#Altcoins Rally Ethereum Attracts Attention! ETH Price Hopes Rising!
Ethereum (ETH) at $4,269.46 has attracted attention with its accelerated rise over the last two trading days. On Friday, August 8th, Ethereum broke through a key resistance level, breaking above $4,000 for the first time since December 2024. This rise, accompanied by increased trading volume, continued with a peak of $4,200 on Saturday morning, August 9th. Ethereum was trading around $4,268 as of the news, marking a 6.57% increase in the last 24 hours.
The recent rally in Ethereum is driven by technical breakouts and shifts in investor positions. Data shows that approximately $207 million worth of short positions were liquidated in the last 24 hours, accelerating the rise in buying. Furthermore, due to the "on-chain wealth effect in the Ethereum ecosystem," both large and small investors are profiting, which could increase the shift towards riskier tokens.
The market is predicted to experience a three-stage rotation. In the first stage, a movement in altcoins is expected, led by Ethereum. Then, Bitcoin could move to $115,616.05, and BTC could target the $120,000-$140,000 levels. In the final stage, a return to Ethereum and smaller tokens is possible.
Between 7:00 AM on August 8th and 6:00 AM on August 9th, Ethereum rose approximately 6 percent, rising from $3,914.59 to $4,160.29. During this period, prices traded between $3,885.03 and $4,194.53. In particular, during the initial surge at 1:00 PM on August 8th, prices surpassed $4,000 with a volume of 646,459 ETH, almost triple the 24-hour average.
In the second surge at 5:00 AM on August 9th, prices reached $4,194.53. Volume, at 714,461 ETH, was again well above the daily average. In the final hour of the day, the move from $4,157.33 to $4,194.53 saw a momentary price fluctuation of $42.
Following short-term buying, profit-taking led to the price stabilizing just below the psychologically significant $4,200 level. However, it has since recovered to trade around $4,284 today.
