After losing the $4,450-$4,500 area during the recent market downturn, Ethereum (ETH) is attempting to hold a crucial level as support. Some analysts suggest that the leading altcoin is poised to bounce soon as crypto treasury companies continue to bet on the cryptocurrency.
ETH led the losses with nearly $500 million in liquidations, followed by Bitcoin’s $284 million. This dragged the King of Altcoin’s price to the crucial $4,100 support for the first time since August, hitting a one-month low of $4,077.
This time, Ethereum displays a new textbook setup with a multi-year descending triangle formation, which was broken out of last month and is currently being retested as support. According to the market watcher, ETH could see a 2021-like breakout toward the $10,000 barrier.
BitMine’s chairman, Thomas “Tom” Lee, stated that the company continues “to believe Ethereum is one of the biggest macro trades over the next 10-15 years,” adding that “Wall Street and AI moving onto the blockchain should lead to a greater transformation of today’s financial system. And the majority of this is taking place on Ethereum.”
As of this writing, ETH is trading at $4,145, an 8% decline in the weekly timeframe.
