Ethereum Price Hits Support

Ethereum price failed to extend gains above the $3,450 zone and started a downside correction like Bitcoin. ETH declined below the $3,320 and $3,250 support levels.

The bears even pushed the price below the $3,120 zone. It tested the $3,000 support zone. A low was formed at $3,031 and the price is now consolidating losses. It might soon test the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $3,340 swing high to the $3,031 low.

Ethereum price is now trading below $3,200 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $3,120 level.

The first major resistance is near the $3,200 level. There is also a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $3,185 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The main resistance is now forming near $3,265 or the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $3,340 swing high to the $3,031 low.

A clear move above the $3,265 resistance might send the price toward the $3,320 resistance. An upside break above the $3,320 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $3,450 resistance zone.

More Losses In ETH?

If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,200 resistance, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,040 level. The first major support sits near the $3,000 zone.

A clear move below the $3,000 support might push the price toward $2,950. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,880 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $2,740.

Bitcoin briefly loses 2025 gains as crypto plunges over the weekend.Bitcoin experienced a sharp decline this weekend, briefly erasing its 2025 gains and dipping below its year-opening value of $93,507. The cryptocurrency fell to a low of $93,029 on Sunday, representing a 25% drop from its all-time high in October. Although it has rebounded slightly to around $94,209, the pressures on the market remain significant. The downturn occurred despite the reopening of the U.S. government on Thursday, which many had hoped would provide essential support for crypto markets. This year initially appeared promising for cryptocurrencies, particularly after the inauguration of President Donald Trump, who has established the most pro-crypto administration thus far. However, ongoing political tensions—including Trump's tariff strategies and the recent government shutdown, lasting a historic 43 days—have contributed to several rapid price pullbacks for Bitcoin throughout the year. Market dynamics are also being influenced by Bitcoin whales—investors holding large amounts of Bitcoin—who have been offloading portions of their assets, consequently stalling price rallies even as positive regulatory developments emerge. Despite these sell-offs, analysts from Glassnode argue that this behavior aligns with typical patterns seen among long-term investors during the concluding stages of bull markets, suggesting it is not indicative of a mass exodus. Notably, Bitcoin is not alone in its struggles, as Ethereum and Solana have also recorded declines of 7.95% and 28.3%, respectively, since the start of the year, while numerous altcoins have faced even steeper losses. Looking ahead, questions linger regarding the viability of the four-year cycle thesis, particularly given the increasing institutional support and regulatory frameworks now in place in the crypto landscape. Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, remains optimistic, suggesting a potential Bitcoin resurgence in 2026 driven by the “debasement trade” thesis and a broader trend toward increased adoption of stablecoins, tokenization, and decentralized finance. Hougan emphasized the soundness of the underlying fundamentals, pointing to a positive outlook for the sector in the longer term.
