Golden Finance reported that while the cryptocurrency market is closely watching the price trend of Ethereum (ETH), well-known trader Pentoshi expressed his optimistic outlook on the ETH market on social media. He tweeted, “This is a very good closing for ETH. I think it’s the ‘first day’ of this breakout rally.” We should witness the subsequent rise of ETH. It seems that numerous favorable catalysts from traditional finance (TradFi) and the SEC are generating momentum, along with the support of ETFs.
Recently, the ETH market has indeed shown many positive signals. From a technical perspective, the closing price of ETH performed well, providing some support for Pentoshi’s view. A good closing price often indicates a strong bullish force in the market, suggesting a high demand for ETH in the short term. Buyers are willing to buy and hold at a higher price, driving the price up gradually.
In the traditional financial sector, an increasing number of institutions have begun to pay attention to and even get involved in investments related to Ethereum. The entry of large financial institutions not only brought in a large amount of funds but also enhanced the recognition of ETH in the mainstream financial market. With their professional investment strategies and extensive market influence, they have attracted more investors’ attention to ETH, injecting strong impetus into its price increase. For instance, some traditional financial institutions have set up investment products related to Ethereum, enabling ordinary investors to participate in ETH investment more conveniently and further expanding market demand.
The change in the attitude of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has also become a major positive factor for the ETH market. The gradual clarification of the SEC’s regulatory policies on the cryptocurrency market, especially the more reasonable regulation of Ethereum-related products and businesses, has reduced market uncertainty. Previously, the SEC’s ambiguous attitude towards the regulation of the cryptocurrency market had deterred many investors and institutions. Now, with the improvement of the regulatory environment, the confidence of market participants has greatly increased.
The launch of spot ETFs has brought new vitality to the ETH market. As a convenient investment tool, ETF has built a bridge between the traditional financial market and the cryptocurrency market. By purchasing ETF shares, investors can indirectly invest in ETH, avoiding the complex operations and security risks associated with directly holding cryptocurrencies. Since the launch of the ETH spot ETF, there has been a continuous net inflow of funds. According to relevant data, the inflow of funds into ETH spot ETFs has been continuously rising over the past period of time, indicating that investors recognize the long-term investment value of ETH. These inflows of funds have provided sufficient liquidity for the ETH market, directly driving up the price of ETH.
Apart from the factors mentioned by Pentoshi, the development of the Ethereum ecosystem itself should not be ignored either. As a pioneering platform for smart contracts, Ethereum’s ecosystem is constantly expanding and its application scenarios are becoming increasingly diverse. In the field of decentralized finance (DeFi), numerous DeFi protocols based on Ethereum continue to innovate, attracting a large number of users and funds. For instance, various DeFi applications such as lending, trading, and insurance are booming on the Ethereum network, and the total locked value (TVL) of DeFi protocols is constantly setting new records. The NFT (Non-fungible Token) market has also achieved great success relying on the Ethereum ecosystem. The application of various NFT projects in fields such as art, games, and collectibles has made Ethereum the main platform for NFT transactions, further increasing the demand for ETH and its market value.
With the gradual advancement of the upgrade of Ethereum 2.0, the performance and scalability of the network have been significantly improved. The introduction of sharding technology enables Ethereum to handle more transactions, reduce transaction fees and increase transaction speed. This not only improves the user experience but also attracts more developers and projects to join the Ethereum ecosystem, laying a solid foundation for its long-term development.
However, the cryptocurrency market has always been fraught with uncertainties and risks. Although there are many favorable factors in the current ETH market, it may still face some potential challenges. For instance, minor changes in regulatory policies, sudden shifts in market sentiment, technical security vulnerabilities, etc., may all have an impact on the price trend of ETH. While referring to the viewpoints of professionals such as Pentoshi, investors need to remain rational, fully assess their own risk tolerance, and make investment decisions with caution. Whether the price of ETH will continue to rise as Pentoshi predicted in the future will be closely watched by the market.
