Ethereum Hits 6-Month High Near $3,700 as ETFs Drive Momentum
2024-11-28

Ethereum is finally moving independently from its big brother, Bitcoin, which has corrected over the past week.
As a result, ETH prices hit $3,682 during early trading in Asia on Thursday, its highest level since June 10. This culminated in an 18% gain over the past week. Conversely, Bitcoin has declined by 2% over the past seven days.
Ethereum had retreated to $3,600 at the time of writing, but it appears to have awakened after months of slumber.

ETH Retuns to Summer Highs
Crypto analyst Rekt Capital commented that Bitcoin’s range between $91,000 and $100,000 “may very well be a recipe for Ethereum to take the lead and enable money flow into smaller Altcoins.”
In a separate post, he said that ETH would need a weekly close above $3,650 for it to break out from previous highs in June.
He added that this would enable ETH totarget resistanceat $4,000 before adding, “Historically, such weekly closes inside the red resistance have preceded strong upsides,” which could see the asset reach $4,500.

Engineer and analyst ‘Wolf’ echoed the sentiment to his 107,000 X followers on Nov. 28. “No matter how you look at the$ETH chart, it’s incredibly bullish,” he said before adding:
“One way to view it is as a 3-year cup and handle, with major resistance at $4k. Once that’s cleared, a measured move places it north of $15k.”
Meanwhile, investor and entrepreneur Ted Pillows said ETH was forming an inverse head and shoulder pattern and showing strength despite BTC’s decline before predicting:
“I personally think ETH will outperform BTC over the next 4-6 months, and I’m betting heavily on it. $10,000+ ETH is programmed this cycle.”
