He expects major gains between 2027 and 2028 once the current bearish phase ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To support the prediction, he compared Ethereum\u2019s potential recovery to Bitcoin\u2019s historic rise from $2,000 to $20,000 in 2017, using that 12 month fractal pattern as a possible roadmap for ETH after the market bottoms out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, some analysts believe Ethereum may still face another steep decline before any sustained rally begins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Market analyst \u201cChain Mind\u201d warned that ETH could fall back toward the $1,500 level if current support zones fail to hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the analyst, Ethereum is approaching a decisive moment where maintaining support could trigger a recovery, while losing it could result in a sharp selloff toward lower levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A breakdown would effectively reset the trend back to price levels last seen in October 2023 and April 2025, periods when Ether previously crashed to long term support around $1,500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is the crucial moment for ETH,\u201d the analyst emphasized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Analyst Alex Marzell also noted that Ethereum remains supported above $2,050 for now, but warned that a clear breakdown below that area could accelerate losses toward the $1,800 support zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Negative Sentiment Weighs on Ethereum<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bearish sentiment surrounding Ethereum has intensified recently following growing criticism of the network and departures from prominent community figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among them was David Hoffman, who reportedly exited his Ethereum holdings entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The negative market mood has continued to pressure prices, with ETH struggling to remain above the $2,100 level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ethereum dropped to an intraday low of $2,060 during Wednesday morning trading and has declined nearly 10% over the past two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The asset has spent the last four months moving within a consolidation range, but current price action suggests it may be drifting toward the lower end of the channel and potentially below the key psychological support level at $2,000.#crypto#cryptonews<a href=\"https:\/\/coinsignals.net\">https:\/\/coinsignals.net<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic\">https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Analysts remain optimistic about Ethereum\u2019s long term outlook, although they believe the market could experience further downside before a major rally begins.
