Ether could see a rally to over $5,000 based on technical chart patterns, as analysts predict that Ether’s bullish momentum may extend another year until the end of 2025.
Ether (ETH) price could surge above the $5,000 all-time high, driven by its correlation with Bitcoin (BTC) price, which surpassed $100,000 for the first time in history on Dec. 5.
Ether’s rally to the $5,000 record high may be a “minimum target,” according to fractal patterns shared by popular crypto analyst Titan of Crypto in a Dec. 6 X post.

In crypto trading, technical traders use price fractal patterns to identify key support and resistance levels and potential trend reversals based on historical data.
However, Ether’s price remains 18% below its old all-time high of $4,800, which is a significant resistance level for the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency.
