Ethereum just broke above the critical $3,000 level, marking a major technical milestone after surging over 20% since Tuesday. This decisive breakout signals renewed strength in the second-largest cryptocurrency, with bulls reclaiming control after weeks of tight consolidation. The move is reigniting interest across the broader altcoin market, which had remained relatively muted during Bitcoin’s recent rally to all-time highs. Now, with ETH leading the charge, many altcoins are showing signs of reversal and upward momentum. Related Reading: Altcoins Jump Off Critical Support Level – Relief Or Reversal? According to top analyst Ted Pillows, a key factor behind Ethereum’s rally is the large concentration of liquidity resting just above the $3,000 mark. Once Ethereum cleared the $2,850 resistance, momentum rapidly accelerated, driving price through the $3,000 level and into a new range of opportunity. This rally comes amid a broader shift in market sentiment. As Bitcoin sets record highs, Ethereum and other altcoins appear poised to catch up. The big question now: can ETH maintain this level and lead a full altcoin season, or is this just a temporary breakout before another round of consolidation? Ethereum Breaks Out Of Consolidation Range Ethereum has spent the last several weeks consolidating within a clearly defined range that began in early May. The altcoin hovered between support around $2,800 and resistance just below $3,000, with multiple failed attempts to break above. That changed yesterday. ETH finally closed above this key resistance, signaling a potential breakout and confirming the start of a new bullish phase. This move comes as broader macroeconomic conditions improve. Strong labor market data in the US, alongside signs of de-escalation in several global conflicts, have helped reduce uncertainty and reignite risk appetite across financial markets. With Bitcoin reaching new highs and risk-on sentiment returning, Ethereum’s breakout may signal the next wave of upside for altcoins. Top analyst Ted Pillows highlighted a key technical factor: “ETH liquidity is lying above $3,000 — and liquidity is a magnet.” This means that large clusters of buy and stop orders are concentrated above this level, attracting price movement toward those zones. Now that Ethereum has broken past resistance, the presence of high liquidity could accelerate its move upward as traders chase momentum. The breakout also holds symbolic weight. It shows that investors are regaining confidence in Ethereum’s value proposition, particularly with the broader altcoin market showing signs of life. If ETH can hold this breakout and establish $3,000 as new support, the next leg higher could materialize quickly, opening the door to targets in the $3,400–$3,600 range. Related Reading: Ethereum Back At Range Highs: Breakout Above $2,800 Could Ignite Altseason ETH Breaks Major Resistance Ethereum (ETH) has decisively broken above the psychological and technical resistance at $3,000, closing its most recent candle at $3,008.97. This breakout follows a strong 15% daily surge, as seen in the chart, marking a powerful move backed by growing bullish momentum. Volume has expanded significantly, confirming trader conviction and institutional participation in this move. The breakout puts an end to nearly two months of sideways action, with ETH previously locked between the $2,500–$2,850 range. The 200-day simple moving average (SMA), currently near $2,796, was breached with strength, acting as a springboard for price acceleration. The reclaim of this moving average adds technical validation to the breakout and signals the beginning of a new bullish leg. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Action Signals Momentum Shift: BTC Sleeps And ETH Moves ETH is now in a key zone for potential continuation. As long as bulls defend the $2,850–$2,900 level as support, Ethereum has room to rally toward $3,400 and beyond. With Bitcoin trading at all-time highs and macro conditions turning favorable for risk assets, ETH could lead the next wave of altcoin expansion. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

The XRP price could be preparing for a historic breakout, as a prominent crypto pundit has pinpointed two key catalysts that could send the altcoin soaring to new all-time highs. As analyst sentiment flips bullish, and XRP attempts to move out from its prolonged consolidation phase, the stage may be set for the cryptocurrency’s long-awaited price explosion. Factors Set To Send XRP Price To A New ATH JD, a well-known crypto analyst on X (formerly Twitter), has identified two critical technical conditions that could propel the XRP price to a fresh ATH target. According to the expert, XRP’s path to a historic price surge depends on breaking out of a long-standing Falling Wedge pattern and invalidating the EDO Farina indicator. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts 50% “Moonshot” For XRP Price If This Line Breaks The Falling Wedge pattern has held XRP in a tight consolidation phase for an extended period, particularly evident on the weekly chart. JD considers this formation historically bullish when broken to the upside, and XRP is apparently nearing a pivotal point where a breakout could be imminent. Notably, a successful breach of this Falling Wedge pattern would signal renewed bullish momentum and potentially spark a rally toward uncharted price territory. The second factor emphasized by the crypto analyst is the need to render the EDO Farina bearish indicator null and void. JD views this technical signal as a false indicator of sustained downward movement. The market expert maintains a strong and long-standing bullish position on XRP, predicting on multiple occasions that the cryptocurrency could soon skyrocket. In one of his latest price analyses, JD outlined his bullish forecast for XRP, citing his previously accurate call of a 12x rally to $3.37. Confident in his method, the analyst now aims to apply the same strategy to pinpoint the altcoin’s next market top. JD also noted that no major news, hype, or sudden excitement is necessary to drive XRP to a new all-time high. In his view, such events often trap inexperienced traders, causing them to buy high and get “Rekt.” Building on this optimistic outlook, the analyst projects that the altcoin will eventually climb to new levels before crashing by up to 90%. Analyst Forecasts Over 250% Surge For XRP In a bold new analysis, Javon Marks, another prominent crypto analyst, shared a bullish outlook for XRP, predicting a potential price surge of over 251% from its current level. According to the market expert, historical price behavior and long-term chart patterns indicate that XRP may be on the cusp of entering its next significant upward leg, with targets set at $9.631. Related Reading: XRP Price About To Explode: XRPBTC Could Repeat 2017 Fractal Notably, XRP’s bullish target is not confined to this level.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) might be on the verge of a powerful rally, according to crypto analyst MasterAnanda, who believes the popular meme coin could climb more than 1,500% in this cycle. The analyst predicts SHIB may cancel another zero and reach a new all-time high if a few key levels are cleared. Related Reading: Bitcoin 30-Day Average Funding Rate Drops – Bullish Setup Takes Shape Signs Of A Possible Reversal SHIB has been stuck in a downtrend since March 2024. It peaked at $0.000045 before sliding back to close that month at $0.000030. Since then, the coin has moved within a descending triangle pattern, bouncing around the base while facing strong bearish pressure. However, something may be changing. SHIB has just printed a fully green weekly candle and gained 15% over the past seven days. According to analysts, this is one of the most bullish weekly moves since early May, when the token jumped 25%. Despite the optimism, SHIB remains below its 200-day moving average, which sits at $0.000016. That’s around 19% higher than its current price of $0.000013. Analysts see this as a critical level the token must beat to confirm a long-term bullish trend. Bullish Price Targets Appear On The Chart MasterAnanda believes SHIB will break above the triangle and make a run toward $0.000032, aligning with the 0.50 Fibonacci retracement level. If that plays out, the analyst sees a further move to $0.000067, then to $0.00010, which would represent a new all-time high. From there, two more possible targets have emerged using Fibonacci extensions: $0.00017 and $0.00022. Those would mark gains of 1,180% and 1,529%, respectively. While ambitious, other analysts have also supported a similar price path based on the same descending triangle breakout. Shiba Inu Sentiment Mixed As Greed Index Climbs Although bullish targets are grabbing headlines, market sentiment is still uncertain. Based on recent data, SHIB recorded green days on just 13 out of the last 30, and showed 4.25% price volatility. The current reading for sentiment is “Neutral” and the Fear & Greed Index stands at 69, which is in the “Greed” category. Price prediction tools indicate that SHIB could increase 27% to August 10, 2025, at about $0.000017. That will bring it nearer to its MA-200, but still far from the lofty targets being predicted by some analysts. Related Reading: Ethereum Back At Range Highs: Breakout Above $2,800 Could Ignite Altseason SHIB holders are now waiting to see what’s next. Will the triangle breakout occur in a hurry, or will resistance levels hold the token below major technicals? The coming weeks may provide the answers.

SUI is positioned for further upside, and backed by technical momentum and solid volume support. However, maintaining the price above the key moving averages will be crucial for the continuation of this bullish run. Volume Spikes Confirm Breakout Strength According to Gemxbt’s post on X, the SUI 1-hour chart is showing a strong uptrend, with the price trading above the 5, 10, and 20-day moving averages, which is a sign of short-term momentum and sustained buyer strength. Related Reading: SUI Prints Classic Reversal Setup With Triple Top Formation The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is approaching overbought territory, which warns of a potential short-term pullback and suggests that traders should be cautious of a temporary pause as the market digests recent gains. Meanwhile, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is bullish with a widening gap between the MACD line and the signal line. This expansion often precedes continuation in trending markets and confirms that momentum is accelerating. Trading volume has increased notably alongside price movement. The rising volume during an uptrend suggests that the move is a genuine market participation. Analyst LORD ATU also stated that SUI is trading at $2.90 on the daily chart, with a solid 9.69% weekly gain, and showing clear signs of bullish momentum. The price action falling wedge pattern is typically a bullish continuation signal with a potential target at $3.20, and if confirmed with volume, a breakout will follow through. However, a bearish head and shoulders formation is also beginning to emerge, which is signaling a potential drop toward the $2.30 support zone, which is a level of prior structure and support. LORD ATU noted that the key levels to watch out for are the support at $2.88, which is a crucial short-term floor that must hold to maintain the uptrend, and resistance at $3.15, where a clear break could trigger momentum higher. The SUI ecosystem growth looks strong, with increasing development activity and solid fundamentals. However, an upcoming token unlock could introduce fresh supply pressure and volatility. Momentum Accelerates After Consolidation Phase Another Analyst, Profit Demon, also mentioned on X that SUI has completed a bullish flag pattern breakout on the 3-day chart, which is signaling a shift in market sentiment after a period of consolidation. This continuation pattern often marks the end of sideways movement and the resumption of an existing uptrend.
