 Ether set for $3.2K breakout as ETH ETF inflows turn positive 
2024-11-08

Analysts are eying an Ether rally above $3,200, driven by the growing risk appetite after Donald Trump’s victory in the United States presidential election.
On Nov. 6, Trump was declared the winner of the presidential election, securing his second term as the 47th president of the US.
Inflows into spot Ether ETHUSD exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have turned positive after the US election results, with the ETFs seeing $52.3 million in net positive inflows on Nov. 6 and $79.7 million on Nov. 7, Farside Investors data shows.
The ETF inflows, along with a growing investor appetite boosted by a Republican victory, could help Ether’s price reach $3,200 in the short term, according to Bitfinex analysts.
The analysts told Cointelegraph:

Bitcoin’s BTCUSD dominance stood at 60.4% as of 8:10 am UTC on Nov. 8, suggesting Ether may be preparing for an imminent breakout, based on the analysis.
Increasingly, more analysts are bullish on the crypto market’s post-election trajectory thanks to Trump’s upcoming presidential term. Notably, Bitget Research’s chief analyst, Ryan Lee, expects Bitcoin to breach $100,000 before the end of 2024.

The Ether price is already becoming more volatile due to increased spot market buying after the elections.

Showcasing the growing investor conviction, Bitcoin’s price reached a new all-time high above $76,400 on Nov. 6, shortly after Trump was elected president.

A Trump administration will likely embrace more crypto industry innovation, including the debut of the first staked Ether ETF, according to Edward Wilson, an analyst at Nansen.
The analyst told Cointelegraph:
More Ether-based ETFs could help Ether’s price rise above its previous all-time high of $4,800, recorded on Nov. 16, 2021, nearly three years ago.
For Bitcoin, ETF inflows accounted for about 75% of new investment in the world’s first cryptocurrency when its price rose above $50,000 in February 2024, a month after spot BTC ETFs debuted for trading in the US.
