Ethereum Price Forecast Eyes $4,000 As ERC20 Tokens Soar
Tokens in the ERC20 sector of the Ethereum ecosystem have recently performed remarkably well, creating momentum even for the second-largest cryptocurrency.
Insight from blockchain data analytics platform Santiment highlighted that “ERC20 have been well ahead of the markets on average,” with the sector increasing by 8.1% in the last seven days.
Some of the tokens in this segment performing extremely well include Toncoin (TON) and Ethena (ENA). Based on CoinGecko market data, TON is up 15% in 24 hours to $6.75. Although ENA boasts a staggering 96% surge, it faces rising selling pressure to drop 4% in 24 hours to $1.24.
Meanwhile, Ethereum hovers above $3,600 support after the bullish move it exhibited on Monday waned at $3,729 – the most recent high.
The bearish outlook from the Relative Strength Index (RSI) shows that ETH could claw back the accrued gains and possibly retest support at $3,500. Note that the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) reinforces this support area in the four-hour range.
The lower the RSI drops into the neutral region, the stronger the sellers get, increasing the chances of further decline. More conservative investors may wait until Ethereum price rebounds either from $3,600 or the grey band hosting both the 50-day EMA and the 200-day EMA before going all-in in ETH for a breakout to $4,000.
