Story: Ethereum’s Failed Golden Cross Raises Concerns – Can ETH Still Hit $3,000?

Ethereum (ETH) is currently struggling to maintain its bullish momentum, despite a recent golden cross on the daily chart—an event that typically signals a strong uptrend.

A golden cross occurs when the 50-day moving average (short-term trend) crosses above the 200-day moving average (long-term trend). It’s usually seen as a powerful bullish signal.

An analyst known as “Honey” on social media platform X pointed out that Ethereum’s price remained flat around the time of the golden cross, with some slight downward pressure.

This weak reaction stands in stark contrast to the last golden cross in late 2024, where Ethereum quickly surged.

5 / 11

Currently, Ethereum is trading around $2,548, down 2.1% over the last 24 hours. Despite briefly touching $2,630, ETH couldn’t hold that level.

So, what does this mean for Ethereum price predictions? Analysts are turning cautious. Some now believe that Ethereum could face a sluggish Q3, especially if Bitcoin stays below…

Still, Ethereum has managed to hold support near $2,400, which is a positive sign for long-term holders. This level has proven to be a strong base in previous corrections.

Interestingly, despite the current lack of momentum, not all experts are bearish. Some long-term analysts still see Ethereum hitting $10,000 later in this market cycle.

However, for Ethereum to start climbing again, it will likely need a fresh wave of liquidity and investor confidence.

10 / 11

In conclusion, while Ethereum recently formed a golden cross—a sign that typically leads to a rally—it failed to deliver a strong price reaction.

11 / 11

Yet, Ethereum’s long-term outlook remains promising. Even though the path to $3,000 may be delayed, ETH still holds strong technical support and long-term potential.
