Ethereum surged 5% this week to $2,806.63, recovering from December’s devastating drop that saw the second-largest cryptocurrency shed 27.6% in a month. The move higher comes as major banks increasingly turn to Ethereum for stablecoin and settlement infrastructure, providing fundamental support just as price tested critical technical floors. The main question for traders is: can this institutional-driven bounce transform into a sustainable trend reversal after ETH lost 35% over three months?

Ethereum’s price action tells a story of exhaustion meeting institutional support. The second-largest cryptocurrency shed $1,106 from December’s $3,913 peak to current levels around $2,808 – a devastating 27.5% monthly decline that ranks among the steepest corrections this year. Despite the technical damage, digital asset funds reported over $1 billion in weekly inflows with Ethereum capturing a significant portion alongside Bitcoin, while Fidelity’s blockchain fund exploded past $250 million using ETH for settlements. The main question for traders is: does institutional accumulation trump technical weakness, or will the charts dictate another leg lower before buyers truly emerge?

Ethereum has suffered a devastating monthly plunge of 28.78%, tumbling from December’s high of $3,916 to current levels at $2,741.22. The collapse accelerated after Vitalik Buterin’s warnings about quantum computing threats to Ethereum’s cryptography hit the wires, triggering stop-loss cascades through multiple support zones that had held since November. The main question for traders is: has ETH found a floor after this brutal washout, or does the technical damage signal more pain ahead?

Ethereum has suffered a devastating drop of 27% over the past month, sliding from December’s high of $3,916 to current levels around $2,810. The collapse erases nearly three months of gains and leaves ETH down 24.2% year-over-year, even as institutional adoption accelerates with Amundi launching Europe’s first tokenized fund share on the platform. The main question for traders is: does the awakening of a decade-dormant ICO whale who just staked $120 million signal a bottom, or merely provide exit liquidity for further declines?

Ethereum surged 26% this week, hitting $2,844 after bottom hunters emerged. Strategic buyers pushed past resistance as ETH reclaimed critical EMAs, with institutional confidence evident in $50M USDT borrowing. ADX at 42.5 signals genuine trend strength from oversold bounce. Traders await if momentum can hold above reclaimed levels or if $3,000 resistance will be defended.
