Ethereum (ETH) made a strong comeback against Bitcoin (BTC) today. As highlighted in the Coidedition analysis, the major ETH/BTC charts have broken the long-term downtrend after a massive 48% meeting.
In particular, Ethereum beat an all-time high, surged to nearly $5,000 on Sunday. ETH rose to $4,950, surpassing previous record of $4,867 set on November 8, 2021. This is an important milestone in ETH as assets enter the price discovery phase where they reach new highs without resistance.
Ethereum’s comeback rally continues closely with the decline in Bitcoin’s advantage, down from 63% just a month ago. Ethereum reached a new peak on Sunday evening, but Bitcoin remained largely stable at around $115,500.
$ETH/BTC has now entered the accumulation phase, winning 48.52% from the low, breaking the downtrend of macros. When the $BTC dominance slides to 57.91%, the setup mirrors past cycles of the cycle that triggered AltCoin Rallies.

Analyst Miles Deutcher briefly summarizing the changes in market leadership, saying, “BTC has been exhausted, and ETH is not.”
In other words, Bitcoin rallies have stagnated near recent highs, but Ethereum is only just beginning to surge in momentum into unknown territory.

Ethereum has not been done yet
This setup reflects the conditions of past market cycles where Ethereum’s strength marked the beginning of the Altcoin season.
Analysts note that the breakout confirms previous forecasts that Ethereum could take the lead in driving the next capital stream across the crypto market. However, a massive sale followed shortly after the surge in Ethereum. The ETH price returned to $4,607 just hours after it exceeded $4,950 amidst the pressure to make a profit.
The pullback has raised some concerns, but analysts like Ali Martinez believe Ethereum is far from the end.
Large long positions at ETH to target $15,000
This bullish sentiment is further enhanced by new data from Lookonchain. This shows that whales are taking on an increasingly long position in Ethereum.
In a tweet, Lookonchain revealed that the whale “0x31F9” had bought $15.47 million to USDC on a high lipid platform, with long Bitcoin and Ethereum. In a follow-up post, another whale, “0x4174,” deposited $5.5 million on the same platform with 20x leverage.
The widely followed trader Machie brothers are reportedly longer on Ethereum with 25x leverage.

Many in particular believe that Ethereum is on track to break the $10,000 level this year. Industry leaders like Tomley have set even higher goals and are predicting ETH to reach $15,000 by the end of December.
Factors Add to ETH’s Bullish Outlook
Ethereum’s bullish outlook is further driven by institutional interests. Companies are currently buying bulk to establish finances, similar to previous trends in Bitcoin.
