After reclaiming the $4,500 level, the cryptocurrency is now facing one last obstacle before potentially breaking into uncharted territory. Crypto market expert Ted Pillows has set Ethereum\u2019s next price target at $5,000, signaling a potential new all-time high.<\/p>\n<h2>Ethereum Price Faces Major Hurdle Before $5,000<\/h2>\n<p>In a recent technical analysis published on X social media, Pillows <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/tedpillows\/status\/1967141974806589931?s=52\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">explained<\/a> that Ethereum has successfully <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-aggressive-buying-spree\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">reclaimed the $4,500 support<\/a> level, a point that had previously been a stumbling block for bulls. Now, the market is laser-focused on its next price hurdle at $4,880, which has emerged as the final barrier before a <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/could-ethereum-finally-be-gearing-up-for-a-breakout-heres-what-analysts-predict\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">potential breakout<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to his price chart, a daily candle close above the $4,880 resistance could open the doors to a fresh all-time high and quickly accelerate Ethereum\u2019s momentum toward the $5,000 milestone. Just last month, ETH shocked the market by breaking its 2021 all-time high and climbing past $4,900. Now, the cryptocurrency looks ready for its next big move, with Pillows confirming $5,000 as the short-term target.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"size-large wp-image-822432\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Ethereum-chart-from-Ted-Pillows.jpg?w=512&#038;resize=512%2C406\" alt=\"Ethereum\" width=\"512\" height=\"406\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Ethereum\u2019s struggle around the $4,880 level comes from <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereums-sudden-correction\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">repeated failures to push higher<\/a> at this point in previous sessions. Each rejection has reinforced $4,880 as a strong resistance, making it the decisive point for bulls to conquer. A clean break above it could invalidate <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-price-resume-downtrend-expert-bearish\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">bearish short-term pressure<\/a> and potentially trigger an influx of buying volume.<\/p>\n<p>However, if Ethereum once again fails to hold above this level, the price could retreat to lower supports. Pillows identified the $4,200 &#8211; $4,400 range as the primary demand zone where buyers could step back in. This area has historically provided strong support and could act as a springboard for another attempt to retest the resistance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>ETH Rejected At $4,650 But Holds Support<\/h2>\n<p>In a follow-up analysis, Pillows failed to reclaim the $4,650 level, making its path to reach the $4,880 resistance even more difficult. The rejection at $4,650 has raised concerns of a near-term pullback, with the $4,500 region now being the key support to watch.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If ETH holds above $4,500 and gains fresh bullish momentum, Pillows suggests that another attempt at reclaiming $4,650 could occur, potentially setting the stage for the long-awaited $4,880 breakout. On the downside, Ethereum <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/tedpillows\/status\/1967558122610024775?s=46\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">maintains<\/a> strong structural support between $3,800 and $4,000. This range has acted as a crucial demand zone during past corrections, <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-selling-pressure-weakens\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">absorbing selling pressure<\/a> and enabling bulls to re-accumulate.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For longer-term investors, Pillows noted that this support zone presents a significant <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-bullish-big-money-traders-buying-eth-dip\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">buy-dip opportunity<\/a>. He said that if ETH declines to this level, many altcoins would also enter attractive discount zones, presenting broader accumulation opportunities across the market.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/01HzGBmq\/\" alt=\"Ethereum\" width=\"2108\" height=\"1552\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ethereum price has been in a crucial consolidation phase, with analysts closely watching the next big move.
