As of Friday, August 8, 2025, Ethereum briefly broke above $4,000 on major platforms like Coinbase—its first time doing so since December 2024.
Why now?
This breakout was powered by strong institutional inflows—notably through spot ETH ETFs like BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) which now manages over $11 billion in ETH.
Additionally, on-chain activity, large-scale Ethereum treasury accumulation, and bullish technical signals are fueling optimism.
The sentiment?
Across social platforms using #ETHBreaks4000, traders are buzzing about a potential breakout—many believe if ETH holds above $4,000, it could spark a rapid rally toward $5K–$6K.

Why $4,000 is such a milestone
Psychological & technical importance:
The $4K level has proven to be a stubborn resistance zone—Ethereum had previously made multiple attempts to clear it, making this break meaningful.
Historical context:
Ethereum’s all-time high sits at approximately $4,878, reached back in late 2021. Even during December 2024, $ETH hovered just under that territory. The latest move, while impressive, still leaves room toward the full breakout.#ETHBreaks4000
