Analyst Points to Critical Price Levels
Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe took to Twitter to highlight crucial near-term price levels for Ethereum in light of the recent market surge. The analyst suggested that Ethereum breaching the key level of $1825 is significant. If Ethereum maintains its position above this level, it could continue its upward trend. Furthermore, assuming the market’s bullish trend persists, Ethereum, having crossed critical price levels, may continue to increase in value. The next resistance level, according to the analyst, is at the $2000 mark.
