Ethereum Rally Far from Over: What's Next for ETH?

Ethereum's bull run shows no signs of slowing—defying skeptics and leaving traditional finance scrambling to catch up.

Technical Breakthroughs Fuel Momentum

The merge's success continues paying dividends, with scalability solutions cutting gas fees to pocket change. Layer-2 adoption skyrockets—Arbitrum and Optimism process more transactions than the mainnet itself.

Institutional Floodgates Open

BlackRock's ETH ETF approval triggers a stampede of traditional capital. Pension funds and asset managers—once crypto's loudest critics—now scramble for exposure while pretending they understood Web3 all along.

Defi Summer 2.0

Yield farms pump out double-digit APY again, though everyone politely ignores how similar this looks to 2021. NFT volumes triple as digital art becomes the new status flex for finance bros.

Regulatory Clarity Boosts Confidence

The SEC's sudden embrace of ETH as a commodity—not a security—sends shockwaves through markets. Banking giants launch staking services, collecting fees on assets they mocked three years ago.

Where ETH Goes From Here

Targets now point toward $10K—a number that would've seemed delusional last year. The real question isn't if ETH hits new highs, but how many traditional finance firms will rebrand as 'blockchain innovators' on the way up.

Total2 primed for a bounce

The Total2 chart is an excellent barometer of the health of the altcoins. It tracks the price movement of the combined market cap of all cryptos, excluding $BTC. It can be seen in the weekly chart above that strong horizontal support has been found, and that this coincides with an ascending trendline. Once the current dip is over, of which there are signs, a strong push up in Total2 past the resistance at $1.64 trillion WOULD signal a lift in the altcoins, with $ETH being one of the major beneficiaries. The all-time high is just overhead for Total2 at $1.69 trillion.

$ETH short-term higher highs and higher lows

The daily chart for $ETH shows the price rising serenely. It’s looking like a higher low is just being put in, and this should combine well with the recent higher high. The Stochastic RSI indicators are heading downwards, but another day or two could see them turn back around, signalling upside momentum for the price.

$ETH back to all-time high and beyond?

The weekly chart for $ETH bodes well for more upside price action. The all-time high that stretched all the way back to the end of 2021 has now been surpassed, so once $ETH gets back above $4,950 price discovery can continue.

The Stochastic RSI indicators are snaking along the top of their range, and the MACD indicators are continuing to rise, with higher green bars being printed in the histogram.

$ETH up 125% against $BTC

Against its $BTC pair (ETH/BTC), $ETH is still doing the business. Up 125% from the bottom, $ETH has recently come back to confirm 0.04 BTC as the latest support level. As can be seen in the chart, the next levels for ETH/BTC to surpass are 0.045 BTC, 0.05 BTC, and 0.06 BTC.

ETH/BTC hits powerful descending trendline - breakout or rejection?

Moving out into the weekly time frame for ETH/BTC a cautionary note is evident. The ETH/BTC pair has just hit a very powerful descending trendline. Whether $ETH is able to surpass this could have a big impact on how successful the rest of its bull market will be. 

The Stochastic RSI indicators at the bottom of the chart are bunching up and could be about to come back down. If they do so, expect the price to also come down.
