ETH has been moving sideways for weeks. Buyers have struggled to push price above $2,375, and sellers have rejected each attempt at the upper range.

Analyst Na₿er shared a 4-hour chart showing ETH consolidating inside a tight range above support near $2,130–$2,180. He noted that volume spikes suggest buyers may be accumulating positions while price stays range-bound.

Analyst Sky shared a daily wedge chart showing ETH holding higher lows above key moving averages. He pointed to $2,460 as the breakout level, with the next major target zone between $2,961 and $3,161 — lining up with the 0.786 and 0.886 Fibonacci levels.

$2,400 Resistance Has Held for Two Months

Analyst Daan Crypto Trades posted on X that $ETH “keeps being capped by that ~$2.4K level,” adding it has traded against this area for close to two months. He said a break above would likely push ETH quickly toward the Daily 200MA/EMA near $2,600, while $2,100 remains the key high-timeframe support level for bulls to defend.

Immediate resistance sits at $2,300, then $2,320 and $2,335. A move above $2,375 could open a run toward $2,420–$2,440. On the downside, $2,250 is the first major floor, followed by $2,200 and $2,120.

Without a confirmed close above $2,375, ETH may continue ranging inside its current zone.

JPMorgan Files Ethereum-Based Treasury Fund With SEC

JPMorgan filed with the SEC on Tuesday to launch the JPMorgan OnChain Liquidity-Token Money Market Fund, ticker JLTXX. The fund will operate on the Ethereum blockchain through the bank’s Kinexys Digital Assets division.

JLTXX will invest primarily in short-term US Treasury securities with maturities of 93 days or less, plus overnight repurchase agreements backed by Treasuries or cash.

The fund introduces Token Class Shares, linking blockchain token balances one-to-one with shares on the fund’s official Investor Register. It uses a permissioned Ethereum overlay with smart contracts, AML compliance controls, and allow-listed addresses.

JPMorgan stated the fund is structured to meet Rule 2a-7 requirements and may qualify as a compliant reserve asset under the GENIUS Act for stablecoin issuers. Ethereum is the only supported blockchain at launch, though the filing allows for expansion to other chains later.
