Analysts Weigh Whale Purchases Against Correction Risks

Ether's multi-week climb toward the $4,000 level has faced resistance, with the token falling more than 3% to around $3,696.

The latest ETH pullback follows two strong weeks of gains and comes amid growing discussion among analysts about whether the rally can continue without a broader correction. Technical indicators are beginning to flash red. One X-based crypto analytics account, Front Runners, said ETH has now outperformed Bitcoin for 14 consecutive days, calling the trend “unsustainable…
