Ethereum (ETH) surged past $4,000 earlier today for the first time since March 2024. Having surpassed a key price level with a golden cross, analysts are confident that this could signal the beginning of the highly anticipated altcoin season.<\/p>\n

How Far Can The Golden Cross Push Ethereum?<\/h2>\n

Ethereum, the leading smart contract blockchain saw its native ETH token rise beyond $4,000 today. What\u2019s interesting is that ETH is not only showing signs of strength against USDT but also against Bitcoin (BTC).<\/p>\n

In the ETH\/BTC daily trading chart below, it can be seen that ETH has been making gains against the top cryptocurrency. The ETH\/BTC trading pair has surged from 0.032 on November 21 to 0.04 at the time of writing.<\/p>\n

Continued strength against BTC is important for any potential upcoming altseason \u2014 a period marked by altcoins outperforming BTC as the latter continues to trade sideways within a range.<\/p>\n

Crypto analyst @venturefounder took to X to confirm<\/a> that ETH has completed its first golden cross of the year on the daily chart. The analyst highlighted the bullish momentum a golden cross can impart to ETH\u2019s price, stating:<\/p>\n

Last time this happened, Ethereum was still in the consolidation stages of the bear market but it still went +129%. In the 2021 bull market, the last goldencross took ETH +2,323%.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\"golden<\/p>\n

For the uninitiated, a golden cross in trading is a bullish technical indicator that occurs when a short-term moving average crosses above a long-term moving average. In ETH\u2019s context, the 50-day MA has crossed above the 200-day MA, a sign of a strong rally or trend reversal.<\/p>\n

Another crypto analyst Altcoin Sherpa indicated<\/a> that if ETH decisively breaks through the $4,000 level, its next resistance level could be around the $4,800 to $5,000 price level. According to CoinGecko, ETH\u2019s current all-time high (ATH) value is $4,878 recorded back in November 2021.<\/p>\n

It is also worth highlighting that Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETF) are finally starting to get attention from institutional investors. According to data<\/a> from SoSoValue, US-based spot ETH ETFs attracted $428 million in daily total net inflows on December 5.<\/p>\n

Altseason On The Horizon?<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D), a key metric often used to determine the onset of the altseason has been on a continual decline over the past three weeks. BTC.D has crashed from about 61% to 55%, indicating strong recent performance by altcoins against BTC.<\/p>\n

\"btc<\/p>\n

Altcoin\u2019s resilience during yesterday\u2019s BTC flash crash to $90,500 is another bullish sign hinting toward a potential altcoin rally in the coming days. In addition, altcoin analyst Crypto Amsterdam noted<\/a> that it may be time for mid-cap altcoins to start their parabolic cycle.<\/p>\n

With high anticipation for an Ethereum \u2018god candle\u2019 that may catapult the digital asset to $5,000, the coming days are bound to be exciting for altcoin bulls. At press time, ETH trades at $4,000, up 2.5% in the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n
