‘Ethereum’s Price Should Have Dropped Already’ – Analyst Explains The On-Chain Signal Behind The Warning
Ethereum has surged more than 25% since late March, pushing back toward levels that have defined the upper boundary of its recent recovery range and testing resistance that has capped every previous attempt higher. The move has been convincing enough to shift sentiment — but a CryptoQuant analyst has just flagged a divergence in the on-chain data that complicates the bullish reading and raises a question the price chart cannot answer on its own. This positioning matters. Historically, sustained bullish expansions occur when Ethereum reclaims and holds above these higher time frame averages. Until that happens, rallies tend to behave as relief moves within a broader consolidation or distribution range.Related Reading
The $2,200–$2,300 zone is now acting as a pivot. It previously served as support during the 2024 structure and is currently being retested from below. The market’s ability to hold this level will determine whether the recent move evolves into a trend reversal or fades into another lower high.
Volume does not yet confirm a strong conviction. While the bounce from the lows was sharp, follow-through buying has been relatively muted compared to prior impulsive phases, suggesting cautious participation.
A break above $2,600 would shift the structure decisively and open the path toward $3,000. Failure to hold $2,200 would expose Ethereum to renewed downside, with $1,900 acting as the next major support zone.
