Analyst Notes: Cryptocurrency analyst, Michael Van de Poppe, suggests that Ethereum’s key level of support is at $2,150  "and is ready to continue the upwards path. Likely, we’ve been bottomed on the $ETH / $BTC pair and have peaked on the Bitcoin dominance."

As per crypto analyst Crypto Tony "If you are looking for a long, remember that we need to reclaim $44,300."

Another pseudonymous analyst Crypto Kaleo said, " Ethereum looks primed to make a major move after the recent HTF double bottom it made if it can reclaim the HTF support level it lost in early October. One of the most forgotten narratives of the past year has been the deflationary mechanics of the merge."

The analyst added," While we’ve been complaining about high gas prices and ETH’s lack of usability, 339K ETH (currently valued at $800M) have been burned from the total supply. While this number may seem insignificant relative to ETH’s $280B mcap, I expect it to rapidly accelerate as the bull market continues to pick up steam."

Meanwhile, CryptoCon foresees $130K for Bitcoin, citing technical indicators.  "The LMACD adds another layer of confirmation with a cross of the Descending Cycle Mid-Top Trend. For investors that haven’t taken advantage of Green Year Accumulation prices, this gives them another chance."

According to the Halving Cycles Theory, CryptoCon expects a true cycle top +/- 21 days from Nov 28th, 2025. "My expected price is around 130k according to several key price experiments, but I will act at whatever price data tells me to."
