The Ethereum price is up almost 10% in the last 24 hours to trade at $2,442 as of 8:29 p.m. EST as trading volume jumped 45% to $23 billion.

This surge comes about as ETC Group says ETH could outperform Bitcoin in 2024. André Dragosch, the Head of Research at ETC Group, highlighted that the anticipated turnaround in Ether’s performance relative to Bitcoin next year will be driven by its technological advancements and Ethereum’s prominent position as a leading smart contract platform.

In a recent report from ETC Group, Dragosch highlighted factors that could drive an increase in the price of Ether. One such factor is the deflationary “burn mechanism” introduced through Ethereum Improvement Proposal EIP-1559 in August 2021.

“Ether’s net supply issuance is at a negative 1.1% per annum, with approximately 1.84% per annum currently being burned. Traditional investors can view the staking yield as a type of equity dividend, while the burn rate can be seen as an equity buyback yield,” said Dragosch

The Ethereum Price Poised To Break Above The Ascending Triangle

The Ethereum price shows signs of a breakout from the ascending triangle pattern at $2420, which signals a continuation of the bullish trend.

ETH targets a new high, trading above the 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages. This confirms the prevailing bullish sentiment and establishes short-term support levels.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is bullish as it moves upward from the midline level of 50 to 67, nearing the overbought threshold of 70.

The Ethereum Price Could Reach $3,000

Bullish investors maintain a sustained upward trend, anticipating movements above the ascending triangle. Their target is a potential peak of approximately $3,000, with expectations set for the first quarter of 2024.

However, a potential downside scenario is possible, allowing bears to influence a decline in price toward the support zone at $2,240, which aligns with the lower boundary of the ascending triangle.

As the Ethereum price keeps surging, investors who are looking to make a quick 100X in 2024 should consider investing in $SPONGE and Meme Kombat. Experts say that these two coins are among the best meme coins to buy in 2024.
