: PayPal will allow U.S. merchants to accept over 100 cryptocurrencies with a 0.99% transaction fee for the first year, increasing to 1.5%. #CryptoPayments #Fintech — Michael Pace (@mjpgroup) July 28, 2025 Wide Range Of Wallets And Coins The American payments processing firm also tied this service into wallets beyond its own. Coinbase, MetaMask, OKX, Binance, Kraken, Phantom and Exodus all plug in. That opens the door to some 650 million crypto users around the globe. PayPal says it’s tapping into a $3 trillion market that has grown fast over the past decade. Smaller businesses in particular could find it easy to add crypto as a payment option without heavy engineering work. A Nod To Global Ambitions The launch follows PayPal’s introduction of PayPal World, a platform that links five digital wallets worldwide. PayPal then struck a deal with Fiserv to spread stablecoin use further abroad. Together, those moves hint at an effort to build plumbing for fast, low‑cost money transfers everywhere. Merchants in the US won’t see surprises at checkout. That 0.99% fee covers network charges and conversion work. By comparison, traditional cross‑border credit card sales often carry fees that climb past 3%. It’s easy math for sellers: a $1,000 sale in crypto costs $9.90 instead of about $30. That margin could be the difference between profit and loss.

Crypto analyst BATMAN has revealed that Ethereum is primed to make a parabolic run to a new all-time high (ATH) of $5,000. The analyst also mentioned the first resistance that ETH needs to break to reach this psychological level. Ethereum Ready To Break Out And Reach $5,000 In an X post, BATMAN noted that Ethereum is ready to break out of a massive consolidation and rally towards $5,000. He stated that the first resistance is between $4,000 and $4,200. Once that is done, there is no resistance until between $4,800 and $5,000, which could spark this rally to the $5,000 psychological level. Related Reading: Crypto Founder Reveals What Will Drive Ethereum Price To $10,000 The analyst declared that Ethereum is still in bullish territory and outperforming Bitcoin. As such, he believes any dips from here could be strong buy zones. Indeed, ETH is currently outperforming BTC. The former is up over 61% in the last 30 days while the latter is up just 11% during this period. It is also worth noting that Ethereum is already looking to reclaim the first resistance between $4,000 and $4,200. The largest altcoin by market just recently broke above $3,900 and is now looking to touch $4,000 for the first time since November last year. Crypto analyst Titan of Crypto also indicated that a parabolic move may be on the horizon for ETH. In an X post, he stated that the ETH/BTC chart is heading to the reload zone, which could spark a massive breakout for Ethereum. His accompanying chart showed that the altcoin could rally to between $7,300 and $8,700 on this move. This suggests that a rally to $5,000, as predicted by BATMAN, is unlikely to signal the top for ETH in this market cycle. ETH Dominance Also On The Rise In an X post, crypto analyst Rekt Capital revealed that Ethereum’s dominance is on the rise, increasing to around 12% for the first time in five years. He noted that the last time the ETH dominance reached 12% was exactly five years ago, in July 2020. With this latest increase, Rekt Capital stated that the altcoin’s dominance is now looking to reach as high as 14%.
