A crypto analyst has made a daring prediction for Ethereum (ETH), setting the timeline for when the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency would embark on a significant rally to new all-time highs above $10,000.  Here’s When Ethereum Will Reach $10,000 A crypto analyst identified as ‘Yoddha,’ on X (formerly Twitter) has announced the timeline for Ethereum’s ascent above $10,000. According to Yoddha, Ethereum is expected to rally massively after a period of accumulation and decline, continuously rising above $10,000 by the end of the year.  Related Reading: Why Did The Bitcoin Price Rise Above $66,000 Today? The analyst’s ambitious predictions are based on historical trends exhibited by Ethereum from 2016 to 2024. He shared a chart depicting Ethereum’s price action over these years, highlighting periods of accumulation, interim peaks and volatility.  Yoddha disclosed that from 2019 to 2021, Ethereum witnessed a period of accumulation marked by multiple price fluctuations, including long declines and short rallies. Following this, Ethereum surged significantly, reaching a peak of $4,867 towards the end of 2021. This price range aligns with the cryptocurrency’s all-time high of $4,878, achieved during the previous bull market cycle in 2021.  Based on these historical trends, Yoddha identified a similar accumulation phase in Ethereum’s price movements during this current market cycle. The analyst noted that from 2022 to early 2024, Ethereum experienced an accumulation and slightly bearish phase.  Prior to reaching a record high of $4,088 on March 12, 2024, Ethereum had experienced a bearish trend in 2022 and 2023. The cryptocurrency also faced declines on several occasions in 2024, especially around April and May.  Yoddha has indicated that Ethereum has successfully concluded this accumulation and bearish period and is on track to witness a massive rally towards $15,346, extending into the end of 2024.  Analyst Says ETH Could Start Altcoins Season In another X post, Yoddha indicated that Ethereum could start the upcoming altcoins season. The crypto analyst has consistently emphasized the impending launch of the highly anticipated altcoins season in 2024.  He revealed that altcoins will begin to gain more attraction once the hype surrounding meme coins diminishes. Additionally, Yoddha revealed that 2024 could issue the biggest altcoins season, encompassing healthy pullbacks and new all-time highs. Related Reading: End Of The Road For BNB After 200% Surge? Mounting Resistance Threatens Rally Presently, the price of Ethereum is trading at $3,024, reflecting a 1.58% decline over the past month, according to CoinMarketCap. A surge above $10,000 will require the cryptocurrency to jump by more than $7,000, fueled by a notable uptick in investor demand and interest in the cryptocurrency as well as the potential introduction of an Ethereum Spot ETF in 2024.  Crypto analyst, Ali Martinez has revealed that currently, Ethereum’s TD Sequential is presenting a “buy signal” on ETH’s daily price chart. He predicts that Ethereum could witness a rebound of one to four candlesticks from its recent price drop. Chart from Tradingview.com

Even after the upswing mid-this week, Bitcoin prices remain wavy, considering price action in lower time frames. The coin is retesting $66,000 at spot rates, but traders expect the breakout to have been confirmed, pushing BTC prices toward $70,000. Since the surge to all-time highs in March, the coin has been on a steady downtrend, as shown in the formation on the daily chart. BTC Liquidity Is High Despite Accumulation: Analyst Therefore, as doubt creeps in, Willy Woo, a Bitcoin on-chain analyst, is calming down market participants, saying the coin is preparing for sharp gains in the days ahead. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Predicts XRP Price Explosion To Over $18 Though prices are flat-lining in the daily chart, what’s important to note, Woo says, is the level of liquidity. Sharing a chart on X, Woo emphasized Bitcoin’s position within its liquidity cycle. The Bitcoin liquidity cycle is simply a chart showing the boom and bust periods of the world’s most valuable coin. Every cycle in history is highly influenced by the availability and flow of capital in and out of the asset. The analyst is upbeat, arguing that though prices are down from all-time highs and appear stuck in a consolidation, the coin is still in a “warm-up” phase. Woo adds that the current consolidation period means the long-term risk is low in light of the relatively high liquidity.  Comparing the current state of affairs to past price action, the analyst predicts that Bitcoin prices will likely surge. When “the floodgates open” and new capital enters the market, prices will shoot higher, but so will risk. Bitcoin Uptrend Just Getting Started? Ki Young Ju, the founder of CryptoQuant, a crypto analytics platform, has supported Woo’s position. To X, Ju said Bitcoin is in the middle of a bull cycle.  To explain this view, the founder noted that Bitcoin’s capitalization has been growing faster than the realized cap. The realized cap is a metric that aims to gauge the total value of all coins in circulation based on the price at which they were last moved. This trend has persisted for roughly two years historically. If this pattern holds, the bull cycle could end by April 2025. Related Reading: Did A Dogecoin Whale Just Sink The DOGE Ship?
