Ethereum's price could be on the verge of a significant upswing, but analysts suggest a weekly close above $2,800 is crucial to confirm the move.
Crypto analyst Matthew Hyland believes such a close could push Ethereum (ETH) toward the $3,500 range, which would also benefit other cryptocurrencies. Currently, ETH is trading near $2,758, after hovering around $2,600 for the past week.

Despite recent gains, Ethereum’s low network activity and transaction fees remain a concern, according to Real Vision’s Jamie Coutts. He argues that while conditions for a rally are present, a resurgence in network usage is needed for sustained growth.
In contrast, Khelp Financial’s Boomer Saraga believes Ethereum’s fundamentals are strong, with the network nearing peak performance, and expects the price to catch up soon.
Meanwhile, veteran trader Peter Brandt highlights two possible paths for Ethereum: a rise above $2,960, offering a solid exit for long positions, or a further decline to around $1,650 if the current downtrend continues.
