Ethereum (ETH) is currently trading at $2,616, predicted to rise to $10,000 in the coming months based on fundamentals and fractal analysis.

2023-2024 Price Model Suggests ETH Price Increase

The first reason why ETH has a $10,000 target is due to the similarity to the previous price pattern from January 2023 to March 2024, according to Julien Bittel, head of macro research at Global Macro Investor.

The 2023-2024 price pattern shows that ETH price accumulated between $1,500 and $2,000 before spiking to $3,500. Currently, ETH price is closely following this pattern, reflecting the previous accumulation phase.

Ethereum could see a bullish breakout if the price continues to move in the same direction and momentum as seen from January 2023 to March 2024. Bittel sees $10,000 as a possible year-end target for investors bullish on Ether.

Fib Analysis Shows $10k Target for ETH

The second important factor is another fractal analysis, which includes a long-term Fibonacci retracement chart, exponential moving averages (EMAs), and relative strength index (RSI) on Ethereum's weekly chart.

ETH price history shows similarities between the 2017–2018 and 2020–2021 bull runs, with sharp corrections following parabolic growth periods.

In the current scenario, if ETH follows the same trajectory, a bounce from the 2022 low of $1,080 would bring the 1.618 Fibonacci extension to $6,978 and the 2.618 extension to $10,623.

Ethereum’s weekly chart shows it is trying to reclaim the 50-week EMA, currently around $2,749, while the 200-week EMA at $2,104 has marked the bottom of major corrections. Meanwhile, the RSI is at a neutral 46, far from overbought levels, suggesting room for further gains if the momentum changes.

If Ether reclaims key levels and momentum strengthens, it could hit targets like $6,978 and possibly $10,623, according to historical fractal patterns and technical indicators.

M2 Money Supply Growth Supports ETH

The third reason for Ethereum's ability to hit $10,000 is broader macro trends, particularly the growth of global M2 money supply.

As shown in the second chart, Bitcoin price often moves in line with changes in M2 money supply from major central banks such as the US Federal Reserve (Fed), European Central Bank (ECB), and Bank of Japan (BoJ).

From 2011 to 2020, Bitcoin saw huge price increases during periods of strong M2 expansion, benefiting from inflation fears and increased liquidity. While 2022 saw a contraction in M2 growth, 2024 shows early signs of a reversal as central banks ease monetary policy in response to economic uncertainty.

Since Bitcoin and Ethereum are positively correlated, a fresh Bitcoin rally amid expanding global liquidity could also lift Ethereum prices, making the $10,000 target realistic.
