Ethereum price moves toward $2,000, but analysts say it’s just another ‘relief rally’

ETH price bounced off a major support level, and while $2,000 could be a short-term target, most analysts say it’s just a “relief rally.”

On May 30, the cryptocurrency market experienced a much-needed bounce that saw Bitcoin (BTC) climb above $30,900 and Ether (ETH) rally 5.84% to $1,930, but analysts warn that it could be too early to expect a reversal.

Here’s a look at what several analysts are saying about the outlook for Ether moving forward and the major support and resistance levels to keep an eye on.

A bounce off of major support

The May 30 bounce in Ether came as “no surprise” to market analyst and pseudonymous Twitter user Rekt Capital, who posted the following chart, stating that “It's more about how much #ETH will move from here.”

Rekt Capital said:

“Technically, #Ethereum could rally to as high as ~$2269 to flip it into new resistance. General gist is that whatever this rally turns into, it will likely be weaker than mid-2021.”

Possible recovery to $2,700

Insight into the possible price trajectories for Ether was offered by crypto trader Ace of Alts, who posted the following chart showing ETH “currently holding the range lows again for the 4th time.”

Ace of Alts said:

“IF we manage to hold this on the 3D I could see a bounce to the $2,700 region over summer. This area will most likely act as another LH [lower high] in the down trend. However, the R/R [risk/reward] is very good around this level.”

Looking for “one more leg down”

While the bounce in Ether price was a welcome sight to traders, Crypto Tony offered a word of caution, posting the following chart and warning to “never lose sight of the bigger picture.”

Crypto Tony said:

“Yes things are looking nice at the moment, but to me this is simply a relief rally. We have no broken market structure on the time frame and until proven otherwise I am still looking for one more leg down.”

Based on the chart provided, another leg down has the potential to drop the price of Ether into the $1,500 range.

The overall cryptocurrency market capitalization now stands at $1.271 trillion, and Bitcoin’s dominance rate is 45.9%.

How Social Platform Chingari is Using Web 3.0 to Transform the Traditional Way We Use Social Media

The world is changing. This isn’t news to anyone, but sometimes it is nice to realize that—contrary to news headlines—not all the change is bad.  In fact, the last decade has seen so much innovation and so many improvements to technology that even 2015 seems like a different world.  Internet speeds, connecting with anyone globally (for free), and our ability to reach large groups of people without a middleman is nothing short of revolutionary. When it comes to technology evolution, this often happens with different iterations.  Once a system is mature, there’s a better idea of what we would like to change and improve.  We go back to the drawing board, target our creative minds at the issues, and create a new version that has evolved to better meet our needs.  The Internet has followed this model since its inception, evolving through three distinct stages.  We are only at the cusp of the third stage, called Web 3.0, with technologies such as blockchain and ...

ENS DAO delegates offer perspective on DAO governance and decentralized identity

AlphaWallet CEO and Spruce co-founder talk about their roles as contributors to the Ethereum Name Service following the project's recent airdrop. Earlier this month, the Ethereum Name Service, or ENS, formed a decentralized autonomous organization, or DAO, for the ENS community.  Cointelegraph spoke to two ENS DAO delegates who applied for the opportunity to represent the community and stay involved in the decision making process: Victor Zhang, CEO of AlphaWallet, an open source Ethereum wallet, and Gregory Rocco, co-founder of Spruce, a decentralized ID and data toolkit for developers. Zhang spoke about his experience as an external contributor to ENS and an early supporter since 2018. Zhang initially sought to help ENS by offering Alpha Wallet as a user-friendly tool for  resolving .eth names and cryptocurrency wallet addresses. Essentially, if a user inputs an .eth name in the AlphaWallet, it will show the wallet address, and vice versa using reverse resolution. Alpha...

Meta's head of crypto to step down at end of year

In explaining his decision to leave Meta, David Marcus said that his entrepreneurial DNA had been nudging him “for too many mornings in a row to continue ignoring.” David Marcus, the head of Meta’s cryptocurrency and fintech unit Novi, will step down from his role by the end of 2021. Taking over from Marcus will be Stephane Kasriel, the former CEO of Upwork who has been at Meta, formerly known as Facebook, since August 2020. Marcus announced the decision via a Dec. 1 tweet , noting that he had made the “difficult decision” to leave the firm by the end of this year. The exec didn’t go into detail about what his next move would be, but hinted that it may be something “new and exciting” that he builds himself: “While there’s still so much to do right on the heels of launching Novi — and I remain as passionate as ever about the need for change in our payments and financial systems — my entrepreneurial DNA has been nudging me for too many mornings in a row to continue ignoring it.” Ma...
