Ethereum blasts through resistance as traders pile into bullish bets—can it really hit $5K before September?
### The $4.6K Breakout: Fuel or FOMO?
ETH’s rally defies the usual August slump, leaving skeptics scrambling. Polymarket’s prediction contract now prices a 65% chance of a $5K close—because nothing says 'sound investing' like crowdsourced gambling.
### DeFi’s Silent Rally
While ETH steals headlines, Layer 2 volumes quietly hit record highs. Guess Wall Street hasn’t found a way to short those yet.
### The Cynic’s Corner
Another day, another price surge bankers will call a 'bubble' right until they launch their own crypto desk. Buckle up.
