According to BlockBeats, despite a recent pullback in Bitcoin, Ethereum's price remains stable. Analysts suggest that favorable market conditions this week could accelerate its upward momentum, potentially driving it to $5,000. Several bullish fundamentals are at play, including the possible approval of a U.S. spot Ethereum ETF with staking features, significant growth in existing ETF inflows, and increasing purchases of Ethereum by digital asset treasuries.
While the overall market sentiment is optimistic, Republic Technologies CEO Daniel Liu expressed uncertainty about when Ethereum might decisively break the $4,000 barrier. He highlighted the "leveraged buying demand around $3,500" and "significant selling pressure near $4,000" as factors that could keep Ethereum trading within a range in the short term.
However, Liu noted that despite short-term uncertainties, the market is poised for a potential "short squeeze." A series of "favorable macroeconomic news" could disrupt the balance, triggering significant market volatility and potentially pushing Ethereum past $5,000 in the coming month. These potential catalysts include the Federal Reserve's decision on Wednesday regarding interest rates and the ongoing enthusiasm for risk assets driven by U.S. tech stocks and the artificial intelligence sector, where valuations have surged significantly.
