Dogecoin consolidates at key support zone as volume remains subdued

Bitcoin traders eye a re-test of resistance at $108,000, a daily candlestick 
close above this level could drive a potential breakout past the all-time high 
at $111,980. BTC should hold steady above $108,000 to end the ongoing 
consolidation. Institutional capital flows and relatively high correlation 
with BTC is likely to catalyze gains in top altcoins.

Ethereum is trading at a critical level after reclaiming the $2,400 mark, 
showing resilience in the face of market-wide volatility. Bulls have managed 
to defend key support levels following a recent fakeout below $2,200, but 
momentum remains fragile as ETH struggles to establish a clear trend. Despite 
attempts to push higher, price action is consolidating near the mid-range, 
suggesting indecision among traders. However, fundamental strength continues 
to build beneath the surface. Related Reading: Ethereum Fakes Out Bears – 
Altcoin Rally Depends On Key Level Breakout Top analyst Ted Pillows 
highlighted a major on-chain development: the percentage of Ethereum supply 
being staked has reached a new all-time high. This milestone signals rising 
confidence among long-term holders and validators, who are increasingly 
locking up ETH to secure the network and earn yield. Elevated staking levels 
historically coincide with lower active supply and reduced sell pressure—an 
encouraging sign for bulls anticipating a breakout. As macroeconomic 
uncertainty and geopolitical risks persist, Ethereum’s price behavior at this 
level could determine whether the broader altcoin market finally ignites. For 
now, ETH sits at a technical and psychological crossroads, with both bulls and 
bears preparing for the next major move. All eyes are on staking data and 
price structure to guide what comes next. Ethereum Builds Bullish Momentum As 
Staking Hits All-Time High Ethereum has climbed 75% from its April lows, 
showing strong recovery and resilience in a volatile market. Despite this 
impressive rebound, ETH remains nearly 98% below its all-time high, leaving 
significant upside potential. Many analysts believe Ethereum could be gearing 
up for a rally that may trigger the long-awaited altseason. However, caution 
still lingers in the market due to ongoing global risks and macroeconomic 
uncertainty, including rising interest rates and geopolitical tensions. The 
growing optimism is supported by improving on-chain fundamentals. Ted Pillows 
highlighted a key metric showing that the percentage of Ethereum supply staked 
has reached a new all-time high of 29.02%. This steady increase in staked ETH 
reflects strong long-term conviction from holders, who are choosing to lock up 
their assets to support the network and earn yield rather than sell during 
market turbulence. Historically, high levels of staking reduce active 
circulating supply, which can ease sell pressure and fuel bullish price 
movements. Combined with technical strength and growing confidence among long- 
term investors, Ethereum appears well-positioned for a breakout, provided 
bulls can hold current levels and reclaim resistance zones. Related Reading: 
Ethereum Reclaims $2,444 Level – Bullish Continuation In Focus ETH Reclaims 
Key Level But Faces Resistance Ethereum (ETH) is showing renewed strength 
after bouncing from its April 2025 lows and reclaiming the $2,400 level. On 
the weekly chart, ETH is up over 10% this week, closing firmly above the 
200-week simple moving average (SMA) at $2,437.52 — a key threshold that 
previously acted as both resistance and support in past cycles. Reclaiming 
this level is a bullish sign and shows that buyers are stepping back in after 
months of selling pressure. However, Ethereum now faces significant resistance 
around the $2,625–2,660 zone, where the 100-week and 50-week SMAs converge. 
This zone has historically served as a pivot for major price action, and a 
clear break above it would likely trigger a broader rally targeting the 
$2,800–$3,000 range. Volume has also picked up, signaling renewed interest, 
though it remains below early 2024 levels. This indicates cautious optimism 
among traders, especially as global macro uncertainty and geopolitical 
tensions continue to weigh on markets. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from
