Ethereum price started a recovery wave above $2,880. ETH might gain bullish momentum if it manages to settle above the $3,000 resistance.
Ethereum price managed to stay above $2,750 and started a recovery wave, like Bitcoin. ETH price was able to climb above the $2,800 and $2,850 levels.
The bulls were able to push the price above the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,058 swing high to the $2,620 low. Besides, there was a break above a key bearish trend line with resistance at $2,950 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
Ethereum price is now trading above $2,840 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. It is also above the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,058 swing high to the $2,620 low.
If there is another recovery wave, the price could face resistance near the $2,980 level. The next key resistance is near the $3,000 level. The first major resistance is near the $3,060 level. A clear move above the $3,060 resistance might send the price toward the $3,150 resistance. An upside break above the $3,150 region might call for more gains in the coming days. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $3,220 resistance zone or even $3,250 in the near term.
If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,000 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,920 level. The first major support sits near the $2,880 zone.
A clear move below the $2,880 support might push the price toward the $2,800 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,740 region in the near term. The next key support sits at $2,650 and $2,620.

BitGo’s move creates further competition in a burgeoning European crypto market that is expected to generate $26 billion revenue this year, according to one estimate. BitGo, a digital asset infrastructure company with more than $100 billion in assets under custody, has received an extension of its license from Germany’s Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), enabling it to offer crypto services to European investors. The company said its local subsidiary, BitGo Europe, can now provide custody, staking, transfer, and trading services. Institutional clients will also have access to an over-the-counter (OTC) trading desk and multiple liquidity venues.The extension builds on BitGo’s previous Markets-in-Crypto-Assets (MiCA) license, also issued by BaFIN, and adds trading to the existing custody, transfer and staking services. BitGo acquired its initial MiCA license in May 2025, which allowed it to offer certain services to traditional institutions and crypto native companies in the European Union.Read more
