Ethereum: Price Decline and Its Causes

Ethereum, one of the leading cryptocurrencies, has notably lost value over the past month. We delve into the factors affecting its current trajectory.

Current State of Ethereum

Ethereum has lost about 20% of its value after facing resistance at the $4,000 mark in December. This occurred during a general sell-off in Bitcoin and other altcoins. Contributing to the decline were outflows from Ethereum spot exchange-traded funds, with a net outflow of $159 million on Wednesday and $86 million the previous day. Despite this, Ethereum ETFs have attracted a net inflow of $2.5 billion since their approval in 2024. The balance of ETH on exchanges has also risen to 15.85 million, suggesting potential liquidation of assets by investors.

Impact of Macroeconomic Factors

From a macroeconomic perspective, ETH has been affected by rising U.S. bond yields amid a hawkish stance from the Federal Reserve. The 30-year bond yield reached 4.96%, its highest level since October 2023. Rising yields reflect expectations of continued hawkish policies due to persistent inflation concerns.

Ethereum Price Chart Analysis

The weekly chart shows that ETH encountered resistance at the $4,000 level. Despite the pullback, the cryptocurrency remains above the 50-week and 100-week moving averages, indicating some control by the bulls. An inverse head and shoulders pattern is forming, considered a bullish reversal signal. If ETH breaks the neckline at $4,085, the next targets are the all-time high of $4,865 and the psychological level of $5,000. However, a drop below $2,825 could invalidate this outlook.

Ethereum is experiencing a complex set of factors affecting both the price decline and potential future reversal. Understanding these factors can help investors make more informed decisions.
