THE LATEST CRYPTO NEWS

Ethereum (ETH) is showing signs of a bullish breakout, forming a complex Inverse Head and Shoulder (iH&S) pattern on the weekly timeframe. This key technical formation suggests that the Ethereum price is on track for a massive rally toward a bullish target of $18,000.  Ethereum Forms Inverse Head & Shoulder Pattern The Ethereum price has been in a long consolidation period, experiencing a crash amid the ongoing market turmoil. Despite recording massive declines that have pushed its value significantly below all-time highs, crypto analyst Gert van Lagen on X (formerly Twitter) predicts that ETH could still reach a price target of $18,000. Related Reading: “Ethereum Is Not Dead”: Broadening Wedge Suggests Another Leg-Up Is Coming Notably, Ethereum recently bounced off the $1,800 – $2,000 support range, which previously served as resistance during the ‘Head’ phase of the iH&S pattern. With this crucial retest confirmed, ETH may be entering the final stage of its reversal, set up to new all-time highs.  Lagen’s $18,000 bullish target is more than 8X Ethereum’s current price, underscoring the sheer magnitude of this projection. Lagen has identified the formation of the iH&S structure on the Ethereum chart, supporting his ambitious prediction with this renowned bullish chart pattern.  The Inverse Head and Shoulder is a classic bullish reversal structure, often signaling the end of a downtrend and the beginning of a strong and new uptrend. Considering the Ethereum’s price has been in a downturn, the formation of the iH&S chart pattern suggests that this prolonged decline may be finally coming to an end. In the analyst’s chart, this left shoulder of the iH&S structure began forming from 2021 to 2022, experiencing a price peak before a pullback. From 2022 to 2023, a deeper decline occurred, marking the cycle low and the formation of the ‘Head.’ Finally, the right shoulder of the technical pattern was formed between 2024 to 2024, recording a higher low that aligned with the left shoulder. Lagen’s price chart highlights that the most critical level to watch is the neckline of the iH&S structure, which is approximately $3,978 and acts as the primary resistance area. How An $18,000 ETH Target Is Possible Still looking at Lagen’s Ethereum price chart, the analyst suggests that if ETH can surpass the $3,978 resistance level with strong volume, it could validate the Inverse Head and Shoulder pattern and open the door for a rally toward $18,000. Conversely, if Ethereum fails to break above this resistance level, a prolonged consolidation or significant pullback may occur before its next breakout attempt.  Related Reading: Ethereum Price Prediction: Extremely Strong Support And Monthly 55 EMA Says ETH Is Headed For $4,867 Lagen predicts that a rejection at the resistance area could see the Ethereum price drop to $1,888 — an important support level which could prevent further declines. A drop to this support would represent a potential 52% dip from the main resistance level and an 8.52% decline from ETH’s current market value of $2,055.

Ethereum is trading back above the key $2,000 level after spending several volatile weeks attempting to reclaim it. Since late February, ETH has dropped more than 38%, triggering widespread panic as the price broke below major support and briefly dipped under $1,800. The decline sparked fears of a prolonged downtrend, with many questioning whether Ethereum had entered a bear market.

Investors are now looking for signs of recovery as ETH stabilizes and retests important levels. A growing number of analysts believe that the recent volatility may have been a final shakeout before a new uptrend. Top analyst Ted Pillows shared insights on X, suggesting that Ethereum may be wrapping up its “manipulation phase.” This phase typically features erratic price action designed to exhaust both bulls and bears before the market commits to a clear direction. If the phase ends soon, Ethereum could rebound significantly in the coming weeks. As ETH hovers near $2,000, the next few sessions will be crucial in determining whether bulls can maintain momentum or if further downside lies ahead. Ethereum Bulls Face A Test As Expansion Phase Looms Ethereum is showing early signs of strength as it hovers just above the critical $2,000 mark, a level that has acted as both a psychological and technical battleground for weeks. Bulls are being called into action as the broader market begins to stabilize, with ETH price action hinting at a potential recovery. However, the situation remains fragile, with uncertainty dominating sentiment and no clear trend established yet. Speculation is split between those anticipating a deeper correction and others betting on a full-scale recovery. For now, Ethereum remains range-bound, and any breakout attempt must be backed by strong conviction to shift momentum. Bulls must defend the $2,000 level and begin targeting higher resistance zones to spark confidence in a sustained uptrend. Pillows stated that Ethereum is likely exiting what he calls the “manipulation phase” — a confusing, price movement designed to exhaust buyers and sellers. According to Pillows, this phase is nearly over, and Ethereum’s expansion time is about to begin. A confirmed breakout above the $2,200 level would be the catalyst for a new expansion cycle, potentially sending ETH into higher territory in the weeks ahead. Until then, price action will remain sensitive, with the next few sessions crucial in deciding Ethereum’s trajectory.

This move marks an important step for bulls who are now trying to solidify momentum and prevent further downside. However, the real test lies ahead, as ETH must reclaim the $2,250 level to initiate a true recovery phase. The $2,250 mark aligns with previous areas of heavy trading activity and could act as the launchpad for a broader uptrend if bulls manage to flip it into support. Successfully retaking this level would likely attract fresh demand and restore investor confidence, especially after the asset shed more than 38% of its value since late February.

If Ethereum fails to hold above $2,000, the market could experience renewed selling pressure, potentially pushing ETH back toward the $1,800 support level. Such a drop would reinforce bearish sentiment and delay any potential recovery rally. For now, traders are watching closely to see if Ethereum can build on its current strength and reclaim higher levels in the sessions ahead. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView 

According to recent reports, President Donald Trump’s crypto venture, the decentralized finance (DeFi) platform World Liberty Financial (WLFI), has unveiled a new stablecoin called USD1.  This token, pegged to the US dollar, is now live on the Ethereum (ETH) and Binance blockchains, although the launch was not officially announced by the company on Monday March 24. World Liberty Financial Launches New Stablecoin The news comes via a report from Fortune, which highlights the expanding crypto portfolio of the President, now serving his second term in the White House’s Oval Office.  On social media, Changpeng Zhao, the former CEO of Binance, shared a link to the USD1 token with his 10 million followers on X, prompting World Liberty Financial to implicitly confirm its legitimacy. However, the company cautioned that USD1 is not currently tradable and warned users to be vigilant against potential scams. Related Reading: Analyst Sets Dogecoin Next Target As Ascending Triangle Forms Stablecoins such as USD1 are becoming increasingly prominent in the crypto market, with notable traction in the US Congress, where lawmakers have introduced several bills to further support the sector. Major players such as Tether, the issuer of the world’s largest stablecoin, USDT, reported $13 billion in profit for 2024, while Circle, the company behind USDC, is planning to go public.  These companies back their stablecoins with US treasuries, allowing them to earn significant yields, which has proven lucrative given their relatively low operational costs compared to traditional corporations. Ethical Concerns Arise World Liberty Financial, announced in August, is part of Trump’s broader foray into the cryptocurrency world, which also includes non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and a memecoin named after the President, TRUMP.  The project is positioning itself within the decentralized finance sector, which aims to replicate traditional banking services—such as lending and borrowing—on blockchain platforms. However, details about the project’s specific offerings remain vague, with little information available on their website. The project’s “gold paper” outlines ambitions to create a comprehensive hub for various DeFi applications, including decentralized lending platforms and crypto exchanges. Trump himself holds the title of “Chief Crypto Advocate” for World Liberty Financial, underscoring his involvement in the initiative. Related Reading: Shiba Inu ETF Proposal—Could This Be SHIB’s Breakout Moment? In a show of investor confidence, the project recently announced it had raised $550 million in token sales, attracting attention from various stakeholders, including Trump family members and loyalists.  Barron, Eric, and Donald Jr. have been designated as World Liberty Financial’s “Web3 Ambassadors,” while real estate magnate Steve Witkoff and his sons are listed as co-founders alongside DeFi developers Zak Folkman and Chase Herro, who previously faced challenges with their project, Dough Finance, which suffered a $2 million hack. Despite the enthusiasm surrounding the project, it has raised ethical concerns among experts, particularly regarding the potential for influence peddling.  Critics have pointed to instances like Justin Sun’s public purchase of $75 million worth of World Liberty Financial tokens, suggesting that such activities could blur the lines of regulatory compliance. At the time of writing, TRUMP memecoin is trading at $11.58, down 30% on a monthly time frame and 84% off its current record high of $73.43 reached on the same day of its debut on January 19.

Bitcoin (BTC) has experienced a notable surge, gaining 3% in the last 24 hours, climbing from $84,000 to $88,600, following reports that upcoming US tariffs on major trading partners will be less severe than initially anticipated.  However, altcoins like Solana (SOL), Dogecoin (DOGE), and Cardano (ADA) have outperformed Bitcoin’s surge in the 24-hour time frame, being the top gainers in the ten largest cryptocurrencies list.  Bitcoin And Top Altcoins Experience Significant Gains Scheduled for announcement on April 2, President Donald Trump had previously indicated that he would impose both reciprocal and sector-specific tariffs on countries including Canada, China, and Mexico.  However, anonymous sources within the White House, as reported by Bloomberg and the Wall Street Journal, have suggested that the president may opt for a narrower approach, focusing solely on reciprocal tariffs.  According to the reports, this shift in strategy appears to signal a tempering of the administration’s approach to a “potential trade war”, which has historically led to increased volatility in both the cryptocurrency and equity markets. Related Reading: XRP Price Could Suffer April Flash Crash, Analyst Shows How Low It Could Go Dan Greer, CEO of Defi App, a decentralized finance platform, noted the correlation between Bitcoin’s recent price increase and the news of the tariff adjustments. “This surge in Bitcoin’s price coincides with reports that the Trump administration is considering narrowing the scope of tariffs set to take effect on April 2,” he stated. The positive sentiment surrounding Bitcoin has extended to the broader cryptocurrency market, with nearly all of the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization experiencing gains on Monday.  Ethereum rose by 4%, XRP by 2%, Solana, DOGE and Cardano led the pack with increases of 8%, 7.8% and 4.5% respectively. The stock market reflected this optimism, with both the Nasdaq and S&P 500 indices rising 2% over the past 24 hours. Expert Insights On BTC’s Recent Fluctuations Greer highlighted that this development has alleviated some market uncertainties, leading to increased investor confidence across both cryptocurrency and equity markets.  The crypto sector, which has faced mixed reactions since Trump took office, has been grappling with the implications of his fluctuating tariff policies. These policies have introduced a considerable degree of economic uncertainty, prompting many investors to retreat from riskier assets. Related Reading: Analyst Sets Dogecoin Next Target As Ascending Triangle Forms The anticipated tariffs—expected to raise the prices of foreign goods—could lead to inflation, further complicating the economic landscape. Bitcoin, which reached an all-time high of $109,000 in January, has seen a decline, dropping to $78,000 earlier this month amid fears that aggressive economic policies could trigger a recession. Colin Closser, investor relations manager at crypto wallet company Exodus, expressed his understanding of the crypto market’s reaction to Trump’s policies. “I expect markets to show emotion and volatility during times of change and stress in the United States, and you can see that volatility in Bitcoin this morning,” he remarked. Since the spike, Bitcoin has seen a bit of a pullback towards the $86,930 level, with the most notable support floor between $83,000 and $84,000.

On Monday, Ethereum (ETH) recovered the $2,000 support, fueled by the market’s recovery. After hitting a two-week high of $2,104, an analyst noted that the cryptocurrency could end March positively. Related Reading: Solana Next Major Move? SOL’s Renewed Uptrend Smashes Through $137 Ethereum Nears Green Monthly Close In the past 24 hours, Ethereum surged 6.2% from the $1,980 mark to $2,104. The start-of-week recovery made ETH retest the $2,100 resistance for the first time in a week and near its crucial price range. Amid the recent performance, Rekt Capital noted that the cryptocurrency’s price action is “not that far away” from turning the downside deviation into a downside wick in the monthly timeframe. ETH dropped below the $2,196-$3,900 range on March 9, plunging to $1,750 in the following days, its lowest level since November 2023. After retesting a historical demand arena, “Ethereum is now only +5% away from positioning itself for a reclaim of its Macro Range,” the analyst explained. Reclaiming this level before March closes would see “this entire sub-$2,200 downside end up as a downside wick.” Moreover, CoinGlass data shows Ethereum’s current price action is 6.8% away from turning March green. The cryptocurrency opened the month at $2,237, and a close above this level could end its three-month bleeding streak. However, if it fails to close March with positive returns, ETH could experience four months of red for the first time since 2018. The “King of Altcoins” has seen its worst Q1 in seven years, currently down 37.46% from its 2025 opening. Nonetheless, Ethereum has historically seen a bullish Q2, only closing the second quarter in red on two occasions. A recovery of ETH’s Macro Range lows could see the cryptocurrency climb back to the range’s highs in the coming three months. Can ETH Recover 2,200? Analyst Ali Martinez pointed out the key levels to watch, suggesting that Ethereum’s most crucial support zone is between $1,886 and $1.944, where more than 3 million investors bought around 6.12 million ETH. Meanwhile, its most significant resistance is between $2,250 and $2,610, where 12.28 million addresses accumulated 65 million ETH. He added that “a decisive break above this area would negate the bearish outlook.” Similarly, Crypto Jelle highlighted that ETH is attempting to reclaim the key $2,200 resistance, which could fuel a “monster deviation” if recovered. Analyst Ted Pillows suggested that Ethereum’s manipulation phase “is almost over.” Previously, the analyst asserted that ETH’s chart displayed a Power of Three (Po3) pattern in the making, signaling that the cryptocurrency is in the manipulation phase. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bottom In Sight As Trump Expected To Soften Stance On Reciprocal Tariffs: Report According to the analyst, “A breakout above $2,200 and an expansion phase will start.” He noted that the breakout could be possible as ETH retested its multi-year trendline support, which has only been retested three times since 2021. The last two times, “they marked the cycle bottom,” which could suggest that Ethereum’s bleeding is poised for a recovery if it repeats its historical performance. As of this writing, Ethereum trades at $2,090, a 4.3% surge in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Some crypto traders might see Ethereum’s price decline as a bad sign for their investments and could be pondering if they should offload their holdings. Meanwhile, whales view the altcoin’s price dip as an opportunity that they must seize by increasing their holdings while the price is down, leading to large investors buying a huge volume of Ethereum in the last three days. Related Reading: 1 Million Bitcoin In New Whale Hands—A Mega BTC Rally On The Horizon? ETH Trading Below $2,000 Analysts said that Ethereum’s price continues to fall as the broader cryptocurrency market is currently experiencing a challenging situation.  Data showed that the world’s largest altcoin struggles to gain an upward momentum and continue to stumble below $2,000. As of writing, Ethereum is traded at $1,988 per coin, with a market cap of nearly $240 billion. According to CoinGecko, since ETH hit $3,640 per coin on January 6, the crypto has been steadily decreasing in value with its first major dip happening on January 14, after hitting $3,007.  On February 3, the coin slid further reaching $2,460 and dropped to $2,100 on February 28. Ethereum hit below $2,000 for the first time on March 11. Since then, ETH has been having trouble keeping itself above $2,000. Whales bought over 120,000 #Ethereum $ETH in the last 72 hours! pic.twitter.com/kuZY6u9drS — Ali (@ali_charts) March 21, 2025 An Opportunity In The Dip? Ethereum struggling to maintain itself at the $2,000 level might worry many crypto traders, but large-scale investors saw an opportunity in the price dip.  Whales used this situation to buy more ETH and further increase their holdings. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez commented in a post that ETH price decline attracted large investors to increase their buying activity. “Whales bought over 120,000 #Ethereum $ETH in the last 72 hours,” Martinez said. The analyst presented a chart that showed a spike in the whale ETH accumulation coinciding with the coin’s price decline, adding that Ethereum’s retreat allowed whales to acquire more than 120,000 ETH tokens with a value of about $236 million and they only did that in three days. “That’s a significant move by the whales! Their accumulation often indicates confidence in the market. It’s fascinating to see how these big players can influence price trajectories,’ Agent Snek commented on Martinez’s post. Whale Buys Over 7,000 ETH Meanwhile, data analytics platform Lookonchain tracked a whale who added nearly $14 million worth of ETH. “A whale bought 7,074 $ETH($13.8M) today! The whale withdrew 4,511 $ETH($8.81M) from #OKX 3 hours ago and deposited it into #Aave,” Lookonchain said in a post. Related Reading: Ethereum Supply Squeeze? 10-Year Low Ignites Price Speculation The analyst added that the whale did not stop depositing in Aave, a decentralized finance platform.

A crypto analyst has predicted that the Ethereum price could be gearing up for an additional 13% crash to new lows. Currently, the cryptocurrency is hovering near the crucial $2,200 resistance, where a rejection could fuel further volatility and trigger a significant decline.  Ethereum Price Set For $1,700 Crash In a recent technical analysis published by MadWhale, a TradingView crypto expert, the Ethereum price is projected to experience a severe price breakdown, declining by 13% to reach $1,700. The analyst attributes this bearish outlook to the cryptocurrency’s recent price action and chart patterns.  Related Reading: Ethereum Retests Symmetrical Triangle Pattern, Analyst Sets Next Target MadWhale shared an Ethereum price chart showing that the cryptocurrency is moving within a Descending Channel. This channel is generally a bearish chart pattern formed when two downward-sloping trend lines connect at lower highs and lower lows. It usually indicates a major downtrend, in which sellers dominate the market rather than buyers. Presently, the Ethereum price is fast approaching a main resistance area at $2,200, situated around the upper boundary of the Descending Channel pattern and marked by the red shaded area on the chart. Historically, when its price reaches this area, it often encounters significant selling pressure that leads to a sharp downward price reversal.  MadWhale’s analysis suggests that the cryptocurrency may fail to break this critical resistance area, triggering his predicted decline to $1,700. This target aligns with a strong support area where the cryptocurrency has previously found buying interest.  Notably, Ethereum’s volume analysis also indicates fluctuating market participation, with no strong signs of bullish drivers or strong momentum. If volume remains low and selling pressure increases, Ethereum is likely to experience further price declines. Analyst Predicts Three Key Targets For Ethereum Despite the ongoing selling pressure and decline in the Ethereum price, crypto analyst Patron on X (formerly Twitter) remains optimistic about the cryptocurrency’s future outlook. The market expert has predicted three bullish targets for the Ethereum price, believing that it is only a matter of time before its present downtrend dissipates.  Related Reading: Ethereum Price Crash To $2,000 Could Happen As Smaller Timeframes Turn Bearish The analyst noted that Ethereum had reached a key support level, where a bounce from this threshold could trigger a surge to his projected targets marked by yellow lines on his price chart. With the Ethereum price trading at $1,989 as of writing, the analyst forecasts that it could reach a first target of $2,296, representing a 15.44% increase.  After this surge, Patron predicted that Ethereum would reclaim previous highs and rally to $2,913, marking a 46.46% gain. For his final target, he projects a surge to $4,000, reflecting a 101% jump to a new ATH. Notably, the analyst claims that if Ethereum can reach these bullish targets, it could yield a significant 100% profit for investors. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from Tradingview.com

The supply of Ethereum on cryptocurrency exchanges has declined to a level not seen since November 2015, a key indicator of the dramatic change in how investors are storing the digital currency. Based on recent data, around 8.97 million ETH are in their possession now. This shortage comes as the price of Ethereum has taken a precipitous decline. Related Reading: 1 Million Bitcoin In New Whale Hands—A Mega BTC Rally On The Horizon? Supply Tightens On Exchanges The declining volume of Ether on exchanges is an indication that the holders are taking their money elsewhere in growing numbers. One of the main reasons behind this is the rise of decentralized finance, or DeFi for short, according to a recent examination by Santiment. People are interacting with several DeFi protocols with their Ethereum to lend liquidity or earn rewards. Another principal element is the expansion of staking, whereby ETH owners “lock up” their coins to help secure the network and be rewarded while doing so. Therefore, there is fewer Ethereum to sell on the exchanges. ???? Thanks to the many DeFi and staking options, Ethereum’s holders have now brought the available supply on exchanges down to 8.97M, the lowest amount in nearly 10 years (November, 2015). There is 16.4% less $ETH on exchanges compared to just 7 weeks ago. ???? pic.twitter.com/r5957wPhLi — Santiment (@santimentfeed) March 20, 2025 Ethereum Price Takes A Hit Despite the lower supply of Ethereum on exchanges, which some would expect to drive prices up because of scarcity, the opposite has occurred. Based on latest figures, the price of Ethereum has dropped by about 45% from its December high. On March 21, the price was about $1,899. Ethereum has been among the worst-performing major cryptocurrencies over the past few years. The cause for such a decline in price is varied and can involve overall market sentiment, macroeconomic conditions, and increased competition from other blockchain systems. Experts Share Their Thoughts Financial analysts are giving their opinions regarding what this means for the future value of Ethereum. Standard Chartered, a well-known financial institution, has recently reduced its year-end price target for Ethereum. They now predict a price of $4,000 at the end of the year, a significant drop from their previous estimate of $10,000. The primary purpose of this revision is the rising competition from Ethereum’s competitor layer-2 networks, which aim to provide faster and cheaper transactions on the Ethereum foundation blockchain. Users and traffic on such networks can be different from the central Ethereum network. Related Reading: XRP Turnaround Moment? Analyst Says It’s Lift-Off Time Upsides On The Horizon? Despite the current price hiccups, there are potential explanations why a recovery could be realized. One possibility is staking exchange-traded funds, or ETFs. If regulations allow ETFs that directly stake Ethereum, it could attract more institutional investment and increase demand. Featured image from Gemini Imagen, chart from TradingView

Ethereum has experienced a much-needed surge above the $2,000 level, a key psychological and technical mark that bulls have struggled to reclaim since March 10. This breakout sparked optimism in the market, but the momentum was short-lived, as ETH quickly pulled back below the level and was unable to confirm a solid hold. Analysts widely agree that a strong and sustained move above $2,000 is critical for Ethereum to initiate a broader recovery rally. Related Reading: Dogecoin Forms A Daily Bullish Pattern – Analyst Expects A Breakout To $0.43 Despite the hesitation at resistance, on-chain data shows signs of growing investor confidence. According to Santiment, investors have withdrawn over 360,000 ETH from centralized exchanges in the last 48 hours. This shift is often interpreted as a bullish signal, suggesting that large holders are moving their assets to private wallets, possibly in anticipation of higher prices. Meanwhile, the broader macroeconomic landscape continues to apply pressure. Trade war tensions and unpredictable policy decisions from the U.S. government have weighed heavily on both crypto and traditional markets, intensifying volatility and investor uncertainty. Still, Ethereum’s latest exchange outflows hint at a potential trend shift — one that could favor accumulation and set the stage for the next major move, provided bulls can reclaim and hold above the $2K threshold. Ethereum Faces Critical Test Amid Exchange Outflows Ethereum has lost over 57% of its value since mid-December, falling from a high of around $4,100 to recent lows near $1,750. This sharp correction has created a challenging environment for bulls, who have repeatedly failed to reclaim and hold higher price levels. Now, the $2,000 mark stands as a psychological and technical battlefield. If Ethereum can firmly establish support above this level, it could provide the foundation for a recovery rally. However, a failure to do so would likely result in further downside and reinforce the bearish trend. Related Reading: Ethereum Trades At A Critical Level – Major Reclaim Or Steep Drop Ahead? The current market landscape struggles with uncertainty. On one side, continued macroeconomic headwinds—rising trade tensions, inflation concerns, and policy shifts from the U.S. government—have weakened investor confidence and driven volatility across risk assets. On the other hand, there are signs of potential recovery and accumulation. Top crypto analyst Ali Martinez shared data from Santiment, revealing that investors have withdrawn over 360,000 ETH from centralized exchanges in the past 48 hours. Historically, large-scale withdrawals are considered a bullish signal, as they suggest investors are moving assets into cold storage for long-term holding rather than preparing to sell. This move could indicate growing confidence among large holders and signal the early stages of a new accumulation phase—provided Ethereum can hold above $2,000. Price Holds Steady Below $2,000 Ethereum is currently trading at $1,960 after briefly attempting to reclaim the $2,000 mark in yesterday’s session. The psychological and technical resistance at $2,000 remains a crucial barrier that bulls must overcome to shift market momentum in their favor. Despite a small bounce from recent lows, Ethereum has struggled to gain traction amid persistent market uncertainty. Bulls need to push ETH above $2,000 and reclaim higher levels such as $2,150 and $2,300 to confirm the beginning of a recovery phase. A sustained move above these levels would not only signal a potential trend reversal but could also attract sidelined investors back into the market. Until that happens, Ethereum remains vulnerable to continued downside pressure.

With the broader crypto market still under the influence of macroeconomic volatility and weak sentiment, the coming days are likely to be pivotal for ETH’s short-term direction. A decisive move either above or below this key range will likely set the tone for the next major price action. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView 

Crypto analyst TradingShot has revealed that the Ethereum price has formed a megaphone bottom which has not been seen since 2020. The analyst revealed what happened the last time ETH formed this bottom, which provides a bullish outlook for the altcoin.  Ethereum Price Forms Megaphone Bottom In a TradingView post, TradingShot stated that the Ethereum price has formed a megaphone bottom like in March 2020. He noted that ETH is currently on the first week of a rebound after recording three consecutive red weeks when it could not break above the 1-week MA50. The analyst further remarked that ETH is taking on a lower lows trendline, which is technically the bottom of a 1-year megaphone since the March 11, 2024 high. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Prediction: Extremely Strong Support And Monthly 55 EMA Says ETH Is Headed For $4,867 TradingShot claimed that the market is no stranger to long-term megaphone consolidation periods like that. He stated that the Ethereum price eventually broke upward the last time it formed this megaphone between June 2019 and March 2020, which happened after the brutal COVID crash bearish leg that touched bottom.  He noted that the March 2020 period is quite similar to the current bearish Ethereum price action since late December. The analyst then highlighted how perfectly aligned the Fibonacci retracement levels are. Based on this development, he predicted that the Ethereum price could at least test the 1.5 Fibonacci extension at $6,000 before this cycle tops at the end of the year.  Crypto analyst Crypto Patel also raised the possibility of the Ethereum price rallying to as high as $8,000. He suggested that this parabolic move could happen in phase E of ETH’s bull run. He indicated that ETH could face significant resistance at around $4,050 to this price level.  Bullish Fundamentals For ETH Despite its underperformance, the Ethereum price has bullish fundamentals, which could spark a reversal to the upside and cause it to reach new highs. Crypto analyst Alternative Bull revealed that the exchange reserves of ETH are significantly declining. He remarked that this would lead to a limited supply which makes it only a matter of time before ETH goes parabolic. In line with this, the analyst affirmed that the altcoin is still in the early phases of its bull run.  Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Publishes Insanely Bullish Report For Ethereum, Here Are The Facts Crypto analyst Ali Martinez has also revealed that whales are actively accumulating ETH, which is bullish for the Ethereum price. In an X post, he stated that 360,000 ETH were withdrawn from crypto exchanges in the last 48 hours, a development that could spark a supply shock.  It is also worth mentioning that the Ethereum price could soon witness a supply shock through the ETH ETFs. Asset managers like Bitwise have filed with the US SEC to include staking in their funds. If approved, this could take more ETH out of circulation as some institutional investors opt to stake their ETH to receive yields.  At the time of writing, the Ethereum price is trading at around $1,969, down almost 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Crypto detective ZachXBT alleged that the mysterious “Hyperliquid whale” that’s been making headlines across the crypto community is suspected to be a convicted criminal from the UK. The trader has made around $20 million in profit from leveraged trading, raising questions about their identity. Related Reading: Bitcoin To Get ‘Interesting’ As Price Retests $85,000 – Here Are The Levels To Watch Mysterious Hyperliquid Whale Not A Crypto Insider On Thursday, ZachXBT shared an investigation revealing the “Hyperliquid Whale” as a British hacker previously charged with multiple crimes. The trader’s identity has been a hot topic among crypto investors over the past few weeks. According to the X thread, the trader was identified as William Parker, known as Alistair Packover, before he changed his name. Parker was arrested and sentenced in Finland in 2024 for stealing nearly $1 million from two online casinos in 2023. Since January 2025, the trader has made millions by opening several highly leveraged positions on Hyperliquid and GMX but gained attention this month for two specific trades. Right before US President Donald Trump’s “Strategic Crypto Reserve” announcement on March 2, the whale opened a large Ethereum (ETH) and Bitcoin (BTC) long position on 50X leverage using address 0xe4d3. Following this trade, the crypto community speculated that the whale could be an insider, with some users alleging that the trader was linked to the Trump family due to their timing. Meanwhile, others suggested that the mysterious whale was tied to the North Korean hacking group Lazarus. The trader later opened a BTC short position on 40X leverage using address 0xf3F4, profiting $19 million from the two positions. After the whale closed its short position earlier this week, the crypto sleuth revealed that the trader was allegedly involved in illicit activity. “It’s funny watching CT speculate on the ‘Hyperliquid whale’ when in reality it’s just a cybercriminal gambling with stolen funds,” he initially responded to the speculation. Connecting The On-Chain Dots In the thread, ZachXBT shared four key counterparties of the 0xf3f address, including 0xe4d3, which he had identified. He also noted that the cluster was tied to Roobet, Binance, Gamdom, ChangeNOW, Shuffle, Alphapo, BC Game, and Metawin accounts. Additionally, the 0xf3f signed a message on-chain with an X account under the username @qwatio, which has seemingly been purchased recently. After the crypto detective’s initial claims, the X user denied the cybercrime allegations and claimed the $20 million profits from the GMX and HL trades were clean and traceable on the blockchain. However, the on-chain investigator alleges that “he would have to control the related wallets in this cluster for the $20M number to be accurate.” Notably, an address in the cluster, 0x7ab, was found to have received funds from a phishing scam and an exploited casino game on Solana. Related Reading: SUI Ready For 15% Move Amid Key Level Retest – Breakout Or Breakdown Ahead? Then, ZachXBT tracked down a recent payment from 0xe4d3 and obtained a UK phone number that seemingly connects the trader and the name William Parker. I tracked down a recent payment from 0xe4d3 to an unnamed person who confirmed they had been paid by the HL trader. They provided a UK phone number used to communicate with them. Public record reveals the name William Parker is likely tied to this number. The crypto sleuth concluded that Parker, who was also convicted three times in the early 2010s for crimes related to fraud, hacking, and gambling, has now “gambled 6 figs into $20M using high leverage on-chain” for the past two months, and will likely continue to do so.

Ethereum has experienced a crucial surge above the $2,000 mark, a key level that bulls have struggled to reclaim since March 10. This breakout brings renewed optimism, as analysts believe a stronghold above this level could trigger a rally toward higher prices. However, if ETH fails to maintain support above $2,000, a significant drop could follow, leading to further market instability. Related Reading: On-Chain Data Signals Key Test For Solana At $135 Level – Insights Macroeconomic uncertainty and trade war fears have continued to shake the crypto market, with Ethereum being one of the most affected assets. The recent price action reflects investor caution, as global financial conditions remain unpredictable. Top analyst Jelle shared a technical analysis on X, revealing that ETH is trading at a critical level that will determine its long-term direction in the coming weeks. Bulls must sustain momentum to solidify a bullish structure, while bears are watching for signs of weakness to drive prices lower. With ETH at a pivotal juncture, the next few trading sessions could be decisive for its trajectory. Ethereum at a Crossroads: Breakout or Breakdown? Ethereum has lost over 57% of its value since mid-December, with bulls struggling to reclaim higher prices as selling pressure dominates the market. Despite occasional relief rallies, ETH has remained under key resistance levels, leaving investors uncertain about its next move. Speculation about a potential recovery and a continuation of the downtrend are colliding, as price action shows no clear direction. The $2,000 level has become the ultimate test for Ethereum. Bulls must defend this price with conviction to sustain any meaningful recovery. Losing this support could lead to a sharp decline, pushing ETH into deeper bearish territory. Jelle stated in his analysis that either ETH is about to put in a massive reclaim or it’s about to jump off a cliff. The $2,000 level is the key limit that will determine Ethereum’s next move. If bulls can maintain strength above this mark, a push toward $2,300 and beyond could follow. However, failure to hold $2,000 would signal further downside, with the next major support sitting around $1,750. Ethereum’s fate hangs in the balance, and the coming days will be crucial in deciding whether it regains bullish momentum or continues its descent. Related Reading: XRP Bulls Face A Big Test – Metrics Show $2.40 As The Most Critical Resistance Level Ethereum Battles to Hold $2,000: Key Levels to Watch Ethereum is currently trading at $1,980 after days of struggling below the crucial $2,000 mark. Bulls managed to briefly push the price above this level, but sustaining it is now the real challenge. Holding above $2,000 is critical for Ethereum’s recovery, as it would signal strength and open the door for a rally toward the $2,200 mark. The $2,200 level is the most important resistance for ETH to reclaim in order to confirm a bullish reversal. A successful break and consolidation above this point would indicate that bulls are regaining control, potentially leading to a move toward higher targets. However, if Ethereum fails to hold above $2,000, selling pressure could increase, leading to a deeper correction. A drop below this level could trigger a sharp decline, pushing ETH toward the $1,800 support zone. If this support fails, the next major liquidity level would be around $1,750, where buyers might step in to prevent further downside.

The Ethereum price is showing signs of a possible trend reversal as technical indicators like the Continuous Linked Settlement (CLS) suggest a breakout may be on the horizon. The crypto expert who shared this analysis has predicted that Ethereum is set to rebound to $2,600 in this bull cycle.  Ethereum CLS Sparks Potential Price Rally David Perk, a TradingView crypto analyst recently published a detailed technical analysis of the Ethereum price. The analyst forecasts that ETH could soon reach $2,600 and beyond in the coming months.  Related Reading: Crypto Pundit Says Ethereum Price Is ‘Destined’ To Reach $10,000 This Cycle, Here’s Why Perk based his predictions on Ethereum’s daily and monthly CLS. According to his analysis, if Ethereum’s price action can respect its daily CLS and liquidity zone, it could gradually move upward, targeting its monthly CLS of $2,055 before skyrocketing above $2,600.  His analysis report described in detail what CLS means and how it can affect a cryptocurrency’s trajectory. Perk disclosed that CLS represents “smart money” across all markets. It is the global settlement system used by major financial institutions, including Foreign Exchange (FOREX) markets.  The crypto analyst suggested that CLS processes a massive volume of capital from large investment and central banks, boasting a daily volume of more than $6.5 trillion. In the case of Ethereum, since CLS follows a structured settlement process, traders who track these cycles can potentially anticipate significant price changes and liquidity shifts. Moreover, by knowing when large institutional money is entering or exiting the market, analysts can predict ideal entry and exit points for a cryptocurrency.  Perk’s Ethereum price chart shows an area marked in green, which represents the cryptocurrency’s liquidity zone. Additionally, the daily and monthly CLS can be seen, with the former acting as a support area and the latter as a resistance or target for future price movements.  ETH Falling Wedge Breakout Targets $2,800 In other news, crypto analyst Marzell has shared a bullish prediction of the Ethereum price in an X (formerly Twitter) post. Marzell announced that Ethereum has successfully broken out of a Falling Wedge pattern.  Related Reading: Ethereum Price Recovery: Analyst Predicts Blow Off Top To $3,300 In One Week, Here’s Why The Falling Wedge is known as a common bullish reversal pattern where a cryptocurrency’s price moves within two converging trend lines, forming lower highs and lower lows. Notably, Ethereum has broken out of this wedge, signaling a potential rebound is imminent. The breakout occurred around the $1,991 price point, confirming its bullish momentum. As a result, Marzell predicts that Ethereum could experience a massive rally to $2,821, marking a whopping 41.69% increase from its breakout level. Currently, the price of Ethereum is trading at $2,008, already seeing a rise of 3.7% in the last 24 hours. If a rally to $2,821 occurs, it would represent a surge of approximately 40.5%.

According to an X post by crypto analyst CryptoGoos, Ethereum (ETH) may be nearing the end of a bear trap. The analyst predicts that the cryptocurrency could surge past its recent range high of $4,000, potentially eyeing a new all-time high (ATH) of $10,000. Ethereum Breaking Out Of The Bear Trap? Ethereum appears poised to break free from a potential bear trap, as the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap continues to trade in the low $2,000 range after enduring a strong sell-off since December 2024. Related Reading: Historical Pattern From 2020 Hints Ethereum Could Be Poised For A Parabolic Rally, Analysts Explain For the uninitiated, a bear trap refers to a false signal that makes it seem like an asset’s price is continuing to fall, tempting traders to short it – only for the price to suddenly reverse and rise, causing those short positions to get liquidated. In a recent X post, CryptoGoos emphasized that ETH may be nearing the end of such a trap. The analyst shared an ETH weekly chart illustrating how the cryptocurrency could be on the brink of a trend reversal after months of relentless sell-offs. Fellow crypto analyst Merlijn The Trader echoed CryptoGoos’ sentiment, highlighting similarities between ETH’s current price action and patterns seen in 2020. He noted that the last time this setup emerged, “panic turned into a historic rally.” Crypto investor Rekt Capital also weighed in, pointing out that Ethereum is trading within a “historical demand area.” The investor stated: If price can generate a strong enough reaction here, then #ETH will be able to reclaim the $2196-$3900 Macro Range (black). If ETH does this before the March Monthly Close, then this entire sub-$2200 downside would end up as a downside wick. ETH About To Exit Accumulation Phase Seasoned crypto commentator Ted shared a chart indicating that ETH has broken out of its short-term accumulation phase. He explained that the digital asset has been in accumulation since its drop from $3,000 to $1,800. Ted added that sustained price action above $2,000 could ignite a significant price rally. Noted analyst Daan Crypto Trades revealed that he recently converted some of his long-term Bitcoin (BTC) holdings into ETH for the “first time in years.” He cited the current ETH/BTC trading pair as presenting an attractive risk/reward setup.

Beyond bullish price action, several technical indicators are signaling a potential ETH rally in the near term. Notably, ETH’s weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI) recently hit a multi-year low – a sign that a trend reversal could be imminent. However, rising ETH reserves on crypto exchanges remain a point of caution, as they could suppress bullish momentum if investors opt to sell. At press time, ETH trades at $2,029, up 7.8% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Unsplash, charts from X and Tradingview.com

Ethereum’s price has now found itself stuck below $2,000 in the past seven days, and it looks like it will continue here into the next few days with little sign of a significant recovery. The second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization has struggled under downward pressure since early March, with sellers dominating the wider crypto market.  Interestingly, recent technical analysis using Elliott Wave theory suggests that bearish dominance will continue for Ethereum into the foreseeable future. The analysis, posted on TradingView, highlights the formation of an ABC correction pattern, which could dictate Ethereum’s next major move. Ethereum’s Price Structure Points To Extended Correction According to a crypto analyst known as behdark on the TradingView platform, Ethereum’s recent pivot formations, momentum shifts, and wave degrees all indicate an ongoing correction. This interesting outlook is based on the analyst’s count of Elliott Wave, which shows Ethereum appears to be forming an ABC correction pattern.  Related Reading: Ethereum Price Maintains Movement Inside Ascending Triangle, Is Another Crash Coming? This ABC correction pattern has been playing out since November 2021 and has spanned the last three and half years. The ABC corrective trend is a three-wave pattern in the Elliott Wave Theory of major correction. Wave A represents the initial decline, wave B is a temporary retracement or countertrend move, and wave C is the final downward leg, often extending beyond wave A. It would seem wave B, the second wave in the correction pattern, is now completed or nearing completion after Ethereum broke below a trendline around $2,500 in late February. This means that wave C is set to play out, which is going to extend the current bearish trend. The analyst noted that wave C should be a little bit longer in duration than wave A, hinting at a drawn-out decline to a big demand zone between $760 and $530. Two Demand Zones Identified For ETH The analyst outlined two possible market bottoms for Ethereum, referred to as “Demand 1” and “Demand 2.” The first demand zone is between $1,350 and $1,080, and this is where Ethereum might see some buying pressure that will help put an end to the continuation of wave C. Related Reading: “Ethereum Is Not Dead”: Broadening Wedge Suggests Another Leg-Up Is Coming However, if the first demand zone fails to hold, the Ethereum price may experience an even deeper correction before finding stability. The next zone of stability, in this case, is between $760 and $530. A move to this level will no doubt send the sentiment surrounding Ethereum to an all-time low. However, it can also provide an opportunity for bullish traders to accumulate, as the next move after this zone is the beginning of the next five impulse waves.  Deviating from the negative outlook, the analyst pointed out an invalidation level at $2,941. If Ethereum manages to close a daily candle above this level, the bearish scenario would be nullified.  At the time of writing, Ethereum is trading at $1,930. Given the current structure of price action, the likelihood of Ethereum breaking above $2,941 in the short term appears slim. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from Tradingview.com

A cryptocurrency expert thinks that XRP might overtake Ethereum in market value in the next three months, which could threaten Ethereum’s position as the second biggest cryptocurrency. This claim has triggered arguments in the cryptoverse, with some people doubting if Ethereum can stay in its No. 2 spot. Related Reading: XRP Puzzle: London Fund Manager Breaks Down Why Price Isn’t Rising Ethereum’s Struggles Raise Worries Ethereum has struggled in recent months, leading some analysts to suggest that its dominance is fading. According to reports, Ethereum’s market cap has been declining, and its price has failed to gain significant momentum. Analyst Says Ether Is ‘Dying’ A crypto analyst who made this bold prediction says that some of the issues the Ethereum network is being hounded with include slow processing and high fees. These problems have made some users and developers explore alternative blockchain solutions, including XRP Ledger. ETH is dying. I give it 90 days. That’s all it takes for $XRP to flip its market cap. — EDO FARINA ???? XRP (@edward_farina) March 15, 2025 Given the current state of the market, Edoardo Farina, a market analyst and the founder of Alpha Lions Academy, thinks XRP could soon surpass Ethereum in terms of market capitalization. “ETH is dying,” the pundit asserted. For comparison, with a market valuation of $230 billion, ETH remains the second-largest cryptocurrency asset despite the poor performance. XRP’s Growth Gains Attention The token’s expanding use cases and regulatory clarity are the primary reasons why XRP supporters believe it has what it takes to surpass Ethereum. Ripple, the organization responsible for XRP, has been developing cross-border payment solutions that have the potential to increase their adoption. XRP could surpass Ethereum in market capitalization within three months if it maintains its present trajectory, according to Farina. Ethereum is worth more than $400 billion right now, while XRP is valued about $35 billion. So, even though there is a big difference, a flippening could happen if Ethereum keeps having trouble and the price of XRP soars. Dispute Regarding The Prediction Not everyone agrees with the forecast. Many argue that XRP’s decentralized finance (DeFi) and smart contract features would never allow it to rival Ethereum. Ethereum has thousands of projects built on its blockchain, giving it a strong foundation despite its recent challenges. Related Reading: Solana Marks 5-Year Journey – 400 Billion Transactions And Counting What Is The Next Action? While the debate continues, market trends will ultimately determine whether XRP can challenge Ethereum’s position. For now, Ethereum remains the second-largest cryptocurrency, but if its struggles persist, XRP supporters may have reason to be optimistic. The next months will be of great relevance. If Ethereum can find its rhythm, its position will most likely become more dominant. But if XRP sees major price rises and general acceptance, the crypto rankings might change significantly.

Ethereum, like the broader crypto market, has experienced a sharp drop in price in recent weeks. From a high of $3,352 at the start of 2025, Ether now trades around $1,800 and $1,900, reflecting a sharp drop to the world’s second-biggest crypto by market cap. Looking at Ether’s bigger picture, it’s down 47% from last year’s value. Related Reading: XRP To Triple Digits? Analyst Confident In $100 Price Goal If we go by the latest analyses and observations from commentators, Ether’s price correction will likely be extended. The altcoin is facing a huge bearish wave, with plenty of market factors undermining its price performance. One significant factor is Standard Chartered’s recent decision to cut its price prediction by 60%, confirming market expectations. News: Standard Chartered slashes ETH price target! ????

Ether’s price is currently floating above the $1,900 level as it continues its bearish price movements. Analysts use the MACD indicator to verify and confirm the asset’s bearish sentiment. Also, the asset’s moving averages suggest a neutral trend and possible price consolidation. Ethereum (ETH) remains in the correction zone today, trading around $1,874.

The asset’s price is consolidating below its 5-day and 200-day moving averages, with traders looking for possible rejection or breakout. Since it fell below $2k, sentiments have been generally bearish, with many questioning its future price trends. Standard Chartered Cuts Price Estimates For Ethereum Even some of the biggest banks, like Standard Chartered Bank, are lowering their expectations of Ethereum. From a high of $10,000, the bank is reducing its price target to just $4,000, explaining that the Layer 2s are impacting its bottom line. The bank added that changes and improvements to the blockchain affected its overall value, like its shift to the proof-of-stake and scaling roadmap. Standard Chartered used Coinbase’s Base Layer 2 as an example, suggesting that the project has cost Ethereum $50 billion from its market cap. According to Geoff Kendrick, Standard Chartered analyst, Ethereum’s losses will continue as Base’s dominance in the industry continues. Kendrick calls this the blockchain’s “midlife crisis”, adding that Ethereum’s chain has become a commodity with its Layer 2 framework. Related Reading: Solana Marks 5-Year Journey – 400 Billion Transactions And Counting Things Ethereum Can Do To Address Its Slide According to Kendrick, Ethereum can address its downturn in two ways. First, it can leverage its security-based dominance in the context of the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA). If Ethereum focuses on security, it can maintain its 80% market share. Second, it can charge taxes for its Layer 2s, but it’s highly unlikely. Kendrick expects Ethereum to continue its underperformance in the short term.

Ethereum has faced intense selling pressure over the past few weeks, with its price falling below the $2,000 threshold. This intense run of declines saw the cryptocurrency reach a low of $1,750 on March 11, marking its lowest point since November 2023. However, despite this steep drop, a new technical setup suggests Ethereum could be on the verge of a bullish turnaround, as it now retests a key resistance level on the 4-hour chart. Ethereum Retests Critical Resistance After Rebound Ethereum’s price action has been full of downtrends and many investors exiting their positions since the beginning of March. As such, Ethereum broke finally below $2,000 on March 10 after support failed to hold, and has spend the past week trading below this level. Related Reading: Ethereum, Dogecoin Lead Large Cap Losses As Bitcoin Moves Into Bear Market Territory Although after sinking to $1,750, Ethereum has shown signs of recovery and has now rebounded to around $1,900. This little price action of recovery has brought the cryptocurrency back to a downward-sloping resistance trendline, a level that has acted as a barrier to brief upward movements of accumulations during the recent downtrend. The test of this resistance now presents a potential breakout scenario where bullish momentum flows into Ethereum. An analyst on TradingView highlighted this setup, noting that a breakout above the resistance trendline could open the doors for a significant rally above $2,000. Analyst Sets Bullish Price Targets For ETH Despite the prevailing bearish sentiment that continues to weigh heavily on the broader crypto market, a TradingView analyst has identified a bullish trade setup on Ethereum’s 4-hour candlestick chart. This suggests that despite the recent decline, there remains a degree of optimism among some analysts and investors who believe Ethereum could soon regain its bullish footing.  Related Reading: Ethereum In 2024 Vs. 2025: What Important Technical Indicators Are Saying According to the analysis, a confirmed breakout above $1,885 could serve as an ideal entry point. At the time of writing, Ethereum is yet to break above the downward sloping resistance trendline, as the breakout point is currently set just below $2,000. If Ethereum were to eventually break above the resistance, the analyst noted a probable price target of $2,596.  On the flip side, the analysis advices placing a stop loss at $1,700, meaning the setup is structured to manage risk while aiming for substantial gains. This is in case if the bearish momentum is too great to be overcome, and the Ethereum price gets rejected again at the resistance trendline. Given the high-risk reward ratio, the analyst advised watching for a surge in volume, which would provide confirmation that Ethereum is breaking out with momentum. At the time of writing, Ethereum is trading at $1,895. Price action in the past 24 hours saw Ethereum reach an intra-day high of $1,950 before rejecting. However, the leading altcoin is still rolling around this resistance trendline, and there is a chance of a push upward again in the next 48 hours.

Ethereum is currently consolidating below the $2,000 mark, trading within a narrow range between $1,800 and $1,900 as market uncertainty persists. Bulls have lost control, and speculation about a potential continuation of the bear trend is growing among analysts and investors. With macroeconomic instability, rising trade war fears, and erratic policy decisions from US President Trump, both crypto and U.S. stock markets remain highly volatile, adding to Ethereum’s struggles. Related Reading: Solana Holds Bullish Pattern – Expert Sets $140 Target To highlight Ethereum’s fragile position, top analyst Mister Crypto shared a technical analysis revealing that ETH is currently testing a 5-year-long trendline, a crucial level that has historically acted as strong support during major corrections. If Ethereum fails to hold this trendline, the market could see a deeper decline, reinforcing bearish sentiment and potentially pushing ETH toward lower demand zones. On the other hand, if Ethereum holds above this trendline, it could trigger a strong recovery, offering hope for bulls looking for a reversal. Over the coming days, Ethereum’s reaction at this level will determine its next major move, making this a pivotal moment for the second-largest cryptocurrency. Ethereum Faces Crucial Test as It Trades Below Multi-Year Support Ethereum has been under massive selling pressure, driven by macroeconomic uncertainty and trade war fears that have rattled both the crypto and U.S. stock markets. With risk assets struggling to find stability, ETH has lost key price levels and now trades below a critical multi-year support around $2,000, which could flip into strong resistance if bulls fail to reclaim it. Related Reading: 130,000 Ethereum Moved Off Exchanges – Bullish Signal? Analysts warn that Ethereum’s downtrend may continue as broader economic conditions show no signs of improvement. Investors remain cautious, with global trade tensions, inflation concerns, and U.S. regulatory uncertainties weighing on market sentiment. However, despite these bearish factors, some experts believe Ethereum could be preparing for a long-term recovery. Mister Crypto’s technical analysis on X highlights that Ethereum is currently testing a 5-year-long support trendline, an even stronger level than the $2,000 demand zone. According to his insights, this trendline has historically held during major corrections and served as a key turning point for bullish reversals. If Ethereum maintains support above this level, it could trigger a significant recovery rally, pushing ETH back above $2,000 and beyond. Over the coming weeks, Ethereum’s price reaction at this crucial trendline will determine whether a reversal is on the horizon or if the bearish trend will extend further. ETH Bulls And Bears Battle For Control Ethereum is now at a crucial crossroads, with bulls struggling to reclaim the $2,000 mark, while bears fail to push ETH below $1,800. This prolonged consolidation phase has left investors uncertain about the next major move for ETH. For a recovery rally to take shape, bulls must reclaim the $2,300 level, which aligns with the 4-hour 200 moving average (MA) and exponential moving average (EMA). Breaking above this level would signal a shift in momentum and pave the way for further upside toward key resistance zones. However, failure to reclaim the $2,000 mark and hold above crucial moving averages could trigger another wave of selling pressure. A decisive drop below $1,800 would put Ethereum in dangerous territory, opening the door for a potential retest of lower demand zones around $1,600-$1,700.

According to an X post by crypto analyst Mister Crypto, Ethereum (ETH) could be on the verge of a massive rally. The analyst highlighted similarities between the current ETH price action and that of 2020, following the COVID market crash. Ethereum On The Cusp Of Trend Reversal?

Mister Crypto’s thoughts were echoed by fellow crypto analyst Merlijn The Trader. In a separate X post, the analyst stated that ETH is likely repeating its historical cycle, which typically sees capitulation before a massive run-up. In addition to the COVID crash, the analyst highlighted the Luna crash of 2022 as another instance when bearish sentiment surrounding ETH was at its peak. However, the digital asset quickly overcame the pessimism, going on to experience a massive 270% rally. Multiple Indicators Point Toward ETH Rally Beyond the bullish historical patterns, multiple indicators suggest a potential rally for ETH. In an X post, crypto analyst TraderPA remarked that Ethereum is currently oversold at its present price and that the weekly Stochastic Relative Strength Index (RSI) is signaling a potential rebound. To explain, the weekly Stochastic RSI is a momentum indicator that measures the relative position of an asset’s current price within its recent price range over a week. When the fast line (blue) crosses above the slow line (orange) in the oversold zone, it signals potential upward momentum, indicating a buying opportunity.

Furthermore, crypto analyst Decode highlighted the importance of Elliott Wave Theory in predicting ETH’s price momentum. The analyst explained: Sentiment on Ethereum is bearish beyond anything I have ever seen, so whilst lower targets are still available, it’s possible we’ve done enough at the 1.236 extension of C vs A to complete this wave 4. The eventual reversal will be the most hated rally ever seen in crypto. That said, rising ETH exchange reserves could delay any quick price recovery. At press time, ETH trades at $1,911, up 0.9% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Unsplash, Charts from X and TradingView.com

Ethereum (ETH) is trading at its lowest levels since late 2023, struggling to regain momentum after an extended period of selling pressure. Since December 2024, ETH has lost over 57% of its value, failing to reclaim key resistance levels. With the broader crypto market facing macroeconomic uncertainty and persistent volatility, Ethereum’s downtrend appears far from over.

Despite the ongoing decline, on-chain data suggests that large investors may be positioning for a recovery. According to CryptoQuant, whales have moved over 130,000 ETH off exchanges in the past week, signaling a growing accumulation trend. This pattern has been developing since Ethereum started trending downward, suggesting that institutional players and long-term holders are buying the dip in anticipation of future price appreciation. While short-term sentiment remains bearish, historical data shows that large whale accumulations often precede strong rebounds once selling pressure fades. However, ETH still faces significant resistance, and bulls must reclaim key levels to confirm a potential trend reversal. With market uncertainty still looming, the next few weeks will be critical in determining Ethereum’s next major move. Ethereum Whale Activity Hints At Optimism Ethereum has been under massive selling pressure, struggling amid macroeconomic uncertainty and trade war fears that have shaken both the crypto market and the U.S. stock market. ETH is now trading below a multi-year support level, which could act as a strong resistance in the coming weeks. If bulls fail to reclaim key price levels, the stage could be set for a deeper correction. However, not all indicators are bearish. Despite the ongoing downtrend, some analysts remain optimistic about Ethereum’s long-term prospects. Top analyst Ali Martinez shared insights on X, revealing that whales have moved over 130,000 ETH off exchanges in the past week. This is significant because large investors typically move their holdings off exchanges when they plan to hold for the long term rather than selling. When whales transfer ETH into private wallets, it often signals accumulation rather than immediate selling pressure. Historically, such trends have preceded market rebounds, as reduced exchange supply can contribute to price stability and future upside potential.

While Ethereum still faces major hurdles, whale activity suggests that smart money is positioning itself for the next move. The next few weeks will be crucial in determining whether ETH can reverse its downward trend or if further declines are ahead. Bulls Fight to Hold Key Levels Ethereum is currently trading at $1,904, struggling to regain momentum after days of consolidation below the $2,000 mark. The ongoing selling pressure has kept ETH under key resistance, making it difficult for bulls to reverse the trend and start a recovery. For Ethereum to regain a bullish outlook, bulls must reclaim the $2,000 level as soon as possible. A sustained push above this resistance would signal strength and could set the stage for a rally toward higher levels, potentially testing $2,250–$2,400 in the coming weeks. However, if ETH loses current levels of demand, the next major liquidity zone sits around $1,600. A breakdown below $1,750 could trigger further sell-offs, leading to an extended bearish phase that could delay any potential recovery.

Bulls will need strong buying pressure to reclaim lost ground and avoid a deeper decline. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

Ethereum (ETH) is now trading below the crucial $2,000 mark, struggling to find momentum after days of selling pressure and consolidation around $1,900. The broader crypto market remains under heavy bearish control, and ETH has lost over 57% of its value, making it increasingly difficult for bulls to stage a recovery. Related Reading: Ethereum Consolidates Since ‘The Big Dump’ – Local Trend Reversal Or Continuation? With Ethereum now below a multi-year support level, this zone could flip into strong resistance, further complicating any potential rebound. The market is in a highly volatile phase, and traders are watching closely for signs of strength or further downside risks. On-chain data highlights two key price levels for Ethereum’s immediate trajectory. $1,870 currently serves as its critical support; meanwhile, $2,050 is now its most challenging resistance, acting as a major barrier that ETH must reclaim to confirm a trend reversal. For now, Ethereum remains vulnerable, with uncertainty driving price action. If bulls fail to defend current support, ETH could see further declines, but a successful reclaim of resistance could spark renewed confidence in the market. The next few days will be crucial in determining ETH’s short-term direction. Ethereum Faces Critical Test As Bulls Struggle To Reclaim $2,000 Ethereum is at a crucial turning point, trading near its lowest level since October 2023 as bears maintain control. After weeks of selling pressure and uncertainty, bulls must reclaim the $2,000 mark as soon as possible to prevent further downside and restore market confidence. Related Reading: Solana Forms Classic Cup-And-Handle Pattern – Analyst Predicts A Breakout To $3,800 The broader macroeconomic landscape remains uncertain, with trade war fears and global financial instability weighing heavily on both crypto and US stock markets. These factors have set the stage for a potential deeper correction, leaving investors on edge. However, some analysts believe a market recovery is still possible in the coming months, particularly if Ethereum can regain key resistance levels. Top analyst Ali Martinez recently shared on-chain metrics, identifying $1,870 as Ethereum’s strongest support level. This means that if ETH breaks below this zone, a further decline could be imminent. On the upside, $2,050 is now Ethereum’s most challenging resistance, acting as a crucial barrier that bulls must overcome. If Ethereum successfully reclaims $2,050, it will signal a strong trend reversal, potentially setting the stage for a powerful recovery rally. The next few trading sessions will be critical, as ETH must either hold its ground or risk further downside, with investors closely monitoring price action. ETH Bulls Must Hold Above $1,900 Ethereum is currently trading at $1,920, following days of consolidation below the crucial $2,000 level. Despite attempts to push higher, bulls have struggled to reclaim lost ground, leaving ETH in a vulnerable position. To confirm a recovery, ETH must break above the $2,000 mark and push beyond the 4-hour 200-moving average (MA) and exponential moving average (EMA) around $2,400. A successful reclaim of these levels would signal renewed buying momentum, potentially setting the stage for a strong rally toward higher resistance zones. However, if Ethereum fails to reclaim these levels, selling pressure could intensify, driving ETH toward lower demand zones around $1,750. A breakdown below this level would put even more pressure on bulls, potentially leading to further downside and extended bearish sentiment.

The next few days will be crucial, as ETH traders watch for a breakout or further downside movement in response to broader market trends. Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView

The cryptocurrency market has witnessed diverging performances between its two largest assets, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). While Bitcoin has shown signs of recovery, gaining 3.8% over the past two weeks and reclaiming the $85,000 price level, Ethereum has struggled to keep up. ETH remains below the $2,000 mark, a level it fell below last week, currently trading just above $1,900. The disparity in performance between Bitcoin and Ethereum has drawn attention from analysts, particularly regarding Ethereum’s declining strength against Bitcoin in the derivatives market. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Consolidates and Eyes Recovery—Is a Bounce Incoming? Ethereum’s Decline Against Bitcoin: Key Market Trends CryptoQuant analyst SunflowrQuant recently analyzed the ETH/BTC market trends, noting that Ethereum has weakened against Bitcoin over the past two years, reflecting a drop in investor confidence and reduced speculative interest in ETH derivatives. According to SunflowrQuant, during the 2021-2022 period, Ethereum outperformed Bitcoin, signaling strong market interest and increasing activity in Ethereum-based derivatives at the time. However, since then, the ETH/BTC ratio and open interest have both declined, suggesting that Ethereum has been losing ground against Bitcoin in terms of market dominance. By March 2025, the open interest ratio of ETH futures had fallen to 0.15, while the ETH/BTC price ratio dropped to 0.02. This indicates that the bearish sentiment around Ethereum continues to dominate the market, as traders and investors shift their focus toward Bitcoin. The declining open interest in Ethereum perpetual futures contracts further reinforces the idea that traders are showing less speculative interest in ETH compared to BTC. What This Means for ETH’s Future Despite ETH’s underperformance, SunflowrQuant suggests that its current weakness may also reflect broader market fear and uncertainty. The analyst points out that crypto markets are often driven by emotions, and when sentiment reaches an extreme low, a rapid recovery could follow. Related Reading: This Ethereum Monthly RSI Chart Just Crashed To New Lows To Break 2022 Records, What Happened Last Time? Such low-liquidity conditions may lead to unexpected price movements, creating opportunities for ETH to regain strength in the ETH/BTC ratio. Historically, market downturns have been followed by periods of strong recovery, and Ethereum’s fundamentals remain intact. The analyst wrote: Emotional fluctuations and market fear could lead investors to act more cautiously and strategically. We may be at the foundations of new beginnings for Ethereum; just like in previous cycles, after tough times, a strong rebound may occur, reaching new highs. If investor confidence returns, ETH could potentially reverse its trend, similar to how it performed against Bitcoin in 2021-2022. However, this will likely depend on broader market dynamics, including institutional adoption, ETH’s network upgrades, and Bitcoin’s price stability. SunflowrQuant concluded: Looking at the price fluctuations in Ethereum, now could be the perfect time to be part of this transformative process. We are at the bottom of potential new beginnings and opportunities for ETH. Featured image created with DALL=E, Chart from TradingView

A new technical analysis suggests that the crypto market, which includes altcoins like Ethereum (ETH) and Dogecoin (DOGE), is about to experience a major altcoin season that could last 217 days. If critical support levels are maintained, the analyst suggests that we may finally see the long-anticipated altcoin season.  Ethereum And Dogecoin To See An Altcoin Season Soon Sporia, a TradingView crypto analyst, has shared a detailed technical analysis of the altcoin market. The analysis highlights key indicators within the Total2 chart, which represents the total crypto market cap excluding Bitcoin. The market expert emphasizes the importance of holding a critical support level, noting that the highly anticipated altcoin season could finally begin if this zone is maintained.  Related Reading: Crypto Pundit Says Ethereum Price Is ‘Destined’ To Reach $10,000 This Cycle, Here’s Why Notably, top cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and Dogecoin could benefit from this market shift into an altcoin season. The analyst also noted that current market conditions coincide with Fibonacci time sequences, which may signal an inflection point for altcoin prices. Sporia shared a price chart, describing it as his secret weapon in determining bottom signals for altcoins. Since 2022, the chart has indicated a significant bottom each time the market encountered resistance at a crucial point. As of this week, the chart has recorded a bottom, marking the fourth hit around the critical resistance zone.  The analyst has expressed excitement about this trend, solidifying his confidence in a strong altcoin season. He further underscores that the alignment of events, including key support line formations during the week of the Fibonacci time sequences, indicates the heightened possibility of a major market shift.  While tracking Fibonacci-based time cycles, Sporia revealed that the first two hits did not trigger any major events, but the third hit at the 2.618 level led to a significant pivot. Currently, this fourth hit at the 3.618 level coincides with the August 2024 altcoin crash, which mirrored the COVID crash in the last cycle. This suggests a 50% accuracy rate for the current Fibonacci sequence, making it an ideal target to watch for a potential bottom and pivot.  Altcoin Market Bull Rally To Last Only 217 Days  Diving further into his analysis, Sporia predicts that the altcoin market could rally for 217 days, peaking by October 13, 2025, roughly 20 to 30 days after Bitcoin reaches its projected cycle top. He argues that, historically, Bitcoin has always hit a cycle top before altcoins.  Related Reading: Altcoins Season: Recent Crypto Dip Shows Decline May Be Over And Bulls Are Taking Charge In 2021, Bitcoin peaked in April, and the altcoin market topped 28 days later. Similarly, in 2017, Bitcoin reached the top of the market, and altcoins followed 22 days later. For this market cycle, Sporia projects that Bitcoin will hit its highest point by mid-September after a typical 1,050-day cycle from its previous market bottom.  Notably, the analyst revealed that the last time the altcoin market hit the 3.618 Fib level, its total market capitalization surged to $5 trillion. Overall, Sporia has indicated a 99% surety that the altcoin market will bottom so long as the key diagonal support holds. If it does, he highlights that the market should expect a V-shaped recovery and an uptrend lasting for 217 days. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from Tradingview.com

Ethereum (ETH) has been stuck in a tight range, trading below $1,900 and above $1,750 after days of heavy selling pressure. The broader crypto market remains under stress, with fear dominating sentiment and keeping ETH from regaining momentum. Related Reading: Dogecoin Network Activity Surges 47% In A Month – What’s Next for DOGE? The downturn is largely driven by macroeconomic uncertainty and escalating trade war fears, which have shaken both crypto and the U.S. stock markets. As investors brace for further volatility, some fear that the market is setting up for a deeper correction. However, not all analysts are bearish. Some believe that a recovery could be on the horizon in the coming months, especially if technical indicators begin to show strength. Top analyst Daan shared insights on X, revealing that Ethereum has been consolidating since the major sell-off and has formed a falling wedge pattern—a bullish formation that could indicate a local trend reversal. For now, ETH remains at risk of further declines, but if this pattern plays out, Ethereum could soon break out of its consolidation range and start building momentum for a recovery. The next few weeks will be crucial in determining whether ETH can stabilize or if more downside is ahead. Ethereum Falling Wedge Could Signal a Reversal Ethereum has lost over 57% of its value, creating a challenging environment for bulls as selling pressure continues. ETH is now trading below a multi-year support level, which has flipped into strong resistance. As long as Ethereum remains below the $1,900–$2,000 range, bulls will struggle to regain momentum, keeping bearish sentiment intact. The entire crypto market has mirrored this weakness, experiencing a significant breakdown alongside the U.S. stock market. Global trade war fears and uncertainty surrounding U.S. President Trump’s policies have further fueled the sell-off in risk assets. Since the U.S. elections in November 2024, macroeconomic volatility and rising uncertainty have driven markets lower. With the U.S. stock market hitting its lowest levels since September 2024, investors remain on edge, questioning if Ethereum has further downside ahead. Despite this bleak outlook, there is some optimism. Daan’s insights suggest that Ethereum has been consolidating since the major drop and has formed a falling wedge pattern. This bullish formation could lead to a local trend reversal if ETH breaks out and holds above resistance. For this potential recovery to materialize, ETH must break above the white zone and reclaim $2,000. If this happens, bulls could start testing higher levels and build momentum for a broader market recovery. However, the ETH/BTC ratio remains near multi-year lows, showing only minor resilience in recent days. Sustained strength is needed before a real reversal can take place. Related Reading: Ethereum Net Taker Volume Signals Huge Selling Pressure – Can Bulls Hold Key Levels? With Ethereum still struggling, the next few weeks will be crucial in determining whether this falling wedge breakout can lead to a meaningful rally or if the downtrend will continue. Bulls Struggle Around $1,900  Ethereum is currently trading at $1,900, after days of struggling below the crucial $2,000 mark. Bulls have lost control, and ETH is now at its lowest levels since October 2023, reflecting the broader market uncertainty and ongoing bearish sentiment. With macroeconomic volatility and trade war fears weighing heavily on risk assets, Ethereum continues to face selling pressure, making it difficult for bulls to build momentum for a recovery. The longer ETH stays below $2,000, the stronger the resistance at this level becomes, pushing buyers further out of the market. For Ethereum to avoid deeper losses, bulls must reclaim the $2,000 mark as soon as possible and establish it as a new support level. A break and hold above this threshold could trigger a recovery rally, allowing ETH to test higher resistance zones. However, losing current levels would leave ETH vulnerable to another drop, potentially retesting support near $1,750 or lower. Related Reading: Bitcoin Lost And Retested The 200-Day MA As Resistance – Here’s What Happened Last Time The next few days will be critical, as bulls need to step in and defend current demand to prevent further downside.

Crypto analyst The Cryptagon has raised the possibility of the Ethereum price mirroring Bitcoin’s 2018 to 2021 cycle, which he indicated was bullish ETH. This development comes amid record selling among ETH investors, which continues to exert downward pressure on the crypto.  Ethereum Could Be Mirroring Bitcoin’s 2018-2021 Cycle  In a TradingView post, the Cryptagon stated that Ethereum has been repeating Bitcoin’s 2018 to 2021 cycle very closely. He remarked that ETH’s long-term holders may remain bullish just by looking at this BTC cycle, seeing as ETH could achieve a similar end result like the flagship witnessed in that cycle.  Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Publishes Insanely Bullish Report For Ethereum, Here Are The Facts The analyst admitted that Ethereum has been under heavy pressure since early December last year and almost touched the 12-month falling support this week. However, despite this development, the Cryptagon suggested that this is not the time to be bearish on ETH, as it could still reach new highs as it mirrors Bitcoin’s 2021 cycle.  He noted that in the 2021 cycle, a rebound on the falling support caused a massive breakout above the falling resistance and the Bitcoin price rallied to the 1.618 Fibonacci extension. In line with this, the Cryptagon predicted that Ethereum could at least reach $8,000 in this market cycle as it repeats a similar price action.  This bullish outlook for Ethereum comes amid record selling, which threatens any bullish reversal for ETH. In an X post, Cryptoquant founder Ki Young Ju revealed that Ethereum has faced record active selling over the past three months.  This has contributed to ETH’s underperformance, with the altcoin being outperformed by other major altcoins like XRP and Solana over this period. While XRP touched its current all-time high (ATH) and SOL hit a new ATH, ETH has yet to come anywhere close to its current ATH.  The Most Important Price Level For ETH At The Moment In an X post, crypto analyst Ali Martinez, revealed that $1,887 is the most important support level for Ethereum at the moment. At this level, investors bought 1.63 million ETH. A drop below this level could lead to another massive crash for the second-largest crypto by market cap, with many of these investors possibly selling off their coins in order to cut their losses.  Related Reading: Analyst Says You’ll Regret Not Buying Ethereum At These Prices, Here’s Where It’s Headed Martinez has already raised the possibility of Ethereum crashing to as low as $800. He noted that the $4,000 price level had been holding a strong horizontal resistance trendline. However, ETH recently broke out of this trendline, which has significantly increased the probability of a 70% price drop to this $800 target.  At the time of writing, the Ethereum price is trading at around $1,893, up over 1% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Ethereum price started a recovery wave above the $1,820 zone. ETH is now consolidating and facing hurdles near the $1,950 resistance. Ethereum started a recovery wave above the $1,820 level. The price is trading below $1,920 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a short-term bearish trend line forming with resistance at $1,900 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken). The pair must clear the $1,900 and $1,950 resistance levels to start a decent increase. Ethereum Price Faces Resistance Ethereum price formed a base above the $1,760 level and started a recovery wave, like Bitcoin. ETH was able to clear the $1,820 and $1,850 resistance levels. The bulls pushed the price above the $1,920 level. There was a move above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward wave from the $2,150 swing high to the $1,752 low. However, the bears seem to be active near the $1,950 resistance zone. Ethereum price is now trading below $1,920 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $1,900 level. There is also a short-term bearish trend line forming with resistance at $1,900 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The next key resistance is near the $1,950 level or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward wave from the $2,150 swing high to the $1,752 low. The first major resistance is near the $1,990 level. A clear move above the $1,990 resistance might send the price toward the $2,050 resistance. An upside break above the $2,050 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,120 resistance zone or even $2,250 in the near term. Another Drop In ETH? If Ethereum fails to clear the $1,950 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $1,845 level. The first major support sits near the $1,800 zone. A clear move below the $1,800 support might push the price toward the $1,750 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $1,720 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $1,650.

Ethereum (ETH) is facing significant selling pressure, trading below the $1,900 mark as market uncertainty continues to weigh on price action. After losing the critical $2,000 level, ETH plunged as low as $1,750, marking its lowest point since October 2023. Bulls are now under pressure, as they must defend the current demand zone to prevent further downside and restore investor confidence. Related Reading: Bitcoin Lost And Retested The 200-Day MA As Resistance – Here’s What Happened Last Time Market conditions remain fragile, with Ethereum struggling to find strong buying interest. If bulls fail to hold current support levels, ETH could see further declines, adding to the bearish sentiment that has dominated the market in recent weeks. On-chain data from CryptoQuant reveals that Ethereum’s Net Taker Volume remains at a low level, indicating that selling pressure is still strong. This suggests that market participants are leaning bearish, with more sell orders than buy orders dominating Ethereum’s price action. With ETH trading in a vulnerable position, the next few days will be crucial. If bulls can stabilize the price and push ETH back above $1,900, a potential recovery could begin. However, if selling pressure persists, Ethereum may continue its downward trend, testing lower support levels in the coming weeks. Ethereum Faces Heavy Selling Pressure Ethereum has lost over 57% of its value, creating an extremely difficult environment for bulls as the market remains in a deep downtrend. Currently, ETH is trading below a multi-year support level, which has now turned into a strong resistance zone. As ETH struggles to break back above the $1,900–$2,000 range, the bearish trend continues, with bulls failing to regain momentum. Related Reading: New ONDO Addresses Surge 390% In 24 Hours – A Sign Of Growing Interest In Ondo Finance The entire crypto market has suffered a breakdown, mirroring weakness in the U.S. stock market, as global trade war fears and growing uncertainty surrounding U.S. President Trump’s policies shake investor confidence. Since the U.S. elections in November 2024, macroeconomic volatility and uncertainty have been the dominant forces in driving markets lower. With no clear resolution in sight, investors remain cautious, as the U.S. stock market has now reached its lowest levels since September 2024. Top analyst Quinten Francois shared data on X, revealing that Ethereum’s Net Taker Volume is at historic lows, signaling intense selling pressure. This indicates that sellers continue to dominate the market, preventing ETH from staging any meaningful recovery. Until buyers step in with strong demand, ETH may remain stuck in a bearish phase, with further downside risk if key support levels fail. With Ethereum struggling below critical resistance and selling pressure increasing, the next few weeks will be pivotal in determining whether ETH can stabilize or if the market will see further losses. If bulls cannot reclaim lost ground, Ethereum could face even deeper corrections in the near term. ETH Stuck In Range As Bulls Fight to Reclaim $2,000 Ethereum is currently trading at $1,880, remaining range-bound between $1,750 and $1,950 since last Monday. This tight trading range has kept ETH in a consolidation phase, with neither bulls nor bears gaining full control over price action. For Ethereum to start a recovery rally, bulls must push the price back above $2,000 as soon as possible. A break and close above this psychological level would indicate renewed buying momentum, allowing ETH to potentially test higher resistance levels. However, Ethereum remains in a fragile position, as selling pressure continues to weigh on the market. If ETH fails to hold its current levels and breaks below $1,750, it could result in a steady continuation of the downtrend, with further downside risks emerging. Bears would likely target lower support zones, extending the bearish phase and delaying any chance of a sustained recovery. Related Reading: Bitcoin Drops Below 200-Day MA – Next Key Support Lies At $66K According To Mayer Multiple With uncertainty still dominating the market, traders are closely watching whether Ethereum can break out of this range or if it will extend its decline, following the broader market’s risk-off sentiment.
