Ethereum saw a slight rally after finding support at $2.1K. However, the price is likely to resume a downtrend. On the daily chart, ETH broke the lower boundary of the wedge at $2.8K and found support at $2.1K. On the 4-hour chart, it is facing strong resistance in the $2.6K-$2.8K range. If this resistance cannot be broken, the downtrend may continue. On-chain analysis also supports this scenario. 📉
Bitcoin price has been consolidating in a wide range since March and is slowly falling. On the daily chart, the price has fallen below the 200-day moving average and has recovered from $50K. It could now test the $56K level. If this level holds, a new bull run could begin. 📈
On the 4-hour chart, a rapid recovery from the $52K support level is observed. However, it is struggling to break the $61K resistance. If this resistance is broken, a move towards the $64K level is possible. Otherwise, the market could fall back to $52K.
According to on-chain analysis, Bitcoin exchange reserves have decreased significantly. This indicates that investors are accumulating BTC and there is a possibility of a supply shock. This could lead to a price increase. 🚀

The liquidity crisis in the crypto market is growing! 📉 According to Kaiko's research, the fragmentation of liquidity between exchanges leads to price differences. Binance.US, in particular, has been experiencing a liquidity shortage since the SEC case, which increases price slippage.
For example, Zaif's BTC-JPY pair experienced the highest slippage after the Bank of Japan's interest rate hike. This situation once again shows how critical liquidity is. 💡
Intensive transactions during the week and weekend uncertainty also deepen the liquidity crisis. However, crypto platforms are trying to overcome these challenges with infrastructure investments.

According to CryptoQuant analyst Shayan, Ether (ETH) could soon see a rally! 📈 ETH futures market metrics suggest that price rallies could follow a major liquidation event.
ETH lost 34% of its value earlier this month, falling to $2,197. However, it recovered to $2,500 thanks to buying pressure in the $2,100 region. It is currently trading at $2,623.
The cooling down in the futures market and increasing spot buying pressure could help ETH regain traction and stabilize the market. Shayan says that this could trigger a new bull wave in the long term.
ETH’s strong buying interest at the $2,100 support level reflects confidence in its long-term potential. However, the $2,800 resistance level could hinder the upside movement and pose a risk of a pullback to $2,000. 🚀

Bitcoin found strong buyers at $50K support and rebounded! 🚀 However, it approached the 200-day moving average resistance zone at $61K. The direction of the price at this critical point is uncertain. If rejected, a pullback to $50K is possible. However, if there is a sudden breakout, the rise could continue. The market should be watched carefully! 📊
Ethereum, after a 37% drop, encountered strong buying activity at the $2.1K support area, which resulted in a rally. 📈 However, the current price action suggests that ETH could complete a pullback towards the $2.8K level, indicating that the downtrend may continue.
Technical analysis indicates that the $2.8K level is a significant resistance and the price could bounce back from this area. If this happens, Ethereum’s next target could be the $2K support level.
Data in the futures market suggests that the price could recover after the large liquidations. If demand returns, Ethereum could experience a new wave of upside in the long term. 🚀
