Ethereum (ETH) Price Jumps 5% Moving Closer to $4,000, New All-Time High Soon?
Ethereum bulls are turning active once again before the spot Ether ETFs go live for trading in the coming two months. In the last 24 hours, the Ethereum (ETH) price has bounced back again by 5% and is currently trading at $3,957 with a market cap of $469 billion. Also, the daily trading volumes for Ethereum have skyrocketed by 68% to nearly $17 billion.
Ethereum (ETH) Price Eyes Breakout Above $4,000
Rekt Capital, a prominent crypto analyst, stated that Ethereum (ETH) requires a weekly close above $3956 to move into the $4000+ range. Currently, ETH is forming a lower high, but it has spent significant time around the $2791 level, historically a precursor to an upside movement back to approximately $4000.
Rekt Capital emphasized that a weekly close above the orange box level is inevitable and will confirm that the bulls have regained momentum. The analyst’s observations highlight the critical thresholds ETH must surpass to continue its bullish trajectory.
Soon after the news of the spot Ether ETF last week, the ETH price consolidated for a while before resuming the recent uptrend. On the weekly chart, Ethereum poses a healthy 27% gain suggesting a solid uptrend going ahead.
ETH Price to Reach $4,500 Before ETF Goes Live
Arthur, the founder of DeFiance Capital, predicts that Ethereum (ETH) will reach $4,500 before the commencement of spot ETH ETF trading. Supporting this optimistic outlook, a survey by WuBlockchain within the Chinese community reveals that 58% of respondents believe ETH can surge to $10,000 or more in the current market cycle.
