Ethereum News Today: Ethereum Consolidates Below $4100 After 70% Rally as ETFs Draw $18.4B Inflows

Ethereum’s price action has drawn renewed attention as the cryptocurrency consolidates below the $4,100 psychological level following a 70% rally since early 2025. Institutional investors have acquired 2.83 million ETH since mid-May, outpacing new issuance by a factor of 32, while Ethereum-focused ETFs have seen 12 consecutive days of inflows, totaling $296.5 million on a recent trading day alone. The Ethereum ETF market now exceeds $18.4 billion, reflecting sustained institutional and retail demand [1]. Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan noted the imbalance between ETH demand and supply, emphasizing institutional appetite as a stabilizing force amid consolidation [2].

Technical indicators highlight Ethereum’s positioning within a long-term rising channel, with price currently trading near $3,644 in a defined range between $3,530 and $3,677. The $4,100 resistance level remains a critical threshold; a breakout could trigger accelerated buying, given the asset’s capacity to absorb short-term corrections while maintaining its bullish trajectory. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has retreated from overbought levels to neutral territory, signaling a pause in momentum ahead of the next phase of price discovery [3].

On-chain activity reinforces Ethereum’s supply-demand dynamics. With a circulating supply of 120.71 million ETH and no fixed maximum cap, the network’s utility-driven appeal is bolstered by ongoing upgrades and DeFi adoption. Daily trading volume near $45.66 billion and a market capitalization of $438.71 billion underscore active participation. Institutions’ accumulation of ETH—exceeding short-term supply constraints—has created a floor for the asset, while ETF inflows further validate its strategic role in institutional portfolios [4].

Analysts remain cautious about near-term volatility but highlight Ethereum’s potential for a significant move. Crypto Patel noted that current support levels could precipitate a price surge, provided institutional demand persists [5]. Meanwhile, forecasts from nequi.org suggest Ethereum could reach $10,000 by year-end, though this projection reflects speculative optimism rather than immediate technical signals [6].

Market participants are advised to monitor the $4,100 resistance level closely. A sustained breakout would likely attract further institutional participation and retail buying, reinforcing Ethereum’s position as a leading crypto asset. Conversely, a failure to hold above critical support zones may test the $3,500 range, where recent buying pressure has also been observed.
