🚀 Ethereum Breaks $4,000. What Is Driving This Explosion?

💥💥💥

📈 Highlights of the Price Movement

• Key dates: August 8 and 9, 2025

• Significant rise: from $3,914 to $4,200 (+6.57% in 24h)

• Explosive volume: 646,459 ETH traded in the first wave and 714,461 ETH in the second, more than three times the daily average

• Current support: $4,155–$4,160

💡 Factors That Fueled the Rise

• Short liquidations: $207 million in short positions eliminated, generating buying pressure

• On-chain wealth effect: appreciation attracted both whales and small investors

• Positive sentiment: use of terms “buy” and “positive” doubled compared to “sell” and “negative” (Santiment data)

🔮 Analyst Projections

• Miles Deutscher: predicts market rotation — ETH leads, then BTC (target $120k–$140k), and finally, smaller altcoins

• Michaël van de Poppe: calls the rise “insane movement” and warns of buying risks at the top, but sees potential for new records

⚠️ Attention: Investor overconfidence may lead to temporary pauses in the upward trend.
