As of December 29, 2025 (GMT-5), Ethereum (ETH) tracked Bitcoin’s intraday volatility but underperformed relative to BTC, trading between a low of $2,885 and a high of $2,972 during the Asian session—briefly testing resistance near $2,970 before succumbing to broader crypto market selling pressure and closing lower at approximately $2,910, marking a 1.2% 24-hour decline with a trading volume of $22.45 billion and a market cap of $348.2 billion. The initial upward push, fueled by spillover momentum from BTC’s rally past $90,000, renewed institutional interest in ETH tokenized products, and optimism around the upcoming 2025 Fusaka upgrade timeline, was offset by lingering concerns over declining DEX volume (down 12% week-over-week) and persistent ETH ETF outflows (totaling $95 million over the past three sessions), while overall market sentiment remained cautious as trading volume stayed 10% below the 30-day moving average. Technically, immediate support for ETH held at $2,890–$2,900 and resistance at $2,960–$2,975, with market focus aligned with BTC on the upcoming Federal Reserve policy meeting minutes for potential directional cues; the next-day outlook for ETH is cautiously bullish, with a projected target price of $2,945.75.

The market outlook for tomorrow is bullish, with a target price of 2997.02.
