This important metric is tracked to gauge the proportion of the total crypto market cap commanded by the top cryptocurrency.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to the chart below, BTC dominance has been falling dramatically over the past two weeks &#8211; sliding from 61.1% on November 20 to 54.9% at the time of writing. As previously reported, trading firm QCP Capital highlighted BTC dominance sliding below 58% as a key condition that could signal the onset of the altcoin season.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-657590 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/btc-dominance.png?w=860&#038;resize=860%2C639\" alt=\"btc dominance\" width=\"860\" height=\"639\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With ETH now surpassing the $3,800 level, analysts are weighing in on how far the digital asset can rally. Crypto analyst @venturefounder <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/venturefounder\/status\/1864072162442662079\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">shared<\/a> his target for ETH on X, pointing to a prolonged cup-and-handle pattern forming for ETH since November 2021. He noted that if ETH decisively breaks $3,800, it could climb as high as $7,346.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-657589 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/cup-and-handle.png?resize=1483%2C883\" alt=\"ETH cup and handle\" width=\"1483\" height=\"883\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Similarly, crypto analyst Ali Martinez shared his insights on ETH\u2019s recent price action. Martinez emphasized that the $3,300 support level could be a \u2018potential buying opportunity\u2019 should the digital asset pullback from its recent surge.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-657592 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/eth-pullback.jpeg?w=860&#038;resize=860%2C606\" alt=\"eth pullback\" width=\"860\" height=\"606\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Martinez added that his mid-term target for ETH remains $6,000, while the long-term target is $10,000. The analyst also highlighted the Ethereum network\u2019s steady growth over the past month, with more than 134,000 new Ethereum addresses added daily.<\/p>\n<p>Another crypto enthusiast, @MisterSpread <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MisterSpread\/status\/1864328674692022480\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">noted<\/a> that if ETH breaks the $4,000 area, there is a \u201chigh chance we see a God candle to $5,000.\u201d Indeed, ETH breaking out of a three-year long downtrend and attempting to establish a new all-time high (ATH) has piqued the attention of the entire crypto industry.<\/p>\n<h2>Ethereum Fundamentals Continue Getting Stronger<\/h2>\n<p>Although BTC has led much of the current crypto rally, experts believe Ethereum might be the time to shine due to the multiple positive developments in the top smart contract platform. For instance, Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETF) are finally attracting large daily inflows, rivaling BTC ETFs consistently.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Further, several proposed network upgrades &#8211; including the Ethereum Improvement Proposal-7781 and the possibility of reduction in the amount of ETH required to participate in network staking could serve as catalysts for ETH to hit a new ATH.<\/p>\n<p>That said, concerns remain about ETH\u2019s \u2018ultrasound money\u2019 narrative due to the inflation surge witnessed in the cryptocurrency\u2019s issuance rate.
