ETH Retests 2018 Highs

The crypto market has been relieved of high tensions and possibly greater price dumps as Trump calls an end to the tariff war. WIth other nations showing either indifference or resilience when faced with the impossible and unnecessary tariffs, the USA was left with no choice but to end the tensions. When the tariff was first began, the US stock market saw trillions wiped out through liquidations.

In reverse, the end of the tariff war brought $4 trillion into the US stock market while the crypto market pumped up to a total of $2.5 trillion in total market cap. This immediate and incredible recovery brought analysts back to bullish sentiment and brought the price of BTC from lower $70,000 prices to a much stronger $86,000 price mark. Now, as BTC prepares to reclaim $90,000 first and then its 6-gigit prices, analysts hope to see the same recovery take over for the altcoin market as well.

As we can see from the post above, Ethereum (ETH) seems to be retesting its 2018 highs. The analyst goes on to encourage those daring and determined enough to accumulate more ETH at these lower price levels. In detail, ETH is set to reclaim its old ATH prices and then go on to set a string of new ATHs much like BTC did in Q4 2024. This inevitable pump, as many analysts like to see it, is expected to usher in the peak altseason state.

He begins by stating that he first expected to sell BTC when it was meant to peak in 2025 at $200,000.

As we can see from the detailed post above, the analyst believes that BTC is bullish for the long-term and is expected liquidity to return to the market much stronger. Thus, he believes that BTC could hit a cycle top target of $300,000 this bull cycle and that this peak is likely to arrive mid-2026.
