$ETH Where price is now โข Trading around $2,017โ$2,026 on major spot venues today, up โผ0.08% intraday after bouncing between $1,976 low and $2,046 high. Market cap โผ$240B. โข Context:
$ETH is down โผ12% from its local peak in mid-May and has been ping-ponging around the psychological $2,100 level for a week. Technical levels everyone is watching โข Support stack: $2,100โ$2,108 held on the last dip, then $2,080 is the line-in-the-sand. Below that, analysts flag $2,044 as a liquidation trigger, with $2,000 as the big round-number defense. Lose $2,000 and the chart opens toward $1,900 then $1,800. โข Resistance stack: First hurdle $2,135โ$2,150 (hourly EMAs + Bollinger top). Clear that and $2,180 (hourly 200 EMA) comes next. The real test is $2,211 (50-day EMA) โ
$ETH hasn't closed a daily candle above it in three weeks โ followed by the daily 20/50 EMA cluster $2,208โ$2,245, then $2,225โ$2,326 where the 20-, 50-, and 100-day EMAs bunch together. Flows and on-chain โข ETFs: US spot ETH ETFs saw net outflows >$255M over the past week, which is why the bounce to $2,140โ$2,150 faded. That's the "week-long ETF drain" narrative. โข Leverage: โผ$48M liquidated in 24h, with longs leading. Over $1.7B in leveraged longs sit below $2,000, which is why traders call that level fragile. โข Supply: MVRV has slipped into the 0.8โ1.0 zone, historically an accumulation range. About 65% of supply is now locked in staking, DeFi, or burned, so spot float is tightening even as price chops. Bigger-picture 2026 view

โข Conservative banks (Citi) see โผ$3,175 by year-end 2026. โข Bull cases (Standard Chartered) stretch to $7,500, citing staking ETFs, the Glamsterdam upgrade, and Layer-2 growth. The main risks they cite are macro uncertainty and L2 fee leakage eating L1 revenue.
