“Hold here and altseason follows,” he stated on X. On the daily chart, Ethereum is nearing a golden cross, where the 50-day EMA crosses above the 200-day EMA. This setup is widely seen as a bullish signal.
Data from Glassnode confirms that whale accumulation is at its highest since 2017, with ETH inflows to wallets reaching a four-month high. At the same time, the number of Ether on exchanges has dropped to 16.31 million, down from 16.71 million a month ago.
Market Sentiment Builds Above $2,400 Support Zone
Ethereum has now remained within a range between $2,400 and $2,870 for over 39 days. Analysts consider $2,400 a key level, as it aligns with major technical factors like volume points and moving averages. Holding above this level favors the continuation of an upward trend.
