Ethereum is once again approaching critical levels after a stretch of volatile yet bullish price action. Following a sharp rebound from yesterday’s low of around $3,675, ETH is now trading above the $3,800 mark, regaining momentum as traders eye a decisive move. While short-term volatility remains, the overall structure favors continuation—provided ETH can break cleanly above the $4,000 resistance level. Related Reading: Bitcoin Heat Macro Phase Signals Market Sits Between Accumulation And Distribution This threshold now stands as the key barrier between consolidation and a potential rally toward new highs. A confirmed breakout would likely ignite fresh bullish momentum across the broader altcoin market. Until then, price remains trapped in a narrowing range, testing both trader patience and liquidity depth. Meanwhile, on-chain data supports the bullish case. According to blockchain analytics platform Arkham, whales have ramped up their accumulation, with large addresses steadily adding to their ETH holdings in recent days. This ongoing accumulation trend reflects growing conviction among high-cap players and adds weight to the possibility of further upside in the months ahead. Whale Receives Ethereum From Galaxy OTC As Institutions Double Down Ethereum’s bullish narrative gained further momentum this week after Arkham disclosed a massive on-chain transaction involving a major institutional player. A fresh wallet address—0xdf0A67Ded855F8ea4baB6399690883243c0e2EF3—just received $153 million worth of ETH, purchased directly through Galaxy Digital’s over-the-counter (OTC) desk. The scale and nature of this transaction suggest growing institutional conviction in Ethereum’s long-term potential. This isn’t just another whale move. The fact that the ETH was funneled into a new wallet from a regulated OTC provider underscores the strategic accumulation taking place behind the scenes. As traditional finance increasingly integrates with crypto, Ethereum’s utility, programmability, and future role in tokenized finance are making it a high-conviction play among institutional allocators. This heavy buy comes after a prolonged period of weakness. Earlier this year, ETH suffered persistent selling pressure, with price action sliding lower for months. Retail interest faded, and sentiment turned bearish. But while the public panicked, sophisticated players appear to have taken the other side of the trade—accumulating quietly during the downturn.

Despite recent price volatility, ETH has remained above its 50- and 100-period moving averages, currently near $3,756 and $3,629, respectively. This suggests that bullish momentum is still intact in the short term. Volume has picked up slightly, indicating rising interest from traders as ETH tests this critical horizontal resistance. The price has failed to close decisively above this level multiple times since July 25, highlighting its significance. However, the consistent higher lows forming over the past week point to building buying pressure beneath the surface. Related Reading: Bitcoin Long-Term Holders Begin Distribution: Mirroring Fall 2024 Cycle A confirmed breakout above $3,860.80 could open the door for a push toward the psychological $4,000 level and beyond.

Ethereum has struggled with the resistance at $4,000 over the last three years and has yet to make a definite break above this level. The constant rejection from here suggests that this is now the level to beat if the Ethereum price is to ever resume its campaign for new all-time highs from here. Given this, how the price reacts now to this level will determine whether there is a major crash coming or if bulls can continue their domination and trigger an altcoin season. $4,000 Is The Decision-Maker For Ethereum After multiple failed retests over the last year, the $4,000 has emerged as the undisputed psychological level for the Ethereum price. Crypto analyst The Alchemist Trader refers to this as a high-timeframe barrier due to these rejections and the major level to watch to determine the next direction for ETH. Related Reading: This Indicator Has Perfectly Called Bitcoin Cycle Tops, Here’s What It’s Saying Now In the analysis, Alchemist explains that Ethereum has now entered a decisive stage while testing the upper boundary of a long-standing range. This long-standing range is identified as the $1,300-$4,000 range, which has held for more than a year. Following the most recent failure to break out of $4,000, Ethereum has fallen back into the range and has now entered consolidation. Below $4,000, the analyst believes that trading Ethereum is filled with both opportunity and risk. This all depends on whether the altcoin breaks out or fails next, putting investors in a precarious position of picking whether to long or short the digital asset at this level. Since previous retests of the $4,000 have led to rejections and a push back toward the mid-range or lower levels, it is possible that this time follows the established trend. However, there is still a lot of bullish sentiment in the market, and Ethereum could ride this wave into another breakout from here. What Happens In A Break Or Rejection In the event of a breakout above the $4,000, the crypto analyst does see the Ethereum price reaching new yearly highs from here. The first major resistance after $4,000 would be the $4,500 level. Next up would then be the $5,000 psychological level, which would mean brand new all-time highs for the altcoin if it were to test this resistance. Related Reading: Ethereum Price To $20,000? ETH Is Mirroring Bitcoin’s Move From 2021 On the flip side, another total rejection of $4,000 could trigger a massive crash. The last rejection from this psychological resistance back in December 2024 led to a multi-month decline that saw the price crash more than 60% before finding a bottom four months later at around $1,500. In the latter scenario, the analyst expects the Ethereum price to continue to trade inside the established $1,300-$4,000 range. As such, Alchemist advises investors that “Until a decisive move occurs, traders should remain cautious and reactive rather than overly anticipatory.” Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com
As Ethereum turns 10 years old, the crypto community has gathered to celebrate the network that helped shape the industry over the past decade, with anecdotes from industry leaders and bullish predictions for Ether’s (ETH) upcoming price action. Related Reading: Analyst Says Bitcoin’s Final Leg Is Near – Time To Be ‘Cautiously Optimistic’? Ethereum Hits 10-Year Milestone Ethereum and the crypto community are celebrating the blockchain’s 10th anniversary by highlighting some of the ecosystem’s key events since 2015, like the ICO craze, the non-fungible tokensFT boom, The Merge, and spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs). In an X post, Unchained host Laura Shin listed some of Ethereum’s milestones, including its first spot in client diversity, Total Value Locked (TVL), and the number of ecosystem developers. Shin also emphasized the network’s 100% uptime rate during the last 10 years. One of Ethereum’s developers, Lefteris Karapetsas, commemorated the anniversary by sharing some pictures from July 30, 2015, stating, “We were a small team of hackers in an office in Kreuzberg in Berlin and we had just launched the Ethereum network. The rest is history. Looking back at the last 10 years, I am excited about the next 10 years, the next 25, the next 100.” Meanwhile, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong revealed how the US immigration system technically “contributed” to Ethereum’s creation: Fun fact: I met @vitalikbuterin in 2013 at the San Jose Bitcoin conference when he was writing for Bitcoin Magazine (his writing was great). A few months later I invited him to come by Coinbase’s first office in San Francisco for a visit and he showed us some cool stuff on his laptop. Armstrong explained that he tried to hire Vitalik Buterin in 2013, but due to a series of circumstances, including problems obtaining a US work Visa, Buterin was forced to return to Canada. “While he was stuck in Canada, he created Ethereum,” the CEO detailed, “So, in a way, the sub-optimal immigration system in the U.S. contributed to the creation of Ethereum.” Bankless co-founder David Hoffman jokingly replied that “Coinbase almost prevented Ethereum from ever happening.” ETH’s Birthday Fun Delayed? On its birthday, ETH started the day trying to reclaim the $3,800 mark, which some analysts consider the “last major resistance” before new highs. The King of Altcoins has been attempting to successfully break out from this level for over a week, with two failed attempts during this timeframe. At the start of the week, the cryptocurrency briefly surged above this level, hitting a seven-month high of $3,941 on Monday. However, the recent market pullback sent Ethereum back inside its local range. During the Wednesday celebrations, ETH’s price suffered 4% drop to the $3,680 area, fueled by the US Federal Reserve (Fed) announcement of its decision to leave interest rates unchanged. Nonetheless, it quickly recovered from the initial market reaction, which saw liquidations worth $212 million in just 60 minutes. Related Reading: Injective Targets $25 Amid Crucial Breakout Attempt – New Highs In Sight? Crypto analyst Ali Martinez affirmed that as long as the $3,300 support zone holds, ETH “could be on track for a move to $4,220 and potentially $5,140, based on the MVRV Pricing Bands.” Similarly, market watcher Merlijn The Trader noted that “liquidity is pulling Ethereum like a magnet. ETH is gravitating toward $4,000, the largest wall of resting orders in months. One clean push… and it detonates.” As of this writing, ETH is trading at $3,760, a 5% increase in the weekly timeframe.

Ethereum price found support near the $3,680 zone. ETH is now rising and might soon aim for a move toward the $4,000 zone. Ethereum started a fresh increase above the $3,740 and $3,800 levels. The price is trading above $3,820 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There was a break above a bearish trend line with resistance at $3,810 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken). The pair could start a fresh increase if it remains supported above the $3,800 zone in the near term. Ethereum Price Eyes Fresh Gains Ethereum price started a downside correction from the $3,940 level, like Bitcoin. ETH price declined below the $3,900 and $3,800 support levels. The bears even pushed the price below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,515 swing low to the $3,940 high. Finally, the price spiked below $3,700 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. It tested the $3,680 support zone. The bulls protected the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,515 swing low to the $3,940 high. The price is again rising above the $3,750 level. There was a break above a bearish trend line with resistance at $3,810 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. Ethereum price is now trading above $3,820 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price could face resistance near the $3,880 level. The next key resistance is near the $3,920 level. The first major resistance is near the $3,940 level. A clear move above the $3,940 resistance might send the price toward the $3,980 resistance. An upside break above the $3,980 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $4,050 resistance zone or even $4,120 in the near term. Another Drop In ETH? If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,880 resistance, it could start a downside correction. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,800 level. The first major support sits near the $3,720 zone. A clear move below the $3,720 support might push the price toward the $3,680 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $3,565 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $3,500. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for ETH/USD is gaining momentum in the bullish zone. Hourly RSI – The RSI for ETH/USD is now above the 50 zone.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has acknowledged a Nasdaq filing proposing an amendment to BlackRock iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA). This proposal seeks to enable the ETF to stake its Ethereum holdings, allowing it to participate in the ETH proof-of-stake consensus mechanism and potentially earn staking rewards. What Happens When Institutional Staking Goes Mainstream? BlackRock just received regulatory acknowledgment to include staking in its Spot Ethereum ETF. As mentioned by Çağrı Yaşar on X, acknowledging the filing isn’t a minor regulatory checkbox. It’s the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) handing institutions a key, and not just to ETH price action, but to its engine. Related Reading: Analyst Says The Patient Will Be Rewarded As Ethereum Price Retests 4-Year Resistance This staking isn’t about price speculation. It’s about alignment, incentives, governance, and yield. Unlike traditional asset holding, staking involves actively securing the network by validating transactions and supporting ETH’s consensus. With recent regulatory approvals allowing BlackRock and other institutions to include staking in Spot ETH ETFs, this will enable Wall Street to hold ETH as a speculative asset. Thus, they can begin earning from the yield generated by the ETH core protocol mechanics, and integrate deeply into the network infrastructure. However, if ETH staking becomes ETF-native, it will redefine what it means to invest in a financial network. ETH would become the first global-scale digital infrastructure where traditional capital markets not only invest, but they become active participants in the protocol. The SEC has effectively validated ETH’s consensus model as not only secure but worthy of institutional involvement. This is how empires shift, and not with headlines, but with details no one expected. This highlights that major shifts in power or systems don’t always announce themselves loudly. Instead, they often happen quietly, through small regulatory changes. ETH isn’t becoming Wall Street-friendly. Wall Street is becoming ETH-compatible. This is when a new technology enters mainstream finance, and people assume it’s being reshaped to fit traditional systems. Furthermore, Yaşar noted that the network effect has just turned financial. This means that the value of a network grows as more participants join. Why Institutions Are Backing Protocol Infrastructure In an X post, VirtualBacon stated that BlackRock and JPMorgan aren’t investing in Ethereum for speculative hype or short-term price gains. Instead, their focus lies on ETH’s growing role as a foundational platform for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization and stablecoin infrastructure. Related Reading: Analyst Forecasts Major Surge For Ethereum Price, Eyeing $4,000 In Its Best July Yet Larry Fink, the CEO of BlackRock, has been unequivocal about his vision for ETH’s future, stating that he aims to tokenize stocks and build investment funds directly on the ETH blockchain. This marks a significant institutional endorsement of ETH as a platform for next-generation finance. Meanwhile, Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan has softened his previously cautious stance on cryptocurrencies, especially following recent regulatory clarity provided by initiatives under the GENIUS Act. This shift signals growing openness among traditional financial leaders to integrate blockchain technology into mainstream finance. Featured image from iStock images, chart from tradingview.com
Crypto analyst Lourenço has predicted that the Ethereum price could rally to $9,000 in this market cycle. This comes as ETH eyes a breakout against its BTC pair, which could spark a massive run for the crypto and other altcoins. Ethereum Price Eyes Rally To $9,000 This Cycle In an X post, Lourenço opined that the Ethereum price could rally to as high as $9,000 at some point in this market cycle. This came as he analyzed the weekly ETH chart. The analyst noted that, depending on how the trend on the upper side of the wedge is drawn, the altcoin may have already broken it with hard closes above. Related Reading: Ethereum Price To $20,000? ETH Is Mirroring Bitcoin’s Move From 2021 Lourenço declared that the $4,000 level is an important one and that once it flips into support, there will be additional resistance between $4,700 and $5,000. However, the analyst believes that the Ethereum price is ultimately set to go and tag between $8,000 and $9,000. He also indicated that the risk-return ratio on ETH is very hard to ignore at the moment. Crypto analyst Galaxy also echoed a similar bullish sentiment for the Ethereum price. In an X post, he said that there is a lot of potential upside for ETH on the BTC pair. The analyst noted that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is still bottomed and that, from his perspective, the trend is just beginning. His accompanying chart showed that the RSI isn’t in overbought levels despite the fact that the Ethereum price has rallied over 60% in the past month. Notably, ETH’s RSI had surged above 60 on previous highs, including when it reached its current ATH of $4,800 in 2021. The Key Is For ETH To Break Above $4,000 In an X post, crypto analyst Ted revealed that the key is for the Ethereum price to break above the $4,000 level. He noted that since the 2021 ATH, ETH hasn’t been able to reclaim the $4,000 level. However, if that happens this time around, he declared that the ETH pump will be “unstoppable.” Related Reading: Crypto Founder Reveals What Will Drive Ethereum Price To $10,000 His accompanying chart showed that the Ethereum price could rally to $5,200 in the short term. This will mark a new all-time high for the altcoin. Crypto analyst Merlijn also hammered on the $4,000 resistance. He noted that this has been the ceiling for ETH since 2021, and it has been rejected from this level seven times. However, the Ethereum price is again looking to break above this level. Merlijn remarked that this resistance isn’t just another resistance but the “gate to price discovery.” His accompanying chart showed that ETH could reach $11,000 between now and 2026 if it breaks this resistance level. At the time of writing, the Ethereum price is trading at around $3,800, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com
Ethereum has entered a volatile and decisive phase following weeks of strong buying pressure and rapid price appreciation. After pushing above $3,800, ETH is now facing resistance, with bulls stepping in to defend key lower demand zones. The market appears uncertain, caught between a potential continuation toward new highs and the risk of a broader cooldown. Related Reading: Abraxas Capital Faces $100M Unrealized Loss On $800M Crypto Short Positions – Details Adding to the momentum, new data from Arkham reveals that BlackRock purchased over four times more Ethereum than Bitcoin last week. This shift marks a significant moment for institutional involvement in Ethereum and signals growing confidence in its long-term potential. Analysts across the industry are beginning to take note, interpreting the move as a signal that Ethereum may be gaining favor among traditional finance giants. As Bitcoin consolidates near all-time highs, Ethereum now stands at a crossroads. Will it continue climbing and close the gap, or will rejection above $3,800 mark the beginning of a local top? BlackRock’s Ethereum Allocation Signals Growing Institutional Shift Arkham data has revealed a significant development in institutional crypto allocation: BlackRock purchased over $1.2 billion worth of Ethereum last week, compared to just $267 million in Bitcoin. This 4.5x disparity signals a decisive shift in institutional strategy, with capital now flowing more aggressively into ETH than BTC. For many in the market, this is what true institutional Ethereum adoption looks like—massive inflows that reshape market dynamics. This shift didn’t start overnight. Institutional interest in Ethereum began building back in April, when ETH hit a cycle low near $1,380. Since then, a combination of legal clarity, progress around ETF approval, and Ethereum’s maturing role in the financial ecosystem has fueled a steady wave of accumulation from large players. BlackRock’s latest allocation is simply the most visible and significant confirmation of that trend. As the broader crypto market heats up, Ethereum appears well-positioned to continue its upward trajectory. However, not everything is straightforward. ETH is now struggling to break through resistance around the $3,800 level, and the failure to reclaim new highs is beginning to stir uncertainty. Some analysts warn that the current rally may lose steam without a breakout, and fear of a short-term correction is growing. Related Reading: Bitcoin Long-Term Holders Begin Distribution: Mirroring Fall 2024 Cycle ETH Faces Key Resistance After Parabolic Rally Ethereum has staged an impressive rally over the past few weeks, surging from sub-$2,000 levels to a current price of $3,782.61. The weekly chart shows a strong bullish breakout from the $2,852.16 resistance zone, with ETH now approaching a critical barrier near $3,860.80. Price briefly reached a high of $3,941.86 before pulling back, signaling potential short-term exhaustion after an aggressive upside move. Volume has increased significantly during this breakout, confirming strong buying interest. The 50, 100, and 200-week SMAs—all converging around $2,700–$2,850—now serve as key support, reinforcing the strength of the breakout. As long as ETH remains above the $2,850 level, the broader structure remains bullish. Related Reading: TRON Sees $1B USDT Mint: Liquidity Wave Incoming? However, the current pause below $3,860 suggests indecision as bulls encounter historical resistance. A clean weekly close above this level could open the door to a continuation toward $4,200–$4,400. On the downside, a rejection followed by a drop below $3,500 may trigger a short-term correction as traders secure profits. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum price struggled to continue higher above the $3,940 zone. ETH is now consolidating gains and might soon aim for a move toward $4,000. Ethereum started a fresh increase above the $3,840 and $3,880 levels. The price is trading above $3,800 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a bearish trend line forming with resistance at $3,840 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken). The pair could start a fresh increase if it remains supported above the $3,725 zone in the near term. Ethereum Price Holds Support Ethereum price struggled to extend gains above the $3,940 level, like Bitcoin. ETH price started a downside correction from the $3,939 high and traded below $3,900. The price traded below the $3,820 support level and settled below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,515 swing low to the $3,939 high. Moreover, there is a bearish trend line forming with resistance at $3,840 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. However, the price is steady above the $3,720 support and the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,515 swing low to the $3,939 high.

Ethereum (ETH) has had an impressive July, surging over 60% from around $2,400 on July 1 to a high of $3,941 by July 27. What’s particularly notable about this rally is that it appears to be driven by fresh capital inflows – not a rotation out of Bitcoin (BTC), as some have suggested. ETH Rally Driven By Fresh Capital According to a CryptoQuant Quicktake post by contributor Carmelo Aleman, claims that ETH’s current rally is a result of capital rotation from Bitcoin to Ethereum are unfounded. Aleman references on-chain data – especially the Bitcoin Realized Cap – to explain his analysis. Related Reading: Ethereum Approaches Wyckoff ‘Liftoff’ Phase – Can ETH Reach A New High? For the uninitiated, Bitcoin’s Realized Cap measures the total value of all BTC in circulation based on the price at which each coin last moved on-chain, rather than the current market price. It provides a more accurate view of actual capital invested in Bitcoin, helping identify accumulation or distribution trends over time. Aleman shared the following chart showing that, as of July 25 at 11 AM UTC, Bitcoin reached a new all-time high (ATH) in Realized Cap at $1.018 trillion. This increase strongly suggests that capital remains flowing into Bitcoin – not out of it. In fact, Bitcoin’s Realized Cap has continued to rise, albeit gradually, even as Ethereum gained bullish momentum. Aleman explains that brief pauses in BTC price action typically align with phases of capital accumulation, which have historically preceded major rallies. Further, Aleman remarked that ETH is simply benefitting from the strong growth prospects of the Ethereum ecosystem. July witnessed a significant surge in interest in the ETH ecosystem, which reflected in the steep rise in price of the digital asset. Ethereum Network Seeing Returning Interest Multiple metrics reinforce the view that new capital is entering the Ethereum ecosystem. For example, data from DefiLlama shows that the Total Value Locked (TVL) in Ethereum’s decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms has risen significantly – from $49 billion on April 29 to $84.6 billion by July 29. Additional on-chain metrics point to a similar trend. According to etherscan.io, daily transactions on the Ethereum network have been climbing steadily, with nearly 1.48 million transactions recorded on July 27 alone. Related Reading: Analyst Forecasts Major Surge For Ethereum Price, Eyeing $4,000 In Its Best July Yet There’s also growing speculation that Ethereum’s declining circulating supply is contributing to upward price pressure. Over the past month, ETH reserves on centralized exchanges have dropped by one million coins, supporting the narrative of a developing “supply crunch.” Adding to that, Ethereum liquid staking recently reached a new record high, with 35.5 million ETH now locked in liquid staking protocols. At press time, ETH trades at $3,772, down 1% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Unsplash, charts from CryptoQuant, DefiLlama, and TradingView.com
The Ethereum price may be setting the stage for a historic breakout, as a new technical analysis suggests that ETH is closely mirroring the Bitcoin (BTC) price action from 2020 to 2021. With Ethereum currently consolidating beneath a long-term downtrend line and approaching critical resistance, a crypto analyst eyes a potential move to $20,000 if the historic pattern continues to play out. Ethereum Price Mirrors Bitcoin’s Historic 2021 Pattern According to a new analysis by crypto market expert Ted Pillows, Ethereum’s current price structure is beginning to reflect a striking resemblance to Bitcoin’s breakout phase in late 2020. The analyst’s chart shows ETH following a nearly identical pattern of accumulation, re-accumulation, and compression within a descending triangle fractal that Bitcoin displayed before its parabolic bull run in 2021. Related Reading: Billionaire Mike Novogratz Says Ethereum Will Enter Price Discovery If It Takes Out This Level At the time, Bitcoin had surged from a whopping $9,550 to roughly $64,000, marking a significant price increase of 570.37%. Just like BTC during the COVID pandemic shakeout, Pillow’s analysis shows that ETH has now emerged from a prolonged consolidation phase and is testing the downtrend resistance line that has capped its highs since the 2021 peak. If Ethereum breaks through its diagonal resistance, the analyst’s chart indicates that a vertical surge toward $29,500 may become technically viable. This would represent a significant increase of approximately 672% from the cryptocurrency’s current price of $3,820. Notably, the path to this bold target mirrors Bitcoin’s trajectory after it broke out of its long-term downtrend, triggering a rapid and exponential move. The chart also illustrates a potential breakout zone that aligns with the timing of the previous cycle’s price expansion—indicating that Ethereum could be preparing for its most powerful price rally yet. While the trajectory of Pillows’ arrow on the chart targets a possible surge toward $29,500, the top of the green shaded zone suggests Ethereum could reach a peak above $58,500. Such a bold move would mark a historic breakout, representing a surge of roughly 1,432% and placing ETH at nearly half of Bitcoin’s price of $118,940 as of writing. Analyst Sets $5,000 As ETH’s Minimum Target Due to Ethereum’s bullish run lately, a few analysts in the crypto community have forecasted a potential rally toward the $5,000 mark—a move that would set a new all-time high for the leading altcoin. However, while many consider a surge to $5,000 a major milestone, Pillows views this target as merely a baseline. Related Reading: This Ethereum Descending Broadening Wedge Pattern Looks Similar To 2019-2020, Here’s What Happened Last Time He has set $5,000 as the minimum target for his outlook, emphasizing his firm conviction in ETH’s bullish potential. On the chart, Ethereum’s recent consolidation is marked as a re-accumulation zone, setting the foundation for a significant rally. With a breakout from its long-term resistance in sight, Pillows’ analysis suggests that Ethereum could experience an extended bull phase with limited overhead resistance.

With the Ethereum price experiencing a decline on Monday amid a broader market correction, the altcoin continues to shine with one of its best performances in July to date. Over the past thirty days, the Ethereum price has surged by an impressive 80%, marking a significant recovery after a long period of consolidation and retest of lower levels that saw minimal bullish activity. Ethereum Price Poised For Breakout While other major digital assets like Bitcoin (BTC) and XRP have reported gains of 10% and 40%, respectively on the monthly time frame, the recent Ethereum price resurgence is particularly notable. Crypto analyst Lark Davis recently took to the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to assert that Ethereum is on the verge of breaking the $4,000 mark, indicating that momentum is building rapidly. Related Reading: TRON Sees $1B USDT Mint: Liquidity Wave Incoming? Despite its recent gains, Ethereum remains approximately 25% shy of its peak from the 2021 cycle. Historically, Bitcoin dominance has played a crucial role in determining the Ethereum price trajectory. The analyst observed that for the Ethereum price to reach its peak, Bitcoin’s dominance needs to dip to around 40%. Currently, Bitcoin’s dominance is in a downtrend at 61%, and the last time it fell to similar levels, ETH rallied over 200%. Another analyst, known as JACKIS on X, has made a bold proclamation that Ethereum will likely never trade below $3,000 again, suggesting that any such decline would indicate a catastrophic failure of the asset. However, JACKIS acknowledges that a temporary correction down to around $3,400 is still plausible given Ethereum’s proximity to the $4,000 threshold. Wall Street Sees $60,000 Implied Value Adding to the bullish sentiment surrounding ETH’s momentum, the network’s potential has been emphasized by BitMine, a company involved in Bitcoin and Ethereum mining. In a recent social media thread, BitMine highlighted that many on Wall Street view Ethereum as the most significant macro trade for the next decade. Tom Lee, the chair of BitMine, referred to stablecoins as the “ChatGPT moment” for the cryptocurrency space, projecting that stablecoin market capitalization could soar to $4 trillion—a tenfold increase. Notably, over 60% of these stablecoins are based on the Ethereum network, boosting demand for the token. Moreover, Wall Street is increasingly exploring ways to tokenize assets on the Ethereum blockchain, further driving interest and investment in the platform. Related Reading: Asia’s Bitcoin Giant Metaplanet Adds 780 BTC In Massive Crypto Bet BitMine referenced a research titled “The Bull Case For ETH,” which posits that the long-term value of Ethereum could reach an astonishing $704,000, representing an extraordinary 18,000% increase from current levels. To contextualize this valuation, BitMine consulted several research firms to estimate the “replacement” value of Ethereum in relation to Wall Street’s activities. While this figure is intended for illustrative purposes, the implied value for Ethereum has been suggested to be around $60,000. When writing, ETH price trades approximately at $3,766.

Despite what is akin to a bull market with the Bitcoin price hitting multiple new all-time highs, the Ethereum price continues to hit major resistances in its campaign for new highs. The most recent is the resistance push at the $3,800, which perfectly aligns with the 4-year resistance line that has kept the leading altcoin by market cap from hitting new all-time highs. However, as Ethereum once again gears up for a retest, this time could be the chart that signals the breakout. Ethereum On The Verge Of Breakout Crypto analyst MMCrypto highlighted a possible breakout on the Ethereum price chart after the altcoin moved back toward a 4-year resistance trendline. This trendline had begun back in 2021 when the Ethereum price had hit its $4,800 all-time high, and since then, it has become the resistant trendline to beat for the ETH price to rally to new highs. Related Reading: Dormant Whale Sells $80,000 BTC, But Bitcoin Bulls Still In Control Over the last four years, this resistance trendline has held firmly, beating the Ethereum price back down from the $4,000 level. This has prevented a rally toward its $4,800 and made the $5,000 expected target push even farther away. But now, there could be another opportunity for Ethereum to turn the tide and break this resistance once and for all. Currently, the ETH price is still trending below $4,000, suggesting that the bears are still holding the resistance line. With the price trading below this resistance, MMCrypto points out that ETH has now been underperforming for four years. Given this, a large number of investors have lost money on their investments or haven’t seen a profit. The major target now is for the resistance to be broken. The crypto analyst explains that once this happens, then the Ethereum price could see a monumental pump from here. This pump, he explains, will be fueled by investors who have yet to realize any profit on their ETH holdings over the last four years. Related Reading: XRP Bullish Cross Playing Out Again: $9 Or $24 Next? With the expectation that the resistance trendline will be broken, the analyst urges investors to be patient. He points out that once the pump begins, those who were patient will be the ones to reap the profits of this ETH price action. Additionally, Ethereum will not be the only altcoin to benefit from a pump. Previous altcoin seasons have been sparked by movements in the Ethereum price, and if ETH is able to break toward a new all-time high, then the altcoin market is expected to follow suit. “The Ethereum Pump if & when it happens, will have a broad influence on the whole Crypto Space & take many Altcoins with it! Be ready, be prepared,” the analyst said in closing. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

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

Ethereum (ETH) is once again at the center of investor attention, pulling in a staggering $1.59 billion in inflows over the past week. This marks the second-largest weekly inflow in Ethereum’s history, amid growing optimism that U.S. regulators will soon approve a spot Ethereum ETF. Overall, digital asset investment products attracted $1.9 billion, marking 15 consecutive weeks of positive flows.

Ethereum price trends to the upside on the daily chart, following a multi month downtrend. Source: ETHUSD on Tradingview Meanwhile, Bitcoin ETPs faced $175 million in outflows, signaling a capital rotation from BTC to ETH and other altcoins. Analysts point to the passage of the Genius and Clarity Acts in the U.S. as key drivers of this trend, enhancing regulatory clarity for altcoin investment vehicles. BlackRock and SharpLink Boost Ethereum Exposure Institutional investors are doubling down. BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum ETF (ETHA) surged past $10 billion in AUM, becoming the third-fastest-growing ETF globally, while the firm raised its ETH holdings to $10.47 billion, with 100% of its crypto exposure now allocated to Ethereum. Simultaneously, Nasdaq-listed SharpLink Gaming purchased 77,210 ETH worth approximately $295 million, raising its total ETH treasury to over 438,000 ETH. This single purchase surpassed the network’s entire 30-day ETH issuance, underscoring the aggressive accumulation trend among institutions. Technical Indicators and Risks Remain Ethereum’s rally is further supported by bullish technical signals. A “golden cross” pattern emerged, and the MACD shows strong upward momentum, despite an overbought RSI reading of 82.07, a level often associated with potential price pullbacks. Related Reading: TRON Sees $1B USDT Mint: Liquidity Wave Incoming? Solana and XRP also saw inflows of $311 million and $189 million, respectively, while Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash experienced minor outflows. Meanwhile, Ethereum’s on-chain activity surged 288%, reinforcing confidence in the network’s role as the leading smart contract and DeFi platform. As regulatory momentum builds and ETF approval appears within reach, Ethereum’s dominance in institutional portfolios signals a pivotal moment for altcoin adoption—though short-term volatility remains a factor to watch.

Ethereum is steadily gaining ground as Bitcoin’s dominance continues to decline, signaling a quiet shift in market power. As ETH captures a larger share of the crypto landscape, key support and resistance levels are now in focus, pointing to potential for further upside. Ethereum Captures Larger Market Slice as BTC Weakens In a recent update on X, The Boss pointed out that Ethereum’s dominance in the crypto market is steadily increasing, aligning with previous expectations. As Bitcoin dominance begins to slip, Ethereum is gaining momentum, gradually capturing a larger share of the total market capitalization. This shift highlights the growing confidence in Ethereum’s relative strength compared to Bitcoin under current market conditions. Related Reading: Billionaire Mike Novogratz Says Ethereum Will Enter Price Discovery If It Takes Out This Level The Boss also emphasized the technical significance of a green line marked on the dominance chart, identifying it as a key support zone. As long as Ethereum dominance remains above this level, the bullish outlook remains intact. This support has previously acted as a reliable floor during past consolidations, and holding above it could provide the foundation for further gains in dominance. Attention is now turning to potential resistance zones, which The Boss illustrated using yellow lines derived from Fibonacci retracement levels. These levels represent likely areas where ETH dominance could face selling pressure or hesitation. However, surpassing them could indicate further strengthening of Ethereum’s position in the market. Overall, The Boss’s analysis suggests that the decline in Bitcoin dominance may be fueling Ethereum’s rise, and the technical setup remains favorable for ETH as long as it stays above the highlighted support. ETH Eyes Key Resistance Zone At $3,900 Within Rising Channel Thomas Anderson recently shared his analysis of the ETHUSD H1 chart, observing that Ethereum was trading at $3,851.25 and approaching a key resistance zone between $3,876 and $3,900. Price action is unfolding within an ascending channel, with the upper yellow line marking a critical resistance area. Related Reading: Ethereum Could Shoot Above $4,000 This Week, Predicts Analyst He further noted that the 200-day moving average, represented by the red line on the chart, is offering dynamic support around the $2,900 level. This moving average has played a crucial role in sustaining the uptrend and remains an important level to monitor in case of a retracement. The analyst highlighted that Ethereum is now testing the upper boundary of a larger ascending channel, with the $3,287.74 level acting as a solid support zone in the 4H context. Anderson emphasized that this level has served as a major floor during recent consolidations, indicating that any near-term pullback may stabilize there. While the trend remains bullish, ETH could face a temporary dip at current levels before a sustained breakout above the $3,900 area. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com
Crypto analyst BATMAN has revealed that Ethereum is primed to make a parabolic run to a new all-time high (ATH) of $5,000. The analyst also mentioned the first resistance that ETH needs to break to reach this psychological level. Ethereum Ready To Break Out And Reach $5,000 In an X post, BATMAN noted that Ethereum is ready to break out of a massive consolidation and rally towards $5,000. He stated that the first resistance is between $4,000 and $4,200. Once that is done, there is no resistance until between $4,800 and $5,000, which could spark this rally to the $5,000 psychological level. Related Reading: Crypto Founder Reveals What Will Drive Ethereum Price To $10,000 The analyst declared that Ethereum is still in bullish territory and outperforming Bitcoin. As such, he believes any dips from here could be strong buy zones. Indeed, ETH is currently outperforming BTC. The former is up over 61% in the last 30 days while the latter is up just 11% during this period. It is also worth noting that Ethereum is already looking to reclaim the first resistance between $4,000 and $4,200. The largest altcoin by market just recently broke above $3,900 and is now looking to touch $4,000 for the first time since November last year. Crypto analyst Titan of Crypto also indicated that a parabolic move may be on the horizon for ETH. In an X post, he stated that the ETH/BTC chart is heading to the reload zone, which could spark a massive breakout for Ethereum. His accompanying chart showed that the altcoin could rally to between $7,300 and $8,700 on this move. This suggests that a rally to $5,000, as predicted by BATMAN, is unlikely to signal the top for ETH in this market cycle. ETH Dominance Also On The Rise In an X post, crypto analyst Rekt Capital revealed that Ethereum’s dominance is on the rise, increasing to around 12% for the first time in five years. He noted that the last time the ETH dominance reached 12% was exactly five years ago, in July 2020. With this latest increase, Rekt Capital stated that the altcoin’s dominance is now looking to reach as high as 14%.

Ethereum is entering a powerful new chapter in its market cycle. After months of prolonged selling pressure and underperformance, ETH has staged a remarkable comeback, rallying over 175% since late April. This surge marks a turning point for the second-largest cryptocurrency, as it regains momentum and investor attention. Related Reading: $4B Increase In Bitcoin Open Interest Fueled By Whale Transfers To Exchanges – Details According to data from CryptoQuant, Ethereum Open Interest on CME Futures has now reached an all-time high—signaling heightened institutional activity and growing market engagement. This sharp increase in derivatives exposure often precedes further volatility, hinting that traders are positioning for larger moves ahead. While the overall trend remains bullish, with on-chain and derivatives data pointing toward continued strength, some analysts warn that the market may be approaching overbought conditions. Speculation is growing around a potential correction or spike in volatility as Ethereum approaches key psychological resistance zones. Still, with ETH reclaiming leadership over Bitcoin in recent weeks and altcoins beginning to move in tandem, many view this renewed momentum as the start of a broader altcoin cycle. Ethereum Leads The Way Ethereum is gaining significant momentum, both technically and fundamentally. According to crypto analyst Maartunn, ETH Open Interest on CME Futures has reached an all-time high of $7.85 billion. This spike in interest coincides with a pivotal moment for crypto regulation in the US. The recent passage of the GENIUS Act and the Clarity for Payment Stablecoins Act by Congress marks a turning point in legal clarity for digital assets. These legislative wins create a friendlier environment for Ethereum-based applications, particularly in DeFi, where many protocols had previously operated in legal uncertainty. With a more defined regulatory path, Ethereum stands to benefit as developers and capital increasingly move onshore. At the same time, Ethereum has shown notable strength against Bitcoin. ETH/BTC has been trending higher over the past few weeks, reinforcing the perception that ETH could lead the next leg of the market cycle. This shift is important—especially as investors rotate from Bitcoin into altcoins. Related Reading: Ethereum Whales Accumulate Over $4.1B In ETH In Two Weeks – Details Price Action Details Ethereum continues its bullish trend, currently trading near $3,753 after a breakout rally that began in late April. The 3-day chart reveals a significant price expansion above the key resistance level at $2,852, now acting as support. ETH is consolidating just below the $3,860 resistance, which marks the final barrier before the psychological $4,000 level—last tested in late 2021 and again in late 2023. All major moving averages—the 50, 100, and 200—are now trending upward and stacked in a bullish configuration. Price action is well above these levels, indicating strong market momentum. Volume has also surged during the rally, suggesting real conviction behind this move rather than speculative noise.

That said, as long as ETH holds above $2,850, the bullish structure remains intact. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Ethereum has been gaining ground in recent times, especially among institutional investors, as they believe that the leading altcoin is set to outperform Bitcoin. This is evidenced by the large buys that have dominated ETH as Ethereum treasury companies become a major player in the space. Amid this, billionaire and CEO of Galaxy Digital Investments, Mike Novogratz, has revealed the important level for Ethereum to beat to enter price discovery. Ethereum Price Needs To Cross $4,000 În an interview with SquawkBox, Novogratz points to the recent strength of Ethereum amid rapid accumulation as a reason for it being a better bet than Bitcoin. The major reason outlined for why ETH was a better bet than BTC at this point is the fact that Ethereum treasury companies are now becoming a staple, with two ETH treasury companies, such as SharpLink and GameSquare Holdings, among others, already established and more on the way. Related Reading: XRP Price Showing Quiet Strength As Next Breakout Level Lies At $4.65 As these companies continue to accumulate ETH, the billionaire explains that with not much supply, the Ethereum price is likely to rise. He also brings up the fact that Ethereum has a very powerful narrative, and the market reaching record short levels has also aided its bullishness. Given these, Novogratz explained that the Ethereum price is at least destined to knock on the $4,000 level a few times. Also, once the altcoin is able to take out $4,000, then the billionaire believes that the ETH price will enter into price discovery, which could drive it higher. As Ethereum continues to look like the better bet, he also believes that the altcoin could end up outperforming the Bitcoin price over the next 3-6 months. This gives a short timeframe, especially as Bitcoin has already hit multiple new all-time highs over the past year, and Ethereum is yet to beat its highs from 2021. ETH Is Already Outperforming Bitcoin So far, in the month of July, the Ethereum price has greatly outperformed that of Bitcoin in terms of gains, lending credence to Novogratz’s expectations that the altcoin will outperform the pioneer cryptocurrency. According to data from CryptoRank, ETH is up more than 45% this month already compared to the less than 8% on record for Bitcoin. Related Reading: This Ethereum Descending Broadening Wedge Pattern Looks Similar To 2019-2020, Here’s What Happened Last Time Over the last 90 days, as well, the Ethereum price has doubled to put in more than 100% in gains.

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.

Ethereum is showing renewed strength after a sharp but short-lived pullback. Following its recent high of $3,860, ETH dipped to the $3,500 zone — a key level that quickly attracted buying interest. Now, price action is pointing upward again, with Ethereum pushing to reclaim the $3,700 range, signaling bullish momentum may be back in control. Related Reading: Bitcoin LTHs Start Distributing: CDD Ratio Hits Historic Levels Despite the recent volatility, on-chain data support the case for continued upside. According to Santiment, whales have been aggressively accumulating ETH throughout the pullback. This surge in accumulation suggests that institutional players are positioning themselves ahead of the next leg of the rally, anticipating strength in the coming months. These strategic inflows have historically preceded sustained upward trends. The resilience around the $3,500 level, combined with the swift recovery attempt, underscores Ethereum’s strong bullish structure. With a favorable macro environment, regulatory clarity, and mounting institutional interest, Ethereum appears poised for continued expansion as the second half of the year unfolds. All eyes are now on whether this bounce holds and leads to a renewed breakout above resistance. Whales Add Ethereum as US Legal Clarity Boosts Bullish Outlook Ethereum’s bullish momentum is being reinforced by aggressive accumulation from major investors. According to analyst Ali Martinez, whales have purchased more than 1.13 million ETH—worth approximately $4.18 billion—over the past two weeks. This surge in buying activity marks one of the most significant accumulation phases in recent months and signals rising confidence among institutional players. The accumulation comes at a critical time for Ethereum, which has been consolidating near the $3,700 level after a brief pullback from its $3,860 high. This whale activity not only adds fuel to the ongoing price recovery but also strengthens Ethereum’s bullish structure heading into the second half of the year. Beyond market behavior, macro and regulatory shifts are also favoring Ethereum and the broader altcoin market. The recent passage of the GENIUS Act and Clarity Act by the US Congress marks a pivotal moment for crypto legislation. These new laws offer long-sought legal clarity for decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms and digital assets, encouraging US-based innovation and capital flows into the space. This evolving regulatory framework removes one of the biggest barriers for institutional adoption of Ethereum and DeFi. With clearer rules and a growing appetite for ETH among whales, the stage is set for a potentially explosive rally if current momentum holds. Related Reading: Bitcoin STH Realized Price Chart Reveals Key Defense Zones Amid Volatility ETH Holds Strong After Pullback Ethereum (ETH) is showing renewed strength after a brief correction from its local top at $3,860. As seen in the 4-hour chart, ETH dipped to $3,500 but quickly bounced, reclaiming the $3,700 zone and closing in on key resistance at $3,776 and $3,860. This rebound indicates strong buyer interest and resilience in the uptrend. The price is now trading above all major moving averages (50, 100, and 200), which are stacked bullishly. The 50-SMA at $3,648 has provided dynamic support in recent sessions, while the 100-SMA and 200-SMA at $3,304 and $2,883, respectively, remain far below current price action—underscoring the strength of this upward move.

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.

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. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com
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.

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
A new report from Glassnode has revealed a historically significant Ethereum level that could mark the start of an overheated phase if breached. Ethereum Is Moving Towards Active Realized Price In its latest weekly report, the on-chain analytics firm Glassnode has talked about some valuation models for Ethereum. The models in question are the Realized Price, True Market Mean, and Active Realized Price. Related Reading: XRP Whales Move $759M In Token: What Are They Up To? The first of these, the Realized Price, refers to the average cost basis or acquisition price of all tokens of the cryptocurrency that are currently part of the circulating supply. The other two models, the True Market Mean and Active Realized Price, also aim to find the network cost basis, but both of these exclude for the long-dormant coins. Such tokens are likely to be lost due to missing wallets keys, so they aren’t part of the economic supply. Thus, these models may provide for a more accurate measure of the market situation than the Realized Price. Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the three on-chain pricing models for Ethereum over the last few years: As displayed in the above graph, the Ethereum Realized Price, True Market Mean, and Active Investor Price are situated around $2,100, $2,500, and $3,000, respectively. This means that at ETH’s current spot value, all models agree that the holders as a whole are in the green. But now that the asset has escaped above these lines, what could be next? “In order to gauge upside targets for this ETH rally, we can turn to the +1 standard deviation band of Ethereum’s Active Realized Price,” notes Glassnode. The +1 standard deviation (SD) band of the indicator happens to be where selling pressure has intensified in the past. The reason behind the trend may lie in the fact that investor profits become significant beyond this boundary, so mass selloffs with the purpose of profit-taking can become more likely to take place. Below is a chart that shows where this level currently lies for ETH. From the graph, it’s visible that the Ethereum Active Realized Price +1 SD is located at $4,500 today. ETH is currently still at a distance from the level, but if its recent bullish push continues, it might end up retesting it. In the current cycle so far, ETH has tested the boundary once, in March 2024. Back then, the cryptocurrency found rejection at it. In the 2021 bull run, the coin was able to surge past it, but in doing so, it kicked off the unsustainable euphoria market phase.

ETH Price At the time of writing, Ethereum is floating around $3,600, up almost 7% in the last seven days. Featured image from Dall-E, Glassnode.com, chart from TradingView.com
Bitcoin’s recent price action reflects a consolidation phase rather than a decisive move in either direction. After briefly touching an all-time high of over $123,000 earlier this month, BTC has seen a gradual pullback, currently trading around $118,000 at the time of writing. This represents a 1.1% drop in the last 24 hours and a 3.9% decline from its peak, as traders evaluate whether the current market structure suggests a continuation or a correction. According to new insights from CryptoQuant contributors, indicators present a split narrative. Some metrics suggest rising optimism among traders, while others indicate a more cautious and holding-focused environment. Related Reading: Trump Shares Viral Bitcoin Breakdown — Here’s What He Posted Surge in Long Positions Raises Contrarian Concerns CryptoQuant contributor BorisVest highlighted a notable spike in the long/short sentiment ratio on Binance, showing a growing preference among traders for long positions. This metric, which tracks the volume of long versus short positions on the exchange, has tilted significantly bullish within the $116,000–$120,000 price range. He noted that during Bitcoin’s previous consolidation between $100,000 and $110,000, sentiment leaned toward short positions, a setup that preceded a breakout to the upside and a wave of short liquidations. This time, however, the environment has flipped. BorisVest explained: Now that sentiment is skewed heavily toward longs, the same principle could apply in reverse. When the majority positions in one direction, it often creates a setup for the opposite move. The current range is acting as a trap zone, where traders’ expectations are repeatedly tested. The historical tendency for sentiment extremes to precede contrary price action has prompted some analysts to advise caution, suggesting that growing bullish bias could lead to a temporary reversal if met with enough liquidity pressure. Bitcoin Exchange Flow Patterns Reflect Investor Patience While Binance sentiment data leans bullish, another key on-chain indicator paints a different picture. CryptoQuant analyst Arab Chain examined the Bitcoin Flow Pulse (IFP) indicator, which tracks BTC movements to centralized exchanges. Related Reading: Bitcoin Must Defend This Key Support For $180,000 Year-End Target, Analyst Says According to the data, despite Bitcoin’s recent high above $120,000, there has not been a corresponding spike in exchange inflows, suggesting that investors are not rushing to take profits or exit the market. This behavior contrasts with historical cycles in 2017 and 2021, where price peaks were accompanied by large exchange inflows and followed by corrections. Arab Chain wrote: The market now shows a consolidating trend, with reduced selling pressure. The low flow to exchanges indicates confidence among holders and suggests that many participants are expecting the uptrend to continue. Still, he cautioned that a shift in the IFP indicator, such as a sudden rise in exchange flows, could act as an early warning for increased supply pressure.

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
Ethereum (ETH) is attempting to reclaim its most critical resistance after registering a nearly 70% rally in the past month. Some crypto analysts suggest that the King of Altcoins is preparing to aim for new highs, but warned a potential pullback might come first. Related Reading: PENGU Leads Top Memecoin List Amid 20% Daily Surge – What’s Behind The Rally? Ethereum Risks 15% Correction Ethereum started the week hitting a yearly high and recording a 178% recovery from the April lows. The cryptocurrency has seen a significant rally over the past few weeks, following its price breakout and consolidation between May and June. As the crypto market started to soar again this month, driven by Bitcoin’s climb to new all-time highs (ATHs), ETH reclaimed the crucial $3,000 barrier and has continued to rise to its most critical resistance around the $3,800 area. On Monday, Ethereum reached its yearly high of $3,860 before being rejected and retracing to the $3,600 area. Following this performance, analyst Ali Martinez suggested that the $3,835 resistance and the $3,490 support will likely determine Ethereum’s next move. Notably, the $3,825 area sits as the largest resistance ahead, where 2.82 million addresses have bought 1.48 million ETH. Reclaiming this level would set the stage for a rally to the cycle high of $4,107. Meanwhile, the $3,490 area, where 4.18 million addresses bought 3.53 million ETH, remains the largest support after the recent breakout. A strong rejection from the key resistance could send the price toward this area if the current levels don’t hold. Market Watcher Andrew Crypto considers that Ethereum will likely see a correction soon, as “a chart without a correction isn’t a healthy chart.” To the analyst, the cryptocurrency could be headed to its yearly opening (YO) area, between $3,300-$3,400, after being rejected from the local supply zone and major resistance. Nonetheless, he forecasted a bounce and retest of the $3,800 mark if the pullback occurs. ETH To Repeat Past Cycle’s Playbook? Analyst Crypto Bullet suggested that Ethereum’s performance resembles its price action from last cycle. According to the post, ETH’s chart is starting to form a Descending Broadening Wedge pattern, “almost identical” to its setup from 2019-2020. To the analyst, “The picture looks very bullish right now” as price is testing the pattern’s resistance for the third time. He believes it will break out this time, similar to what happened in 2020, and eyes a cycle top target between $8,000 and $10,000. Crypto Bullet warned that a 10%-15% pullback to the $3,300-$3,400 area could come first, but added that “If we do break this formidable Resistance, ETH will rally hard. In this case, a new ATH is guaranteed.” Similarly, Merlijn The Trader highlighted the similarities between Ethereum’s rally in 2017 and 2025, as the King of Altcoin shows the “Same range. Same fakeout. Same breakout.” Related Reading: Tron Outpaces Ethereum In Fee Revenue – TRX Burn Accelerates The trader noted that ETH retested the key resistance twice in 2016-2017 before breaking out and recording a 5,000% rally. To him, the cryptocurrency could have a similar performance this cycle as institutions are “behind the wheel.” As of this writing, ETH is trading at $3,698, a 21% increase in the weekly timeframe.

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. Featured image from Pixabay, chart from Tradingview.com
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
