Ethereum faces a brick wall resistance at this price

Ethereum (ETH), a leading player in the cryptocurrency market, is currently facing a formidable resistance level at $3,200.

This specific ETH price point has emerged as a significant barrier due in part to the substantial holdings of approximately 2.43 million addresses, which collectively possess 5.14 million ETH as detailed by crypto analyst Ali Martinez using IntoTheBlock data on X (formerly Twitter).

As of the latest market data on April 29, Ethereum is priced at $3,172.98, marking a decrease of 4.5% within the past day and a modest retreat of 0.9% over the last week.

Despite these fluctuations, Ethereum maintains a strong market capitalization of $15.2 billion. Notably, the ETH/BTC ratio has remained relatively steady since the launch of Bitcoin ETFs in January, an indication of Ethereum’s resilience in capturing investor interest even amidst significant Bitcoin inflows totaling $12 billion this year.

The perception of 2024 as a challenging year isn’t universally shared among market watchers. Cryptocurrency strategist Michaël van de Poppe recently noted a positive shift, pointing out that Ethereum has achieved its highest ratio against Bitcoin in the past two weeks, suggesting a burgeoning strength that could indicate the start of a market rotation favoring Ethereum.

Analyzing the ETH $3,200 resistance

The resistance at $3,200 isn’t merely a numerical threshold but a complex confluence of market sentiment, historical trading behaviors, and substantial asset accumulation. This level represents a convergence point where past buyers might look to break even or secure profits, potentially leading to increased selling pressure.

For Ethereum to surpass this resistance, it would require not just favorable market conditions but also a shift in investor sentiment, potentially spurred by broader market recoveries or significant positive developments within the Ethereum network itself, which won’t be boosted by the latest rumours that regulators are expected to deal major blow to U.S. crypto market by not approving an Ethereum ETF.
