Fashion

Even though Bitcoin’s price recently dropped, Ethereum (ETH) is still holding steady above $2,600. Many believe this could be a sign that Ethereum is getting ready to rise, possibly kicking off a new altcoin season.


📊 Ethereum Price Update

Ethereum is currently trading around $2,625, after a small dip of about 1.88% on Thursday.

Key levels to watch:

  • Ethereum is staying near the $2,699 mark, which is a strong resistance based on the Fibonacci retracement tool.

  • The next big target is $3,000, a psychological level and also the 61.8% Fibonacci resistance.

  • On the downside, strong support is around $2,395, which is the 38.2% Fibonacci level.

The Supertrend indicator still shows an uptrend, and the RSI (Relative Strength Index) is close to the overbought zone, which means buyers are strong.


🏦 Big Investors Are Buying Ethereum

On May 29, Ethereum ETFs (exchange-traded funds) received $91.93 million in inflows — the 9th day in a row with money flowing in.

Top contributors:

  • BlackRock: $50.45 million

  • Fidelity: $38.31 million

This shows that big institutions believe in Ethereum’s future.


📈 Expert Prediction: ETH to $3,000 Soon?

Popular trader Income Sharks said on Twitter that Ethereum looks very strong. They expected a small pullback after ETH broke the key $2,400 level and now believe the price can reach $3,000 soon — and possibly $4,000 later during the bull market.


📉 What’s Happening in the Derivatives Market?

Some short-term traders are nervous, causing bearish moves in the derivatives market:

  • Open interest (active trades) dropped by 4.83%, now at $35.59 billion.

  • Many traders betting on price increases got liquidated:

    • Long liquidations: $94.23 million

    • Short liquidations: $17.08 million

Even with these sell-offs, the funding rate is still high (0.0083%), showing that many traders are still bullish.


✅ Summary

  • Ethereum is staying strong above $2,600, while Bitcoin struggles.

  • It may soon break above $3,000, if the trend continues.

  • Big investors are adding more ETH through ETFs.

  • The market is a bit shaky short term, but the overall mood is still positive.
