ETH is <a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/currencies\/ethereum\/\">trading at $2,768<\/a>, up 0.58%, with a daily open of $2,663.38, a high of $2,689, and a low of $2,655. While still in a consolidation phase, technical indicators hint at a potential trend shift.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"287\" data-end=\"512\">A strong support zone between $2,227 and $2,400 has repeatedly prevented ETH from dropping further, acting as a key demand area. This level previously fueled a rally above $3,500 in late 2024 before facing selling pressure.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"462\" data-end=\"899\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-629464 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ETHUSD_2025-02-23_03-14-26.png\" alt=\"Ethereum price\" width=\"1281\" height=\"545\" srcset=\"https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ETHUSD_2025-02-23_03-14-26.png 1281w, https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ETHUSD_2025-02-23_03-14-26-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ETHUSD_2025-02-23_03-14-26-1024x436.png 1024w, https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ETHUSD_2025-02-23_03-14-26-768x327.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1281px) 100vw, 1281px\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\" data-start=\"462\" data-end=\"899\">ETHUSD Analysis Source: Tradingview<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"901\" data-end=\"1431\">The chart also shows a well-defined bearish channel that dominated ETH&rsquo;s price action from mid-December 2024 to February 2025. Multiple sell signals (B &ndash; Bearish indications) were triggered during this phase, leading to a steady decline in price. However, ETH has now broken out of this downward structure, signaling a potential shift in market sentiment.<\/p>\n<div class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col flex-grow\">\n<div class=\"min-h-8 text-message flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 whitespace-normal break-words text-start [.text-message+&amp;]:mt-5\" dir=\"auto\" data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"4b8b42ba-0c42-4055-9619-42c620db4aa6\" data-message-model-slug=\"gpt-4o\">\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden first:pt-[3px]\">\n<div class=\"markdown prose w-full break-words dark:prose-invert light\">\n<h2 data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"67\">Ethereum Price Eyes Breakout As RSI Recovers, $2,400 Support In Focus<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-start=\"1433\" data-end=\"1823\">The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 46.14, slightly below the neutral 50 level. This indicates that the RSI is recovering from oversold conditions. If the RSI crosses above 50, it would confirm a strengthening bullish momentum, potentially attracting more buyers.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1825\" data-end=\"2328\">ETH faces a key resistance level at $4,100, which could act as the next major target if the price successfully breaks above $3,000. This would confirm the bullish breakout and open the door for further upside movement.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1825\" data-end=\"2328\">However, a failure to hold above $2,400 could invalidate the bullish scenario, leading to another retest of the $2,227 support level. A breakdown below this zone could result in further selling pressure, possibly dragging ETH toward $2,000 or lower. If selling pressure increases and ETH fails to hold support, it could trigger a deeper retracement.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"70\">BTC Bull Token Presale Races Toward $3 Million &ndash; Best Crypto To Buy Now?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"72\" data-end=\"373\">Meanwhile, as the Ethereum price&nbsp;struggles at key levels, bullish momentum continues for <a href=\"https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/visit\/btcbull\" rel=\"nofollow\">BTC Bull Token (BTCBULL)<\/a>, a new Bitcoin-themed meme coin that has already raised over $2.6 million in its presale as investors flock to a project that will reward holders with real Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"72\" data-end=\"373\">BTC Bull Token introduces a unique Bitcoin giveaway model, airdropping BTC when its price reaches key milestones, starting at $150,000 and for every $50,000 increase thereafter.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"72\" data-end=\"373\">Additionally, a BTCBULL token burn will be triggered for every $25,000 rise in Bitcoin&rsquo;s price, reducing supply and potentially driving up its value.
