Technically, analysts note ETH has rallied approximately 250% from cycle lows; some, like Ted Pillows, suggest a brief pullback could set the stage for a move towards $4,500–$5,000, with $10,000 possible later if liquidity and macro tailwinds ￰6￱ the near term, sustaining closes above $4,200–$4,250 would keep bulls in control; failure to do so risks a decline towards the $3,800–$3,600 support ￰7￱ Integrations Strengthen the Fundamental Case Beyond flows and treasuries, real-world rails are ￰8￱ has tested Ethereum’s Linea Layer-2 with BNP Paribas and BNY Mellon for on-chain settlement messaging, while a broader SWIFT–Consensys project explores a blockchain-based ledger for 24/7 cross-border ￰9￱ even a small part of SWIFT volume moves on-chain, it could become a steady demand driver for block space and ETH ￰10￱ improving regulatory clarity and ETF adoption, these integrations strengthen Ethereum’s position as a neutral financial infrastructure for institutions, supporting the AI/data economy narrative highlighted by corporate ￰11￱ Line Record ETF inflows, decreasing exchange supply, and rising TradFi pilots support a breakout above $ 4,000.
