Both institutional and speculative demand are driving ETH higher as investors buy the news on major regulatory progress, adding weight to the end-of-cycle Ethereum price outlook.

Geopolitical and macroeconomic FUD no longer clouds the narrative, with ever-closer regulatory clarity fueling a capital rotation into the altcoin market.

Markets are now pricing in “Crypto Week,” as the U.S. House vote flips to advance the CLARITY Act, GENIUS Act, and Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act.

This shift has seen a tangible impact: Wednesday marked the highest ever inflow day for spot ETH ETFs, with $726.6 million flowing in—a strong vote of confidence from traditional finance.

Coinglass data shows Ethereum open interest has soared to a record $46 billion, surpassing the peaks of the post-US-election and post-inauguration rallies as regulatory promises deliver.

This derivatives activity has amplified upside volatility, as $145 million in short liquidation during Wednesday trading triggered a short squeeze, pushing Ethereum’s weekly gain past 20%.

Ethereum Price Analysis: Can the Rally Continue Through July?

The Ethereum price rally stands to continue, with a full breakout from an ascending broadening wedge pattern still unfolding.

The pattern sets a local top target around $3,750, the highest level reached by Ethereum year to date, but faces tough resistance today around $3,480 as buy pressure begins to show its cracks.

The RSI now sits deep in overbought territory at 82, underscoring that the prevailing trend remains firmly bullish despite the near-term friction.

Still, the MACD line continues to widen its gap above the signal line, a strong sign that an uptrend is the prevailing trend despite some friction.

The immediate 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level at $3,190 is the most credible support, marking a correction of 6.3% that could form a base for the next move once volatility tapers off.

From there, a decisive move above $3,480 would confirm a bullish continuation toward the $3,750 target—a potential 20% climb from current levels.

A further advance would place ETH on track to retest its all-time high at $4,100 and potentially enter a price discovery phase, though this likely depends on final approval of the 3 crypto bills.
