<p><a href="https://ambcrypto.com/search/ethereum" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-wpel-link="internal">Ethereum [ETH]</a> started 2024 on a smashing note, reaching $2,400 for the first time since May 2022.</p>
<p>The second-largest crypto made gains of 5.56% in the last 24 hours of trading, according to <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-wpel-link="external">CoinMarketCap</a>, setting the stage for what many participants view as the inevitable super rally.</p>
<h4>The New Year’s Day rally</h4>
<p>According to AMBCrypto’s analysis of CryptoQuant’s data, Ethereum’s Taker Buy Sell Ratio stormed into the green territory as indicated below.</p>
<p>This indicated that buying pressure was stronger than selling pressure, and <span data-slate-fragment="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">more buyers were willing to buy coins at a higher price.

<p>But the party may just be starting. Noted technical analyst <a href="https://x.com/ali_charts/status/1741814848982327779?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-wpel-link="external">Ali Martinez</a> pinned hopes on Ethereum to make further gains. He stated,</p>
<blockquote>
 <p><span class="css-1qaijid r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0 r-poiln3">“The path ahead of ETH </span><span class="css-1qaijid r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0 r-poiln3">is clear, with no significant supply barriers in sight, suggesting a potential rise to $2,700 or beyond. Additionally, a robust demand wall at $2,000 provides solid support, potentially cushioning any corrections.”</span></p>
</blockquote>
<p>AMBCrypto’s reading of Hyblock Capital’s data echoed this sentiment somewhat. The market sentiment was one of greed, implying that there was a likelihood of more accumulation, and hence, a price increase.</p>

<h4>Whales weren’t the drivers</h4>
<p>In a rather surprising observation, the latest rally was not carried by whale investors. The number of large transactions stayed muted on the first of January, AMBCrypto detected using Santiment’s data.</p>

<h4>Speculative bets on ETH jump</h4>
<p>As ETH rallied, the eyes of derivatives traders lit up. The Open Interest (OI) in ETH futures contracts surged to $8.16 billion, representing an increase of 7.41% in the last 24 hours, AMBCrypto observed using Coinglass’ data.</p>

<p>Moreover, the number of individuals holding long positions exceeded those betting on price declines in the last 24 hours. The Long/Short Ratio went above 1 for the first time since the 27th of December.</p>
