Today, August 8, 2025, Ethereum surpassed the $4000 mark for the first time since December 2024—signifying a strong bullish signal.
Its price jumped over 3.8% in the last 24 hours, contributing to gains of nearly 20% since the beginning of the year.
What is fueling the rise?
Regulatory winds play a significant role:
An executive order from President Trump now allows cryptocurrencies—including Ethereum—to be included in 401(k) retirement plans, opening the door to massive institutional inflows.
Supportive regulation for stablecoins and developments from the SEC under the 'Crypto Project' agenda are positive for Ethereum, which dominates decentralized finance and stablecoin systems.
Market sentiment is shifting:
Institutional attention is increasing amid Ethereum ETF inflows and corporate treasury accumulation.
Previous resistance levels ($4000) are fiercely contested—once surpassed, Ethereum may rise higher.

Scenario Potential Outcome
