Ethereum Stands Its Ground Amid Market Turmoil and Political Uncertainty
Despite mounting pressure from macroeconomic turbulence and investor anxiety, Ethereum is holding a critical level. Recent policy changes by former U.S. President Donald Trump, including aggressive new tariffs, have fueled uncertainty across global markets — spilling into crypto. The resulting fear has weakened both traditional and digital assets.
Ethereum has been particularly impacted. After falling below $2,500 in late February, ETH has struggled to regain bullish momentum. Multiple failed support attempts have left the asset trading at multi-month lows, with the current price slipping below $1,800.
According to IntoTheBlock, Ethereum has shed nearly 50% of its value this quarter, while Bitcoin has only dropped around 15%. This widening gap has raised concerns among investors who had expected ETH to lead the 2025 bull run, driven by network innovation and real-world adoption.
Currently, Ethereum remains below the 200 MA and EMA on the 4-hour chart, both hovering near the $2,000 mark. This area, once strong support, has now turned into stiff resistance. For any chance of recovery, bulls must reclaim $2,000, and ideally $2,200, to reverse the bearish trend.
If ETH fails to hold $1,800, the last significant support zone, a drop toward $1,750 or even $1,550 could follow — levels not seen since early 2023. The market remains cautious, with sellers maintaining the upper hand unless buyers can reclaim key territory.
