CoinEx’s crypto savings push in the age of falling DeFi yields

Ethereum’s price weakness may be approaching a decisive turning point, 
according to a new technical analysis comparing the current ETH structure with 
previous market cycles. The pattern that formed before the 2017 parabolic run 
and again before the 2020 breakout is now reappearing in 2026, and the long- 
term chart is showing a structure that could be the start of a phase that 
pushes its price to as high as $8,000. A Cycle That Has Played Out Twice 
Before Ethereum has spent the past several months doing what most of the 
market has chosen to ignore: building. The leading altcoin has largely 
underperformed compared to Bitcoin, but the weekly chart is assembling the 
same structural sequence that preceded two of the biggest rallies in its price 
history. Related Reading: XRP Wave Count Remains Valid: Here Are The Levels To 
Watch Out For Technical analysis shows that ETH has followed a recognizable 
four-phase sequence in the previous two cycles: a prolonged downtrend, a 
compression phase and declining volatility, a breakout from the compression 
zone, and a vertical rally. In 2017, that cycle produced a gain of 
approximately 17,581%. The 2020 iteration, beginning from a similar 
compression structure, produced a rally of about 4,348% during the height of 
the 2021 bull run. The chart now presents a third instance of this structure. 
ETH bottomed around $1,800 in February 2026, a low that briefly broke below 
support before a reclaim brought price back above the structure. That sequence 
of a fake breakdown followed by a swift recovery and the formation of a higher 
low is precisely the kind of price behavior that preceded the two prior 
cycles. The current compression is tighter than those that came before it, 
with buyers defending support around $2,200 and sellers stopping rallies 
around $2,400, creating the pressure buildup that should end upin a rally.

most interesting part of this setup is the difference between sentiment and 
structure. Right now, sentiment says ETH is weak. Ethereum has been 
underperforming Bitcoin, especially during periods when it struggled to hold 
momentum above the $2,000 region. However, if the 2026 compression resolves 
the same way as 2017 and 2020, the projection is that the expansion phase 
would produce a percentage gain materially smaller than those prior cycles yet 
still large enough to carry ETH well into the five-figure range. Related

Went Public The prediction is that Ethereum breaks out of its range below 
$2,400, continues this run to break out of the higher timeframe resistance 
around $4,900, and then reaches new price highs. This would see the Ethereum 
price reaching at least $8,000, which, from the current trading range near 
$2,200 represents a gain of about 264%. On the other hand, many market experts 
are predicting an Ethereum price rally above $10,000. Major incoming catalysts 
for such a rally include the Glamsterdam upgrade, which could triple 
Ethereum&#8217;s Layer 1 throughput and the expected passage of the CLARITY Act.
