For their part, X user TRACER <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DeFiTracer\/status\/2097614487331487843\">noted<\/a> that the asset has recently tested the $2,500-$2,550 range six times, with each rejection getting weaker.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis resistance will break soon,\u201d they predicted.<\/p>\n<p>MikybullCrypto appears to be the biggest optimist. The analyst <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MikybullCrypto\/status\/2097580052829311085\">opined<\/a> that a \u201cmega breakout\u201d of the nine-year trendline resistance is on the way, setting the stage for a possible explosion to a new all-time high of $9,000.<\/p>\n<p>The declining amount of ETH stored on exchanges supports the bullish theory. Just a few days ago, Ali Martinez <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ethereum-breakout-incoming-300m-in-eth-leaves-exchanges-as-analyst-eyes-next-big-target\/\">disclosed<\/a> that over 116,000 coins (worth nearly $300 million) were withdrawn from centralized platforms in 48 hours.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith exchange supply shrinking this aggressively, the setup for a major move is getting interesting,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>The analyst also highlighted the major support zone around $2,475, where roughly 2.86 million ETH have previously exchanged hands. \u201cAs long as this level holds, the path toward $2,722 remains relatively clear,\u201d Martinez said.<\/p>\n<p>The growing institutional demand reinforces the bullish perspective. Last week, spot ETH ETFs <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ethereum-breakout-incoming-300m-in-eth-leaves-exchanges-as-analyst-eyes-next-big-target\/\">attracted<\/a> almost $220 million, and cumulative total net inflows now surpass $13.17 billion.<\/p>\n<h2>Pullback Ahead?<\/h2>\n<p>X user Void <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/VoidOnChain\/status\/2097338776309699012\">claimed<\/a> ETH has formed an inverted head-and-shoulders pattern on the daily chart, and that one leg down will confirm the setup. That said, the analyst expects a potential drop to $2,000, saying that without this move south, \u201cwe can\u2019t go higher.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gerla offered a similar perspective. The analyst <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoGerla\/status\/2097366063235441062\">noted<\/a> the formation of the aforementioned structure, anticipating a short-term correction to around $2K, followed by a major rally above $4,000 in the coming months.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ethereum-eth-at-a-crossroads-jump-to-3000-or-a-plunge-to-2000-comes-next\/\">Ethereum (ETH) at a Crossroads: Jump to $3,000 or a Plunge to $2,000 Comes Next?<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The second-largest cryptocurrency has hovered around $2,500 over the past several days, with some analysts predicting a decisive breakout above that level and a surge to much higher ground.
