Ethereum Price Is Surging, Will It Hit $6,000?

All eyes are currently on the world’s largest altcoin Ethereum (ETH) as it strongly defends the crucial support levels of $2,400. The Ethereum price reversed its trajectory shooting past $2,500 over the weekend with analysts stating that ETH has taken the perfect support and is gearing up for a nearly 2.5x rally to $6,000 ahead.

Ethereum Price Rally to $6,000 Ahead?

Crypto analyst Ali Martinez identified an attractive risk-to-reward setup for Ethereum (ETH) while suggesting a promising long position for the altcoin. Martinez disclosed his trade approach, noting that he’s placed a stop-loss below $1,880 while setting an ambitious price target of $6,000. Martinez believes that the current Ethereum price structure provides a compelling opportunity for investors looking to capitalize on the altcoin’s potential upward momentum in the near term.

However, for the ETH price to confirm a rally to $6,000, it first needs to clear the crucial resistance of $2,680. Breaking past this sloping trendline can give bulls the upper hand.

While Ethereum has been underperforming Bitcoin for a very long period of time, institutions continue to remain bullish on the altcoin. Last week, Swiss banking giant UBS rolled out its first Ethereum-based tokenized investment fund unit in Singapore.

At one end, the Bitcoin dominance has climbed to 60.5% while the Ethereum dominance has slipped to 13%, down from 18% earlier this year.

It will be interesting to see how further will the Ethereum price continue to lag behind Bitcoin, or reverse the trajectory and begin the altseason soon. Last week, legendary trader Peter Brandt predicted the ETH price crash to $1,550 levels.

Is Ethereum the Next Amazon?

A research analyst at crypto asset manager 21Shares believes that Ethereum’s potential remains largely untapped while comparing the blockchain to the Amazon of the early 1990s. Leena ElDeeb, Research Analyst at 21Shares, said: Ethereum is “complex, akin to Amazon in the 1990s — promising vast potential but less straightforward in its use cases”.

Federico Brokate, vice president and head of the US business unit at 21Shares, stated that Amazon started just as a small online bookstore. However, it later transitioned into becoming a global e-commerce conglomerate and a cloud computing giant.

Similarly, Ethereum had a humble beginning in 2015 as a blockchain network supporting smart contracts. However, it now supports decentralized finance (DeFi) applications worth more than $140 billion. Brokate said:

“Just as Amazon evolved beyond books to redefine entire industries, Ethereum may also surprise us with revolutionary use cases that we can’t fully envision today.”

Although ETH’s market cap of $320 billion represents just 6.25% of Amazon’s $2 trillion valuation, Brokate highlights a significant advantage for Ethereum compared to Amazon in the 1990s. This includes the extensive pool of talent dedicated to enhancing the network’s utility. “Amazon has grown to employ over 1.5 million people worldwide — growth we may see paralleled in the Ethereum ecosystem,” he added.

Even though the Ethereum price has been testing investors’ patience currently, it could bounce back to new highs once it comes out of the bearish grip. ElDeeb said that the inflows into spot Ethereum ETFs will also continue to rise as the ETH price gains strong bullish momentum.
