Ethereum’s Price Surge and ETF Momentum Ethereum (ETH) price reached $4,017 this week, marking a 26% monthly increase and a 7% weekly gain. While ETH price today dipped 3% in the last 24 hours to $3,852, the bullish sentiment remains intact. Analysts attribute the momentum partly to robust ETF inflows, which have provided significant market support. On-chain analyst Ali suggests Ethereum could approach record levels, with the next significant resistance near $4,540. However, they emphasize the importance of holding support at $3,560 to maintain the bullish momentum. If this trend continues, it may be on track for even greater price breakthroughs.
