Ethereum Price Prediction: How Low Can ETH Go If $2K Support Decisively Cracks?

Ethereum remains under pressure after failing to reclaim a major resistance cluster. The price is now hovering around a key long-term support zone. The broader structure suggests sellers still dominate the market, while weakening demand from US investors adds another layer of caution.  Ethereum Price Analysis: The Daily Chart  On the weekly timeframe, $ETH has extended its rejection from the major horizontal resistance region around $2.4K. This zone has repeatedly acted as a pivotal level throughout the current cycle and has once again capped upside momentum. The rejection has pushed the asset back toward the ascending trendline that has supported the market since the 2022 bear market bottom.  $ETH is currently trading around $2K, just above the trendline and the $1.8K demand zone. This area represents the most important support cluster on the chart, as it combines a horizontal support area with the long-term rising trendline.  As long as $ETH remains above this confluence, the long-term market structure will be intact. However, a decisive breakdown below the trendline and the $1.8K support region could trigger a catastrophic correction toward the next major support area near $1,500 and cause more panic, even among long-term investors.  On the upside, the $2.4K zone remains the primary resistance. Reclaiming

Debate on CLARITY Act continues this week as US Senate returns

US Senate consideration of the Digital Asset Clarity (CLARITY) Act is likely resume as members reconvene this week after an extended Memorial Day holiday.  Many US lawmakers and crypto industry leaders are pushing for consideration of the CLARITY Act, a crypto market structure bill introduced by Republicans and passed by the House of Representatives in July 2025.  The bill, expected to give more authority to the federal commodities regulator over digital assets, passed two crucial committees before the one-week break. It has been debated in Congress amid pushback from industry and banking representatives over stablecoins, tokenized equities and other issues.  “This will be actually the biggest financial regulatory bill that Congress has done in quite some time, certainly since Dodd-Frank,” Coinbase chief policy officer Faryar Shirzad said in a Monday Fox Business interview, referring to a 2010 law in response to the 2008 financial crisis.  Coinbase chief policy officer Faryar Shirzad. Source: Fox Business  JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon said on Friday that the banking industry would not accept the CLARITY Act as written, arguing that the bill allows crypto companies to pay interest on user deposits and stablecoin balances.  This week, lawmakers in the Senate will have the opportunity to start consolidating the versions of market

Bitcoin falls to 2-month low as divergence to equities deepens

Bitcoin fell to its lowest level in almost two months on Tuesday as cryptocurrencies continue to diverge from traditional equity markets.  Bitcoin (BTC) fell to a low of $70,023 on Coinbase early on Tuesday, its lowest level since April 7, marking a daily decline of more than 4% and a weekly loss of 8%, according to TradingView. Bitcoin is down 44% from its October peak of $126,000.  US stock markets such as the S&P 500 have meanwhile hit a record high of just over 7,600 points on Monday, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq peaked at over 27,000 points.  Andri Fauzan Adziima, research lead at Bitrue Research Institute, told Cointelegraph that some analysts have noted that Bitcoin is the only major asset in contraction right now, and the divergence is notable.  “It shows Bitcoin is trading more like a high-beta risk asset tied to macro sentiment rather than an independent hedge,” he added.  “This gap highlights current weakness, but it also sets up potential for stronger relative performance once macro conditions improve. I view it as a temporary phase in the cycle, not a permanent shift.”  Analytics platform Santiment said on Monday that “the gap between traditional equities and crypto has become increasingly difficult for traders to ignore.”  “This

Coinbase Stock tests $190 resistance while the daily chart stays weak

COIN — daily chart with candlesticks, EMA20/EMA50 and volume.Daily Technical Outlook for Coinbase StockTrend and Moving Averages  On the daily timeframe, COIN sits below the 20-day EMA at $190.84, the 50-day at $192.79, and the 200-day at $224.23. For Coinbase Stock, trading under this 20/50/200-day stack keeps the primary bias bearish until those levels are reclaimed.  Momentum and Volatility  Daily RSI(14) is 48.64, hovering just under the midline. Momentum is neutral to soft, not yet a trend reversal.  Daily MACD remains below the signal with a negative histogram (line -2.71, signal -0.58, hist -2.13). Therefore, downside momentum still outweighs any nascent bounce.  Bollinger Bands place the mid near $194.77with the lower band at $174.18. Because price is below the mid-band, overhead remains capped.  Daily ATR(14) is 13.5, indicating enough volatility to widen both upside squeezes and downside air pockets. The daily pivot sits at $186.57with R1 at $194.29and S1 at $181.31. Closing above the pivot improves near-term footing; however, the $192–$195zone is the first real test.  Intraday Outlook: 1-Hour and 15-Minute Context1-Hour Momentum and Levels  Meanwhile, the 1-hour chart shows a counter-trend push. Price is above the 20-EMA ($184.56) and 50-EMA ($186.11) but still just under the 200-EMA at $189.93. Intraday momentum is positive, yet the 200-hour acts

Binance adds US stock trading in push beyond crypto

Binance has launched US equities trading for eligible users and plans to add tokenized stocks as part of a broader push to expand beyond crypto.  Users will be able to trade more than 7,000 stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) with zero commission, buy fractional shares from $5 and access select equities on a 24/5 basis, according to an announcement shared with Cointelegraph.  The exchange said it is also planning to introduce tokenized stocks as part of its vision for a “multi-asset financial super app.”  The move puts Binance more directly in competition with Coinbase and other platforms trying to bring stocks, ETFs, derivatives and tokenized assets into a single trading account. Coinbase rolled out commission-free US stock and ETF trading with 24/5 availability in December 2025.  “Tokenization has the potential to reshape financial markets by giving users greater control, more flexibility, and ultimately more financial freedom,” said Binance co-CEO Richard Teng. “We see a significant opportunity to make financial assets more accessible, more useful, and more connected across traditional and digital markets.”  The new offering, bStocks, is enabled through Binance‘s broker-dealer, Nest Trading Limited, based in Abu Dhabi’s International Financial Center (ADGM).

Bitmine shares (BMNR) are trading around $19, down 1.40% on the day and 39% year-to-date.

Arbitrums 22M ARB transfer sparks concern – Why traders watch THIS support

Arbitrum-linked wallets transferred 22 million $ARB worth approximately $2.3 million to Coinbase during the last 24 hours, drawing attention to potential supply entering the market.  Data showed that one wallet still held 55.89 million $ARB valued at $5.87 million, while Arbitrum:Gnosis retained 85.22 million $ARB worth $8.94 million. However, the broader exchange picture pointed in a different direction.  Over the past seven days, nearly $11 million worth of $ARB left centralized exchanges, indicating that investors continued moving tokens into self-custody. This contrast highlighted a growing tug-of-war between possible distribution from team-linked wallets and steady accumulation from market participants.  Can $ARB defend its final support?  Price action weakened considerably after $ARB fell below its ascending channel, which had guided the recovery from March through early May.  Following the breakdown, sellers pushed the token toward the critical $0.1006 support level, where $ARB traded near $0.1028 at press time. The decline also placed the market well below the $0.1164 resistance zone and significantly beneath the major barrier at $0.1447.  The MACD line remained below the signal line, while the histogram stayed negative despite showing reduced downside pressure compared to earlier readings.  Although selling activity eased slightly, buyers had not yet reclaimed key levels. Therefore, $ARB remained vulnerable unless demand returned
