THE LATEST CRYPTO NEWS

BitMEX co-founder and crypto investor, Arthur Hayes, has outlined the key catalysts that could drive the Ethereum price to a $10,000 all-time high by year-end. In a detailed market analysis, Hayes explains how expanding US credit policies, growing institutional interests, and a shift toward wartime economic strategies could create the ideal conditions for a major ETH price rally.  Ethereum Price Set To Hit $10,000 By Year End On July 23, Hayes published an in-depth report on Substack, analyzing geopolitical trends and how they could create the ideal conditions for a major Ethereum price surge. The crypto founder has set a bold target of $10,000 for ETH by the end of 2025, attributing the future rally to macroeconomic shifts and increasing institutional appetite.  Related Reading: This Ethereum Descending Broadening Wedge Pattern Looks Similar To 2019-2020, Here’s What Happened Last Time Hayes believes that as the US leans further into wartime economic policies under President Donald Trump’s reign, a wave of credit expansion could be unleashed—fueling “asset bubbles,” particularly in crypto. According to the BitMEX co-founder, Ethereum could benefit most from this environment.  While Bitcoin remains the crypto reserve asset, Hayes notes that ETH has been largely overlooked since Solana’s explosive rebound post-FTX. However, he asserts that the tides are turning, especially among Western institutional investors who are starting to favor Ethereum-based assets. The crypto founder pointed to growing confidence in Ethereum from financial influencers like Tom Lee and a renewed interest in DeFi ecosystems as early signs of a potential breakout.  Hayes’ venture capital firm, Maelstrom, is now also fully committed to ETH and the broader ERC-20 ecosystem. He has declared that the next ”Ether bull run” is imminent, forecasting a 176.3% rise from ETH’s current price of $3,619. Alongside his $10,000 Ethereum target, the crypto founder projected that Bitcoin could skyrocket to $250,000 before the end of the year.  ETH Rally Tied To US Economic And Wartime Developments In his report, Hayes seemingly connects Ethereum’s upside potential to a broader macroeconomic narrative rooted in fiscal policy and geopolitical conflict. He argues that the US is shifting toward a form of state-sponsored capitalism or economic fascism designed to fuel wartime production. Related Reading: Ethereum ATH Above $4,800? Here’s How High It Will Go If 2021 Repeats According to the crypto founder, this strategy encourages banks to lend freely to companies without government-guaranteed profits. He noted that when the fiat supply increases without a corresponding rise in raw materials or labor, inflation becomes unavoidable. To manage this, he suggests the government may need to blow bubbles in non-essential assets like crypto, to absorb excess credit without destabilizing essentials like food or housing.  Furthermore, Hayes believes that just as Ethereum stands to benefit from this environment, stablecoins may play a key role in building it. As the crypto market cap grows, so does the amount stored in stablecoins, most of which are reinvested into US Treasury bills. For instance, if the market cap of crypto hits $100 trillion by 2026, the BitMEX co-founder predicts that stablecoins could indirectly fund trillions in government debt, ultimately making crypto an integral player in sustaining wartime fiscal policies.

Crypto analyst Crypto Bullet has alluded to a technical pattern for Ethereum, which mirrors its 2019/2020 price action. Based on the similarities, the analyst gave a breakdown of what to expect from ETH in the coming months.  Ethereum Shows Descending Broadening Pattern In an X post, Crypto Bullet stated that Ethereum has shown an impressive recovery and is now starting to resemble a Descending Broadening Wedge pattern. He further noted that this pattern is almost identical to the one which ETH had between 2019 and 2020. The analyst added that the picture looks very bullish right now. Between 2019 and 2020, when this pattern emerged, the altcoin rallied from around $180 to $700 in just six months.  Related Reading: Ethereum Maxi Compares Bitcoin To Outdated Landlines, Reveals Why ETH Is Better Further commenting on the current Ethereum price action, Crypto Bullet revealed that the altcoin is testing the resistance at around $3,700 for the third time. He believes that ETH will eventually break out from this range. However, the analyst warned that there may be a 10 to 15% pullback around that area before that.  Meanwhile, Crypto Bullet assured that Ethereum will rally hard once it breaks out from this formidable resistance. He predicts that this breakout will lead to a new all-time high (ATH) for ETH, meaning the altcoin is likely to reach $4,900 on the next uptrend. The analyst also stated that the cycle top target for ETH is between $8,000 and $10,000.  Crypto analyst Mikybull Crypto is also confident that Ethereum can reach $10,000 before this market cycle ends. In an X post, he stated that the euphoria stage will start when ETH breaks a new all-time high (ATH). He indicated that the break above ATH will spark a rally to between $7,000 and $10,000. Once that happens, the analyst believes that a massive bear market will ensue.  ETH Is Yet To Enter The Banana Zone In an X post, crypto analyst Ted stated that Ethereum is yet to enter the banana zone. He noted that right now, the altcoin is going through a correction after pulling a 70% rally from its April 2025 lows. The analyst further opined that there will be some sideways accumulation before ETH breaks above $4,100.  Related Reading: Ethereum’s Breakout Above The MA50 Suggests Further Upside, Here’s The Target However, once that happens, he predicts that Ethereum will record the “most violent rally.” His accompanying chart showed that ETH could rally to a new ATH of around $7,000 on the first leg up. Based on the chart, Ted also believes that the altcoin could reach $14,000, $41,000, and $92,000 at some point.  At the time of writing, the Ethereum price is trading at around $3,563, down over 4% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

After hitting above $3,800, the Ethereum price seems well on track for the next phase of the cycle. The ongoing trend has been closely mirroring what was seen back in 2016-2017 before the surge that sent the altcoin’s price to new all-time highs. This remains a major deal given that if the trend does play out similarly to what was seen in the 2017 cycle, then it means that the Ethereum price rally is only just beginning. Ethereum Price Mirrors Bullish 2017 Back in 2017, before the bull market, the Ethereum price had struggled to stay on track with the Bitcoin price. This resulted in a lag as the price kept taking a beating with each uptrend. In the end, the Ethereum price ended up ranging for a while, with two fakeouts before the price was able to eventually breakout. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts Explosive 126% Shiba Inu Rally After SHIB Surpasses Litecoin Market Cap Similarly, the Ethereum price has ranged for the last year, with multiple fakeouts that have already kept the price low. Just like 2017, again, a crash sent the altcoin’s price down by almost 50% to create what seemed to be the perfect bear trap, as illustrated in this chart by crypto analyst Merlijn The Trader on X (formerly Twitter). The analyst points out these similarities in the Ethereum chart, showing that the same range, fakeout, and breakout have now played out for the cryptocurrency just like they did in 2016-2017. Given this, it is likely that the next phase in the trend will also follow the 2017 playbook. After the bear trap and eventual breakout in 2017, the Ethereum price had rallied by 5,000%, going from under $8 to over $250 in less than one year. Applying a similar breakout structure to Ethereum in 2025 would mean rising as high as $40,000. However, adjusting for how high the market cap currently is, a conservative target would mean that the Ethereum price is at least able to cross the $10,000 level, which would be only a 200% increase from its current level. Applying the same timeframe as in 2017 would mean that it could play out in the next six months.

Presently, Ethereum is quickly becoming a favorite among institutional investors as ETH treasury companies have poured over $7 billion into the altcoin, according to data from The Block. In July 2025 alone, over $2 billion has flowed into Spot Ethereum ETFs, showing a ramp-up in institutionalized interest. Due to this rise in institutional investments, Merlijn The Trader has explained that institutions are now the ones behind the wheel with the same setup from 2017. This suggests higher liquidity as these major players are expected to drive and determine the ETH price this cycle. Featured image from Pixabay, chart from TradingView.com

Ethereum price started a downside correction from the $3,850 zone. ETH is now moving lower but might find bids near the $3,520 support zone. Ethereum started a downside correction below the $3,770 level. The price is trading below $3,680 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a key bearish trend line forming with resistance at $3,670 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken). The pair could start a fresh increase if it remains supported above the $3,550 zone in the near term. Ethereum Price Holds Support Ethereum price failed to extend gains above the $3,850 level and started a downside correction, like Bitcoin. ETH price traded below the $3,800 and $3,770 support levels. There was a move below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,480 swing low to the $3,859 high. The decline was such that the price even dived below the $3,660 level and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. However, the bulls were active near the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,480 swing low to the $3,859 high. Ethereum price is now trading below $3,680 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price could face resistance near the $3,670 level. There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance at $3,670 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The next key resistance is near the $3,770 level. The first major resistance is near the $3,800 level. A clear move above the $3,800 resistance might send the price toward the $3,850 resistance. An upside break above the $3,850 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $4,000 resistance zone or even $4,200 in the near term. Another Decline In ETH? If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,670 resistance, it could start a downside correction. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,600 level. The first major support sits near the $3,570 zone. A clear move below the $3,570 support might push the price toward the $3,520 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $3,450 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $3,320. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for ETH/USD is losing momentum in the bearish zone. Hourly RSI – The RSI for ETH/USD is now below the 50 zone. Major Support Level – $3,520 Major Resistance Level – $3,670

Crypto analyst Xanrox has declared that the Ethereum price is on the brink of recording a parabolic rally to $5,500, a new all-time high (ATH). He also outlined factors that could drive the ETH rally to this target.  Ethereum Price Eyes Rally To $5,500 In The Short Term In a TradingView post, Xanrox predicted that the Ethereum price could rally to $5,500 in the short term because banks and states are buying. He also claimed that ETH is part of the USA crypto reserve, which is bullish for the altcoin. Meanwhile, the analyst also alluded to the Ethereum ETFs, as another factor that could drive demand for ETH.  Related Reading: Ethereum ATH Above $4,800? Here’s How High It Will Go If 2021 Repeats According to him, these institutional investors count ETH as the future of the crypto industry, which is a positive for the Ethereum price. These institutional investors have recently been warming up to ETH amid optimism that these funds could soon include a staking feature following the SEC’s approval. For the first time last week, these funds beat the Bitcoin ETFs in daily flows. Xanrox is also bullish on the Ethereum price from a technical analysis perspective. He noted that the altcoin is currently inside an ascending channel and breaking out with strong bullish momentum. The analyst also indicated that this was still a good time to buy ETH despite how much it has rallied this month, reaching a six-month high.  He claimed that the Ethereum price is somewhere in the middle. As such, those who buy now can get to sell when ETH reaches $5,500. Xanrox added that the $5,500 level is likely where the altcoin will consolidate for a long time before going higher. Interestingly, his accompanying chart showed that Ethereum could even rally to as high as $113,000 at some point.  A Demand Shock Is Coming For ETH In an X post, Bitwise Chief Investment Officer (CIO) Matt Hougan declared that a demand shock is coming for ETH, which is why he predicts that the Ethereum price will continue to rally. He noted that the altcoin is up over 50% in the past month and more than 150% since its lows in April, thanks to overwhelming demand from ETFs and corporate treasuries.  Related Reading: Ethereum Road To $10,000: Replay Of May’s Playbook Predicts Another Breakout Matt Hougan expects this demand to keep rising. He noted that ETF investors remain significantly underweight in terms of their ETH-to-BTC holdings ratio. The market expert further stated that although ETH’s market cap is about 19% the size of BTC, the Ethereum funds have amassed less than 12% of the assets that the Bitcoin ETFs hold. As such, he expects these investors to allocate more ETH, which is bullish for the Ethereum price.  The Bitwise CIO predicted that Ethereum ETFs and treasury companies could purchase up to $20 billion of ETH in the next year, equivalent to 5.33 million ETH at today’s prices. Meanwhile, the Ethereum network is expected to produce around 800,000 ETH over the same period, resulting in demand that is seven times greater than supply.  At the time of writing, the Ethereum price is trading at around $3,700, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Ethereum is approaching a pivotal juncture that could define its next major move. After weeks of impressive recovery, the chart is now flashing a familiar and powerful pattern — one that echoes the 2019–2020 breakout structure. With ETH pressing against a long-standing resistance line for the third time, a potential breakout could spark a massive rally. However, as momentum builds, a brief pullback may still be on the cards before the bulls take full control. Ethereum Poised For A Massive Move Crypto analyst CryptoBullet has spotted something interesting on Ethereum’s weekly chart. In his post, the expert notes that ETH is displaying a strong recovery and forming what appears to be a Descending Broadening Wedge, a rare yet historically bullish pattern. According to CryptoBullet, this setup bears a striking resemblance to what occurred between 2019 and 2020, just before Ethereum embarked on a massive run. Related Reading: Ethereum’s Breakout Above The MA50 Suggests Further Upside, Here’s The Target CryptoBullet emphasizes that the current price action is looking very bullish. He points out that Ethereum is now testing the wedge resistance for the third time, which typically increases the chances of a breakout.  Despite the optimism, CryptoBullet remains realistic about near-term volatility. He suggests that Ethereum could face a brief 10–15% pullback near the current resistance zone. Such a move would be healthy and could offer a final shakeout before liftoff. If ETH manages to break above this key resistance, CryptoBullet believes it would confirm the bullish pattern and open the door to a significant rally. In that scenario, he believes a new all-time high is almost inevitable. Short-Term Pullback Possible—But The Bigger Trend Remains Intact According to Andrew Crypto in a recent post, Ethereum has shown exceptional strength over the past few weeks, pushing through key levels and maintaining bullish momentum. While this kind of rally is exciting, markets rarely move up in a straight line without occasional corrections. Healthy trends often include pullbacks that allow momentum to reset and provide stronger support for the next leg up. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Breaks Through 50EMA After Rejection, ETH Dominance Sees Resurgence Andrew pointed out that ETH recently got rejected from a local supply zone, which could act as a short-term ceiling. However, this rejection toward the Yearly Open (YO) level, positioned at $3,335, would be a logical and healthy move. A retest of this level could serve as a launching pad for the next rally, especially if buyers step in with conviction.  While Andrew clarified that a correction isn’t guaranteed, he mentioned that he wouldn’t be surprised if it happens. In his view, such a dip shouldn’t be feared but rather seen as a potential opportunity, especially for those who missed out on the initial run. A well-timed pullback could restore balance to the chart and bolster Ethereum’s price. Featured image from Pixabay, chart from Tradingview.com

The global crypto fund world saw another banner week as investors piled in. According to CoinShares data, net inflows into digital‑asset products jumped to $4.40 billion—beating the prior record of $4.27 billion set after the 2024 US elections. Related Reading: Too Pricey? Expert Says XRP Beats Bitcoin And Ethereum Right Now It was the 14th straight week of positive flows, lifting year‑to‑date inflows to $27 billion and driving total assets under management to a fresh high of $220 billion. Trading also heated up: exchange‑traded product turnover hit nearly $40 billion in a single week, underscoring a surge in both interest and liquidity. Record Inflows Hit New High Last week’s $4.40 billion haul wasn’t just a marginal uptick. It smashed the old record by $120 million. Investors have now pumped capital into these funds every week since early April, showing a clear shift toward digital assets as part of broader portfolios. Last week digital asset products saw all-time high weekly inflows of US$4.39bn, bringing YTD inflows to US$27bn, pushing AuM to a record US$220bn. Ethereum attracted a record US$2.12bn in inflows, while Bitcoin saw inflows of US$2.2bn. https://t.co/y32mEP8Oa2 — Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain) July 21, 2025 Total AUM of $220 billion means these products now rival many traditional asset classes in sheer scale. And with $39 billion in weekly turnover, bid‑ask spreads are likely tighter—making it easier for big players to move in and out without major price swings. Ethereum Leads The Charge Based on reports, Ethereum was the standout draw. It pulled in a little over $2 billion—nearly double its previous weekly high of $1.2 billion. Over the past week, ether climbed 24.5%, briefly topping $3,800 for the first time in more than seven months. That price pop clearly caught buyers’ eyes. Bitcoin stayed strong too, with $2 billion in inflows, even if that was down from $2.7 billion the week before. Notably, ETPs made up 55% of Bitcoin’s total exchange volume, signaling that institutions are hunting exposure via these regulated vehicles.

Switzerland contributed $47 million, Australia $17 million, and Hong Kong $14 million. Meanwhile, Brazil and Germany experienced minor outflows of $28 million and $15 million as domestic investors booked profits or changed strategy. The sheer magnitude of US demand is evidence of both regulatory certainty regarding spot crypto ETFs and increasing comfort on the part of asset managers to apply those products.

Ethereum is once again in the spotlight as institutional capital continues to flood into the market at an unprecedented pace. This surge in demand reflects institutional investors who are increasingly viewing ETH as a valuable asset. Ethereum Turns Heads As Inflows Accelerate According to Axel Gaubert’s post on X, ETH is pumping hard after $2.77 billion was added to BlackRock’s Ethereum ETF (ETHA). This signals immense institutional appetite for the asset and underscores growing confidence in Ethereum’s role as both a financial instrument and a foundational layer for decentralized applications. Related Reading: Crypto Founder Pushes Ethereum As ‘World Reserve Asset’ – Details Gaubert notes that the inflows reflect mainstream validation, but create questions around Satoshi’s philosophy. The core ideals of decentralization and independence from traditional finance are being tested as legacy institutions like BlackRock move in, and Ethereum is a very opinionated blockchain. The fact that BlackRock can now build on Ethereum and accumulate ETH at scale reflects Ethereum’s core philosophy, open access, programmable money, and institutional-grade architecture. Ethereum continues to make history as institutional interest surges to unprecedented levels. In the past week, spot Ethereum ETFs saw $2.18 billion in net inflows last week, which is the highest weekly inflow the products have ever recorded. This surge underscores the growing confidence institutional investors have in Ethereum’s long-term value, particularly as regulatory clarity improves and ETH cements its place as a core layer of infrastructure. Over 20% Weekly Gains Signal Strong Market Momentum As mentioned by Vincent on X, Ethereum has gained momentum, and trading between $3,100 and $3,600 at the time of the post, reflecting a 20% rally within a week. This surge is fueled by strong inflows into spot ETH ETFs and rising institutional demand, both of which are acting as major tailwinds for the asset. Related Reading: Ethereum Boom Or Bust? Daniel Yan Sounds Alarm On SBET The ETF data has confirmed rising interest, and shows over $2.1 billion flowed into spot ETFs last week. This surge marks one of the largest weekly inflows for ETH ETFs, reflecting a broader trend of capital rotation toward crypto contract platforms. BlackRock Ethereum Trust (ETHA) now holds an impressive $9.17 billion in assets, which is nearly half of all capital invested across Ethereum ETFs. Furthermore, the Regulatory developments are supportive. The recent GENIUS Act tightens Stablecoin oversight while reinforcing trust in ETH settlement infrastructure. This dual effect positions ETH as a more credible and robust network for institutional activity. ETH currently secures $76 billion in DeFi TVL and $128 billion in Stablecoin supply. On-chain signals show strength as Staking participation continues to rise, a sign of long-term confidence among holders. The futures open interest has reached a record of $51 billion. This reflects deep institutional engagement. Meanwhile, ETH supply is deflationary due to burns and staking. Finally, Vincent sees $4,000 ETH as the next resistance level and stated that May’s Pectra upgrade will improve smart accounts, staking UX, and L2 integration, which are bullish for utility and scalability.

In 2025, many first‑time crypto buyers could be hunting for an affordable entry point. Bitcoin is near $120,000 and Ethereum trades above $3,500. At around $3.60, XRP looks easier on the wallet yet still sits third in market cap. That sweet spot of price and reputation has caught the eye of retail investors. Related Reading: Not Even Bitcoin Is Safe: Kiyosaki Warns Of Massive Market Collapse Retail Investors Priced Out According to EasyA co‑founder Dom Kwok, the high cost of Bitcoin and Ethereum is pushing newcomers toward cheaper tokens. He says that when a single Bitcoin hits six figures, it feels out of reach. XRP, by comparison, offers big‑league standing without the sticker shock. That mix of affordability and credibility is drawing a wave of small buyers. Based on reports from past crypto cycles, tokens with low unit prices tend to grab attention. It can be remembered that Shiba Inu used to trade at roughly $0.00000000001.

XRP stands apart because it actually moves money across borders quickly and cheaply. That real‑world use adds a layer of trust missing in many meme coins. Mixed Signals From Legal Battle According to updates on Ripple’s US lawsuit, the final court ruling could swing sentiment dramatically. A win for Ripple might cement XRP’s appeal and keep retail flows strong. A loss could spook buyers and send prices tumbling. Retail investors are quick to react when legal clouds clear one way or the other. Holder Base Dominated By Small Players Based on the XRP Rich List, nearly 6.7 million wallets hold the token today. Of those, about 5.7 million belong to retail investors—accounts with under 1,000 XRP. Within that group, close to 3  million wallets have between 0 and 20 tokens, while 2.52 million wallets carry between 20 and 500. This broad distribution shows that everyday buyers have already jumped in, rather than just big institutions. According to several market watchers, excitement in the XRP community is palpable. Analysts predicted more XRP millionaires than Bitcoin millionaires. Many holders believe the token is still in its early days despite its 2012 debut. Critics warn that runaway optimism can reverse fast if the broader market cools down.

For now, though, XRP’s $3.55 price tag and large‑cap status have made it the token to watch for many first‑timers seeking their first crypto win.

Over the past week, the Ethereum (ETH) market recorded a solid positive price performance, reaching as high as $3,600. Notably, the second-largest cryptocurrency, among many altcoins, is experiencing a strong bullish momentum as evidenced by price gains of 45.48% over the last month. Amid the present market euphoria, Dutch market analyst Gert Van Lagen has backed Ethereum’s chances for sustained price gain based on an Elliott wave analysis. Related Reading: Ethereum’s Rally Isn’t What It Seems — Here’s What’s Really Driving It Ethereum To Complete Bull Market Cycle On High Note – Analyst The Elliot wave theory is a technical framework used to predict price targets by identifying repetitive patterns in price movements driven by investor psychology. In an X post on July 18, Van Lagen explains that this price forecast framework indicates that Ethereum may be entering the final phase of its bull market cycle, with a potential price target of $10,000. According to the analyst, the ETH bi-weekly trading chart suggests the cryptocurrency is completing a textbook five-wave cycle that began in 2022, with the fifth and final wave now unfolding in the form of an expanding diagonal. For context, the Elliot wave theory identifies a single price cycle in five waves, each composed of subwaves abc. As seen in the chart above, this includes the wave I marked by an initial impulse rally, followed by a sharp corrective Wave II as seen between 2022 and 2023. Wave III is defined by explosive momentum, pushing Ethereum to new highs, before entering a lengthy Wave IV consolidation characterized by a flat correction. Finally, there is wave V, i.e., the current status of the market, which is usually a final price surge. After breaking out of the upper boundary of the Wave 3–4, Gert Lagen explains that Ethereum is about completing subwave a of wave V following its most recent price gains. Therefore, investors should expect a brief pullback to retest the breakout zone, which would complete subwave ‘b’. After that, a blow-off rally forming subwave ‘c’ is on the cards, i.e., a price move that could push Ethereum to the $10,000 mark based on a broader Elliott wave analysis on the Ethereum bull market stretching from 2019 to date.

However, daily trading volume has dropped by 46.03%, signaling a potential weakening in the bullish momentum behind the current price surge. Following its most recent gain, the altcoin continues to retain its position as the second-largest cryptocurrency with a market cap of $441.14 billion and 11.1% market share.

Ethereum (ETH) has decisively broken above a resistance level, the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA50), igniting renewed bullish momentum across the market. This breakout marks a significant shift in market trend, opening the door for a potential rally toward higher targets around the $4,000 level. Ethereum Targets $4,000 After EMA50 Breakout The Ethereum price has delivered an explosive rally after its recent breakout above the EMA50 barrier. Given this development, crypto analyst Doctor Profit has forecasted on the X social media that ETH is gearing up for a massive surge toward $4,000.  Related Reading: Ethereum Shorts Reach Record Levels, How To Stay Positioned For A Breakout Sharing a detailed chart analysis, Doctor Profit disclosed that Ethereum was finally able to close above the key moving average after weeks of resistance and failed attempts to flip it into support—a struggle clearly shown by the multiple rejection wicks marked by the green arrows.   Notably, Ethereum’s breakout has triggered a strong continuation move, with its price surging over 28.17% in just one week, climbing from around $2,500 to a high near $3,226, at the time of the analysis. This price action marks a significant shift in momentum, indicating that the bulls may have regained control on the higher time frame.  According to Doctor Profit, Ethereum’s current technical structure suggests that further upside could follow its EMA50 breach. The clean break and hold above the moving average have invalidated previous bearish pressure zones and opened a path toward potentially higher price targets.  Based on historical price behavior after similar breakouts, the analyst expects Ethereum to rally toward $4,000 in the coming weeks. Such a move would reflect a notable 9.64% increase from its current price of approximately $3,648.  In his post, Doctor Profit noted that ETH is showing no immediate signs of weakness on the chart, with price holding strong above prior resistance levels. As a result, the recent breakout appears to have solidified as a new foundation for the next leg up. ETH Upside Targets Extend Beyond $4,000 Crypto market expert Henry stated in a recent analysis on X that Ethereum has staged a comeback, surging past $3,400 for the first time in five months and breaking out of a textbook Bull Flag pattern. This bullish momentum follows weeks of price consolidation and a key fakeout, which appears to have successfully flushed out prior downside liquidity.  Related Reading: Ethereum Forms ‘Pure Cup And Handle’ Pattern After Hitting $3,000, Analysts Set New Targets After forming two distinct consolidation zones around the $1,800-$2,000 and $2,800-$3,000 levels, ETH faked a breakdown before launching into a sharp rally. The cryptocurrency’s chart structure now shows strong bullish continuation signals, with the current trend pointing toward an immediate target of $4,000. Henry has forecasted that Ethereum’s upside targets extend far beyond $4,000, with potential milestones projected at $6,000 and even $10,000. While the analyst remains confident in ETH’s ability to reach these bullish targets, he acknowledges that a short-term correction to around $2,800 is possible before the price rally.

After beating the resistance mounted at the $3,000 by bears for months now, the Ethereum price looks primed for a further breakout. Expectations currently are that the Ethereum price rally will trigger the next altcoin season and possibly lead to a push toward new all-time highs for ETH. One analyst in particular has compared this breakout to what was seen back in May 2025, something that could mean that higher levels are in store for the altcoin. Ethereum Is Mirroring Its Move From May May 2025 has remained one of the most bullish for the Ethereum price so far this year, rallying by more than 40% in a 30-day period. The price had gone from a low of around $1,770 to a high of $2,650 before retracing. But the most important thing was the trend and how the price moved before finally reaching its high. There was an initial surge, then some sideways movement, before the final upsurge to $2,600, and then the eventual top. Related Reading: Bitcoin Dominance Just Got Rejected From TSDT Resistance That Triggered Last Altcoin Season — Details According to crypto analyst CryptosBatman on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the Ethereum price is once again mirroring this price movement that led to its 40% surge. The post highlights the fact that Ethereum has already seen an initial breakout and has begun to move sideways. However, this sideways move is not expected to last long and is actually part of the overall move. As the crypto analyst explained, the same triangle pattern that formed in May 2025 is now forming after the Ethereum price crossed the $3,000 range. Hence, the sideways movement is expected as investors take profit. Once the sideways accumulation is done and the triangle pattern is broken, then Ethereum is expected to begin rallying once again. The next target from here is above $3,600. Factors Driving The ETH Bullish Momentum Other than the fact that the Ethereum price has formed a similar triangle pattern to what was seen back in May, there are also notable developments in terms of accumulation that are also driving the price. For one, Spot Ethereum ETF inflows have continued to ramp up. Related Reading: XRP Becomes Top 3 Crypto After ProShares ETF Approval, Can It Flip ETH? Data from the Farside website shows that Ethereum ETFs have recorded positive net flows for almost two weeks straight now. The likes of BlackRock and Fidelity are leading the charge with tens of thousands of ETH being bought up daily. Ethereum treasury companies are now the rave of the moment as the likes of SharpLink and BitMine begin accumulating hundreds of millions of dollars in ETH. This rise in institutional adoption has become one of the major pushes for Ethereum as investors clamor for new highs. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

Yesterday’s inflows into US Ethereum spot ETFs hit a new high, and the market took notice. Ether’s price jumped sharply as big and small funds alike funneled fresh money into these products. Related Reading: If You’re Wealthy, 1 Bitcoin Should Already Be In Your Wallet, Expert Says Record Inflows Break Previous Highs According to latest data, US Ethereum spot ETFs saw a single‑day inflow of $727 million yesterday. That smashes the prior record of $428 million set on December 5. The nine funds tracked have now attracted new money every day for eight straight sessions before this surge. Based on reports, this eight‑day streak set the stage for what became the biggest one‑day haul in the ETFs’ history. Big Names Lead The Charge BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) drew nearly $500 illion on Wednesday, pushing its total net inflow to $7.11 billion since launch. The Fidelity Ethereum Fund (FETH) wasn’t far behind, adding $113 million and lifting its cumulative haul to almost $2 billion. Other vehicles chipped in too: Grayscale’s Ethereum Trust (ETHE) hauled in $54 million, the Grayscale Mini Trust added $33 million, and Bitwise’s ETHW ETF contributed $14.5 million. Based on those figures, it’s clear that both institutions and everyday investors are jumping on board across multiple brands. ETF Leaders Dominate New Money Nate Geraci, president of ETF Stores, noted on social media that these ETFs have gathered close to $2 billion over the past five trading days. That pace of inflows shows the growing comfort level big players have with owning Ether through a familiar wrapper. Retail investors often follow institutional moves, so these numbers could spark even more demand. Ethereum Price Climbs Higher Ether’s price has climbed 9% in the last 24 hours, trading at $3,430 at the time of writing. According to market data, that level hasn’t been seen since January 31, when Ether last topped $3,370 before plunging below $1,500. The sharp rise underlines how sensitive Ether’s price can be to big capital flows into spot ETFs. Related Reading: Massive Whale Profits $15 Million—Now Betting Big On Ethereum To Crash Price Reaction Fuels Optimism Some analysts are now eyeing $4,000 as the next milestone for Ether. The altcoin’s renewed momentum could lift other altcoins too. If top‑10 tokens follow Ether’s lead, the broader crypto market may ride this wave higher. Strong inflows alone won’t guarantee sustained gains. Big inflows can reverse quickly if sentiment shifts or if traders chase profits too aggressively. But for now, the scene is bullish. If inflows keep rolling in and the price holds above $3,300, the push toward $4,000 might not be far off. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView

A well-known crypto whale has made a big move against Ethereum, opening a $62.42 million short position using 18x leverage. The trader, identified by the wallet address “0x2258…”, is betting heavily that ETH won’t climb anytime soon—and so far, the gamble is paying off. Related Reading: Avalanche Shatters Record With 20M Transactions—Is Real-World Use Finally Here? Based on blockchain data monitored via Hyperdash, the whale shorted 20,474 ETH at an entry point of $3,060. As ETH has been trading at levels lower than $3,000 at the time of writing, the whale is already enjoying an unrealized profit of approximately $1.14 million, or returns of 30%. Ethereum Under Pressure Below $3,500 The liquidation value of the position is at $3,505 — near where ETH traded previously in January 2025. That point is now serving as very powerful resistance. If the price exceeds that level, the position stands to be completely liquidated. Whale 0x2258, who’s already made over $15M, is shorting $ETH with 18x leverage, holding a position of 20,474 $ETH($62.5M). This whale has previously profited big by trading against James Wynn.https://t.co/BALllYbUXbhttps://t.co/NhOE1YD4QN pic.twitter.com/7k5ZE81Noa — Lookonchain (@lookonchain) July 15, 2025 Despite that narrow buffer, the trader seems confident. The use of 18x leverage suggests a high-conviction call that ETH will drop further or, at the very least, won’t bounce past that resistance level in the short term. This kind of heavy shorting is raising eyebrows in a market that’s still undecided on whether Ethereum can regain bullish momentum alongside Bitcoin. Track Record Of Outsmarting James Wynn This isn’t the first time “0x2258…” has stepped in with bold trades. The wallet has gained a reputation for taking positions that go directly against crypto influencer James Wynn—often with profitable results. Back in May, Wynn went long on ETH and Bitcoin. Almost immediately, 0x2258 shorted both. When Wynn closed his positions, 0x2258 did the same and walked away with $1.36 million. The next day, as Wynn flipped bearish, 0x2258 went long and bagged another $2.54 million. The back-and-forth continued. By May 26, the whale had locked in $5.6 million in profits in just three days. Since then, the strategy has snowballed into more than $15 million in realized gains, most of it from flipping against Wynn’s positions. Related Reading: If You’re Wealthy, 1 Bitcoin Should Already Be In Your Wallet, Expert Says Big Bet Reflects Uncertainty In ETH’s Path While Bitcoin continues to break through key resistance zones, Ethereum seems stuck in a tougher fight. Traders like 0x2258 appear to believe that ETH lacks the strength right now to push past the $3,500 level. Still, shorting with this level of leverage is a double-edged sword. If ETH bounces sharply, traders like 0x2258 could get caught in a squeeze, forced to buy back in at a loss—driving the price up even faster. So far, though, the whale is winning again. Whether it ends in another multi-million-dollar gain or a hard reset depends on what ETH does next. For now, the market is waiting to see what happens next.

After weeks of whisper-quiet consolidation, Ethereum has finally found its voice, roaring through a historically thin price zone with conviction. Backed by heavy volume and strong weekly closes, ETH’s breakout isn’t just technical. The silence is over, and the bulls are back in charge. Weekly Charts Tell The Story: ETH Strength vs. SOL Struggle Cazz, in a recent update on X, highlighted a significant development on the Ethereum weekly chart. The ETH/USD pair has broken out of an 8-week tight consolidation range. This breakout came on the back of high volume and strong weekly closes near the highs. Its rapid price movement through a historically thin zone further confirms that this is classic big money behavior. Related Reading: Ethereum Bulls Roar — $3K Beckons After 5% Spike The technical structure suggests Ethereum’s bullish momentum is not only gaining traction but also aligning with broader institutional interest. This kind of breakout pattern often indicates the start of a stronger trend, especially when accompanied by elevated volume and price conviction as seen on the chart. In contrast, the SOL/ETH chart is showing a completely different story. Cazz pointed out that the pair is breaking down below long-term support on the weekly timeframe. This signals relative weakness and may be a sign that market participants are shifting preference away from SOL in the short and medium term. While Solana could still deliver in isolated moves, the overall structure puts Ethereum as the stronger asset.  Cazz’s analysis suggests a shift in market leadership, with Ethereum gaining strength through “classic big money behavior” while Solana shows weakness. As ETH asserts itself as the institutional Layer 1, it could be entering a more dominant phase in the near term. ETH Shifts Gears: From Accumulation To Acceleration According to Cazz, after “more than a year of sideways action and base building,” which he notes “can be a sign of institutions building substantial positions,” ETH appears to be transitioning into a new leadership phase. This shift is backed by strong fundamentals (tokenized treasuries, RWAs, DeFi infra) and upcoming regulatory catalysts, all pointing toward Ethereum’s growing dominance. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Signals Strength — Bullish Pop May Be Just Ahead Cazz highlighted that “Ethereum memes are coming back to life on big volume,” signaling a strong return in community sentiment and trader interest. This renewed energy around Ethereum memes is happening as the price breaks through key levels and narratives regain traction in the market. In his observation, Cazz pointed out that some are already up 5-10x from local bottoms, showcasing just how quickly opportunities are unfolding in the Ethereum ecosystem. Such momentum suggests that the quiet accumulation phase may now be giving way to a more aggressive rally led by both fundamentals and capital rotation.

Ethereum’s price action in the past seven days has seen it finally touch the $3,000 resistance zone for the first time in months. This interesting move comes amid growing institutional attention caused by the massive inflows into Spot Ethereum ETFs and Bitcoin’s recent climb to new all-time highs.  Ethereum has gained over 17% in the past seven days alone, reaching a new local high of $3,065. Interestingly, bullish technical structures are starting to emerge that could send the ETH price soaring toward new all-time highs. Two analysts have now spotted classic bullish setups, both hinting at a significant rally on the horizon. Cup And Handle Pattern Points To $4,200 If Breakout Holds The first analyst, known as @CryptosBatman on the social media platform X, shared a daily candlestick chart of Ethereum, where a pure ‘cup and handle’ pattern is visible over the past four months. The pattern, which started in early March, shows a rounded bottom that dipped to as low as $1,400, followed by a minor consolidation that formed the handle portion. Now, recent price action has caused ETH to break out of the neckline around $2,850. A technical projection from this neckline points to a 45% move to a price target just below $4,200. Related Reading: Ethereum Is Already Outperforming Bitcoin In July, Is Altcoin Season Here? According to this analyst, Ethereum’s breakout from the cup and handle pattern has formed in the middle of powerful fundamentals. Ethereum is now beginning to outperform Bitcoin in terms of short-term returns, and exchange reserves have dropped to an eight-year low. These are both fundamental signals of strong holding behavior and reduced sell-side pressure. With these metrics aligning with the technical breakout, @CryptosBatman believes Ethereum could be next in line to break its all-time high, possibly before the end of Q3. Weekly Chart Echoes Previous 42% Rally Another crypto market technician, CryptoBullet, expressed a similar sentiment on the social media platform X. This analyst referenced Ethereum’s weekly candlestick chart to support his outlook. He pointed to the formation of last week’s massive green breakout candle that has pushed the price above a major supply-resistance zone around $2,850.  This move, as shown in the chart below, mirrors the same structure that caused a 42% rally between February and March 2024, when ETH moved from the $2,900 level up to nearly $4,100 within a matter of weeks.  Related Reading: Ethereum To Outperform Bitcoin: Buy Before Mid-August, Analyst Warns If that price action is replicated in this current setup, Ethereum could again be on track to test $4,200 in the next three to four weeks. This puts the timeline of a $4,200 price target sometime in August 2025. The projection is shown with the vertical price range box drawn in the chart above, which maps a 42% upside from the breakout zone. Interestingly, this projection relies on the $2,800 price level, which previously acted as resistance, now flipping to support and preventing any sustained retracements below the $2,900 to $2,850 range. At the time of writing, Ethereum is trading at $2,980, having reached an intraday high of $3,074. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com

Ethereum has broken through the key resistance level that had capped its upside for weeks. After a period of consolidation, ETH gained momentum with higher targets on the table and bullish sentiment starting to build. This breakout may mark the beginning of the next bullish momentum, as technical signals point toward further upside. Bullish Structure Builds Above Key Support Levels An analyst known as LSplayQ reported on X that the Ethereum price has recently completed a rounded bottom formation on the 1-day chart, signaling a long-term trend reversal, and shifting the market sentiment from bearish to bullish. Related Reading: Ethereum Shorts Reach Record Levels, How To Stay Positioned For A Breakout Following this information, the ETH price has entered a consolidation phase, forming a tight range just below the $2,880 resistance level. This phase of sideways movement suggests a pause as the market digests recent gains. Ethereum has successfully broken above the $2,880 resistance, while confirming a bullish breakout. This breakout marks the beginning of a fresh upward trend and reinforces the bullish reversal signaled by the rounded bottom. With the breakout confirmed, ETH price is poised to rally toward the 0.618 Fibonacci extension level at $3,588. This target represents an approximate 17% upside from the current price and is often considered a key resistance area where profit-taking or further acceleration could occur. However, if ETH encounters bearish pressure, the price could retrace to the 0.236 Fibonacci level at $2,613. The 0 Fibonacci level at $2,883 will then act as immediate short-term support, while holding above this level will be critical to maintaining the bullish momentum and avoiding a deeper pullback. Crypto analyst TheVALTOR has also revealed that Ethereum has broken the $2,850. This breakout has validated the blue alternative scenario, which had projected a more aggressive bullish path based on the wave count dynamics. Furthermore, the chart shows the completion of an extended red micro wave 3, which is typically the dynamic and impulsive wave within the five-wave sequence. The ETH price is currently in a correction phase and forming wave 4, which TheVALTOR expected to unfold as a sideways consolidation rather than a sharp pullback. Consolidation Zone Tightens Below $3,000 The Ethereum 1-hour chart shows an uptrend in recent hours with a minor pullback. According to Gemxbt on X, this retracement has helped establish strong intraday support around $2,950, the level that buyers are defending with conviction. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Fails to Hold Momentum Above $3K — Correction Ahead? The Relative Strength Index (RSI) sits in neutral territory, signaling balanced momentum that ETH is neither overbought nor oversold. Meanwhile, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) has flashed a bearish crossover, which may indicate short-term weakness or a period of consolidation before the next decisive move. The key resistance sits at $3,000, which could be a critical level for bullish continuation. This level represents a key psychological threshold that also aligns with previous local highs.

A new weekly “On Chain” report from Bank of America is shining a spotlight on Ethereum. According to the report, the network is set to draw steady interest from stablecoin investors as lawmakers in Washington take up crypto bills in Congress. Ethereum’s role as the home for over 50% of all dollar‑pegged coins has caught the eyes of big banks and asset managers alike. Related Reading: XRP To Hit $4 This Week?

House Financial Services Chair French Hill told a “Think Crypto” podcast that dollar‑backed coins would solidify the US dollar’s global lead. If Congress backs clear rules, the rails that already carry the most volumes could see fresh inflows.

That nod isn’t just for the token itself. It’s a bet on the whole stack—wallets, apps and payment tools that ride on Ethereum’s code. Investors who pick up Ether now could tap growing on‑chain activity as stablecoin use climbs. Institutions Bet On Ether The report also mentioned Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent predicting that the dollar‑pegged stablecoin market may swell to $2 trillion in the next five years. That forecast has fund managers circling the charts. Thomas Lee, Fundstart CIO and new chairman of BitMine, even dubbed stablecoins the “ChatGPT of crypto.” His firm now holds Ether in its treasury.

Other sectors are racing alongside stablecoins. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink said tokenization could expand 4,000 times over time. He sees on‑chain assets tied to real‑world items booming soon. Some say XRP and Ether are the go‑to tokens for that play. But Ethereum already has the advantage of scale. It isn’t all smooth sailing. Regulation could tighten or split along different chains. New networks chase faster speeds and lower fees. That competition could chip away at Ethereum’s lead. Still, the network’s mix of smart‑contract tools and high stablecoin volumes gives it a strong head start. For now, plenty of eyes are on Congress and on‑chain data. If US lawmakers set clear stablecoin rules, Ethereum may keep its crown as the top hub. Investors looking for exposure will likely track Ether flows and watch the bills as they move through committee. The weeks ahead could spell out the next big chapter for the network.

As the Ethereum price has broken out above $3,000, the shorts have piled on with expectations that this rally will end up like the others before it: in a crash. Not only have the shorts been dominating the market recently, but the exponential growth has seen the short positions rise to levels never before seen in the history of the digital asset. While this might look bearish at a glance as it means traders expect the price to decline, it could actually end up being ultra-bullish for the altcoin. Ethereum Leverage Positions Reach Record Short Levels In a post on X, market expert Zerohedge revealed an interesting development for Ethereum, and that is the fact that Ethereum shorts have now reached new records. The chart showed the Ether leveraged net totals, and it came out to a -13291, beating the previous high that was set back in May at -12000. Related Reading: Bitcoin Is Not Stopping At $123,000 — Technical Indicators Point To $140,000 Top This rise in Ethereum shorts proves that there is still a lot of disbelief in the current market rally, and many traders expect the Ethereum price to fall again. However, looking at the historical performance when it comes to shorts reaching record levels, it shows a trend that this could mean the rally could be sustained. For example, back in May 2025, when it set its previous peak of -12000, the Ethereum price had rallied from below $1,800 to above $2,600 before the month was over. This trend is also playing out now as the Ethereum price has crossed $3,000, as the Ether shorts have reached a new peak. How To Stay Positioned For ETH Given that the Ethereum price seems to be headed into what might be a parabolic rally after clearing $3,000, crypto analyst Luca on X has outlined how they intend to position for the surge. Luca explains that with the new week, the Ethereum price is at a key point. This is because it is approaching the 0.618 Fibonacci Retracement level, and this level is important because it has been a point of consolidation for the altcoin in the past.

So far, Luca revealed that he has only de-risked Bitcoin positions as the pioneer cryptocurrency has hit all-time highs, but as the end of the cycle draws closer, the focus remains on altcoins. He maintains that the Ethereum price, alongside altcoins, will end up outperforming Bitcoin once the dominance drops. When this dominance drop happens, the analyst says that is when to begin de-risking altcoin positions. For now, though, the analyst expects Ethereum and altcoins to keep trailing Bitcoin as the dominance still remains high above 64% and BTC is yet to enter its distribution phase.

Ethereum has finally touched the $3,000 price level once again after spending weeks trading in a narrow range beneath $2,800. This recent breakout, although brief, marks the first time Ethereum reclaimed this level since early February. According to technical analyst Merlijn The Trader, Ethereum’s next destination after breaking past $3,000 is already in sight. Related Reading: Don’t Hold Back—Expert Recommends Full Stake In XRP Bull Flag Breakout Points To Measured Move For Ethereum Ethereum went through an interesting rally last week alongside Bitcoin’s push to new all-time highs. However, this Ethereum price rally, which saw it touch $3,000 again, wasn’t based on momentum spillover from Bitcoin alone. This is because Ethereum itself experienced significant institutional interest from Spot Ethereum ETFs.  According to data from SoSoValue, US-based Spot Ethereum ETFs recorded a combined $907.99 million in inflows last week, their best week since the products launched in July 2024. Thursday, July 10, alone was highlighted by inflows of $383.10 million, making it the largest single-day inflow for any Ethereum ETF in 2025 so far. In a post shared on the social media platform X, crypto analyst Merlijn pointed to a confirmed bull flag breakout on Ethereum’s daily candlestick timeframe chart. Interestingly, the technical setup proposed by the analyst follows a falling wedge reversal that preceded the current uptrend.  According to the chart attached to his analysis, the falling wedge that led to the reversal was formed from the December 2024 highs to the April 2025 lows, with the breakout occurring in mid-May. The breakout eventually saw Ethereum entering into a tight flag-like consolidation that spanned between May and June, until the most recent breakout above $2,700. That pattern has now resolved to the upside, and the next technical level of interest is a measured move based on the price action that formed the pole of the bull flag. This measured move places the next technical level of price interest at $3,834.  Image From X: Merlijn The Trader 80% Of ETH Now In Profit On-chain indicators further validate Ethereum’s current strength. According to data from on-chain analytics platform Santiment, Ethereum’s price action has been dancing around the $3,000 mark since Friday, crossing it multiple times intraday. During this back and forth, 124.13 million ETH out of the 155.04 million total supply crossed into profitability, which represents 79.96% of all tokens. This reading is particularly interesting as it is the highest percentage recorded since January 2025. Image From X: Santiment The same data shows Ethereum is just 13 million coins away from matching the total supply in profit at its previous all-time high of profitability recorded in December 2024. This shift toward a profit-heavy network state tends to encourage holding behavior and long-term conviction, which could translate into reduced sell pressure in the coming week. This, in turn, could see Ethereum close a daily candle above $3,000 and move toward the $3,834 price target during the new week.

This rally has been led by the Bitcoin price, which has reached new all-time highs (ATHs). Based on this, the Ethereum price is expected to also reach new highs, with the yearly high of $3,600 already in sight. A reclaim of this level could also pave the way for ETH to reclaim the psychological $4,000 level.  Meanwhile, crypto analyst Rekt Capital alluded to the rising dominance of the Ethereum price. He noted that this ETH dominance fractal will not be a copy-paste version of what happened between 2019 and 2020. However, the analyst claimed that the recent rise to 10% of the dominance level shows that Ethereum wants to become more market-dominant in the coming months.  BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes also believes that it is time for the Ethereum price to make its move. In an X post, he predicted that the altcoin could reach as high as $10,000 on this upward trend. He made this prediction while highlighting ETH’s chart against its BTC pair, suggesting that he also agrees that Ethereum’s dominance will rise in the coming months.  ETH’s Move To Trigger Altcoin Season In an X post, crypto analyst Mikybull Crypto stated that the Ethereum price is following the Wyckoff re-accumulation schematic. He further remarked that this massive move will trigger altcoin season after ETH reaches the “SOS” level around $3,000. His accompanying chart also showed that he expects Ethereum to reach as high as $3,200 in the short term.  Related Reading: Ethereum Price Targets $3,000 As Analyst Calls It A ‘Powder Keg’ In another X post, Mikybull Crypto alluded to the fact that Bitcoin’s dominance was dumping even as the BTC price rises.

With one week already gone in the month of July, Ethereum has already begun to perform better than Bitcoin. While the gap is still very close, the outperformance of Ethereum over Bitcoin for only the second time this year could signal the entrance of better things for the altcoin market. If this continues, then an altcoin season might be on the horizon, as historical data shows it always begins with ETH outperforming BTC. So, let’s take a look at how both assets have been performing. Ethereum Barrels Ahead Of Bitcoin In July So far, in the month of July, the Ethereum price has been putting in more green candles, suggesting that bulls are making their move again. This has led to a small outperformance when compared to the Bitcoin price over this time period and could be the signal that altcoin season could be starting soon. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Price Could See 180% Explosion As This Indicator Flashes Bullish Divergence Data from the CryptoRank website shows that Ethereum is already up more than 2.50% since the start of July. Meanwhile, the Bitcoin price, while having seen some price increases, is up only 1.20% at the time of this writing. Thus, Ethereum is already performing better in the month of July. If this outperformance continues, then this would be only the second time that the Ethereum price will be doing better than the Bitcoin price so far in 2025. The first was back in May, when the Ethereum price rallied by over 41% in one month. This was major compared to Bitcoin’s 11.1% move in that month. However, while the Bitcoin rally in the month of May saw its price reach new all-time highs, Ethereum continues to struggle and remains below its $4,800 all-time high levels. Nevertheless, Ethereum’s rally did translate to bullishness for the altcoin market as the likes of PEPE and BONK rallied by more than 100% in response to this. Related Reading: Bitcoin To Repeat Parabolic Phase From 2017 And 2021? Here’s The Target Given that Ethereum has led the altcoin season in the past, its outperformance of Bitcoin at this level remains a positive. If it continues, then the altcoin market could start to see further increases in price. And if Ethereum rises another 41% from here, it would put it right on the path to $4,000. However, the month of July has not historically been the best month for Ethereum, with an average return of +5.13%. The whole of the third quarter of the year is also a mixed bag for the altcoin, with an equal number of green and red closes over the last decade. Thus, it remains to be seen how the ETH price will perform this quarter and if it can successfully outpace Bitcoin. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com
