ETH to $2,900? Ethereum Price Chart Signals Key Structural Shift

Ethereum, the second largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, might be on the verge of a structural shift that might eye $2,900 if validated.

According to Ali, Ethereum has officially cleared the X-axis of its ascending triangle, breaking through the critical $2,385 resistance level. This opens the path to $2,900, the analyst added.

Ali indicated that this price move represents a significant structural shift. The analyst indicated that Ethereum flipping the $2,385 into a support floor neutralizes recent sell signals and might suggest a major trend continuation.

With the overhead supply cleared, Ali stated that the technical objective for this formation is now $2,900. As long as Ethereum holds above the breakout zone at $2,385, the advantage will continue to tilt toward bulls.

Ethereum short-term price action

Ethereum rose to a high of $2,466 on April 17, extending its recovery from a March 29 low of $1,937. ETH’s price faced resistance at this level as sellers sought to halt the recovery. Bulls continued to press in and did not allow ETH’s price to dip below $2,300.

If ETH’s price continues to hold above the highlighted $2,385 level, the recovery may extend to $2,900, then to $3,050. Such a move suggests that Ethereum may have bottomed out at $1,742.

This bullish view will be invalidated in the near term if the price turns down sharply and breaks $2,300. That would suggest the recent rise might have been a bull trap. ETH could then decline to the $1,916 level.

Ethereum fundamentals remain

Ethereum processed a record 200.4 million base-layer transactions in Q1, 2026, as it saw a multi-year U-shaped recovery in network activity.

Despite the surge in usage, Ethereum remains more than 50% below its August 2025 peak near $5,000, representing a divergence between fundamentals and price.

In other news, Bitmine now holds 4.87 million ETH worth $10.7 billion and is 81% of the way to its target of owning 5% of the entire ETH supply. Of this, Bitmine has staked 3.33 million ETH, or about 68%.
