Ethereum price prediction: Crypto prices are ranging in the leadership of Bitcoin. The largest digital asset is stuck under $43,000 while support at $42,000 holds steady.<a href="https://coingape.com/ethereum-worth-1-billion-moved-to-cold-storage-eth-price-rally-ahead/">&nbsp;Ethereum</a>, its counterpart, has historically mirrored BTC’s behavior. With BTC anticipating a move to $44,000, there’s strong conviction <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/ethereum" target="_blank">ETH</a> could close the week above $2,400 resistance, thus paving the way for another climb to $2,700. 
Cryptocurrency market caps are also ranging, according to blockchain data and insights shared by Santiment on X. It is evident investors are still withdrawing following the sell-off in January soon after the spot BTC ETFs were approved. 
Markets currently lack the oomph they had since October as optimism for the ETF grew exponentially. Santiment researchers highlighted “a notable bearish sentiment that has taken hold of crypto discourse this week.”

Despite the correction from January’s peak of $2,700, Ethereum maintains a generally positive outlook backed by several factors including the upcoming ‘Dencun’ upgrade. 
Whether Ethereum will continue with the uptick from Q4 last year is something investors will wait to see. However, with the lineup ETH has, a bullish outcome is most likely in 2024. 
<h2 id="span-class-s3-1-ethereum-spot-etf-approval-the-race-is-on-span">1. Ethereum Spot ETF Approval: The Race Is On</h2> 
The approval of the first spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the US in January saw speculators quickly turn their attention to Ethereum. Despite its questionable status in the eyes of regulators like the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), Ether tends to follow in Bitcoin’s path. 
Two years after the initial approval of the first Bitcoin futures ETF in 2021, the Ethereum futures ETF was green-lighted in the US in 2023. Fast forward to 2024, 11&nbsp;<a href="https://coingape.com/spot-bitcoin-etfs-saw-33-million-net-inflow-blackrock-inflow-slows-to-record-low/">Bitcoin ETF</a>s hit the market. 
Interestingly, high-ranking individuals in the industry like BlackRock’s CEO Larry Fink believe there’s potential in an Ethereum ETF. 
“As I said, these are just stepping stones towards tokenization,” Fink said during an interview with CNBC in January. 
If drums start beating for an Ethereum ETF, there will be reason to speculate on a significant price rally. However, with Ethereum’s security status not entirely determined by regulators, the wait could be longer than many anticipate. 
An Ethereum spot ETF makes it easier for traditional investors to get exposure to Ethereum without directly owning or managing cryptocurrencies,” <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.bitget.com/register?languageType=0&amp;channelCode=gaothomas&amp;vipCode=vasz&amp;utm_campaign=vasz&amp;groupId=232632&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gclid=CjwKCAiA8YyuBhBSEiwA5R3-E-zq72iFuvb_SN77NQPI9kDhN27ILAYI2VMgntjh9yoKqy-HotoBsxoC4VwQAvD_BwE" target="_blank">Bitget</a> Managing Director Gracy Chen said in an exclusive statement to CoinGape. “This increased accessibility could attract a broader range of investors, including institutional investors who might prefer traditional investment tools.”

<h2 class="p1" id="2-ethereum-s-upcoming-dencun-upgrade">2. Ethereum’s Upcoming Dencun Upgrade</h2> 
The Ethereum community is a heartbeat away from the implementation of the Dencun upgrade on the third and final testnet, Holesky. Various network enhancements are expected from the major upgrade ranging from improved scalability to reducing transaction fees on Layer 2 protocols with the implementation of a new technology referred to as&nbsp;<a href="https://coingape.com/ethereum-dencun-upgrade-unleashes-proto-danksharding-on-goerli-testnet/">proto-danksharding</a>. 
Ethereum price is expected to start thawing following the testnet launch on February 7, especially with the mainnet debut expected before the end of Q1. 
<h2 class="p1" id="3-ethereum-price-prediction-as-eth-bottoms-out">3. Ethereum Price Prediction As ETH Bottoms Out</h2> 
Ethereum price prediction reveals that Ether may have bottomed out in the region around $2,200 and is in the initial stages of an extended north-targeting trajectory. 
In addition to the the primary support at $2,200, ETH holds above two other key levels; the ascending channel’s lower and middle boundaries. 
Recent bullish crossovers among the moving averages back Ethereum’s bullish case, underscoring the growing investor risk appetite as confirmed by the Money Flow Index (MFI) which holds at 73 after diving into the oversold region at 28 early this week.

If Ethereum’s outlook stays bullish in the coming weeks ahead of the Dencun upgrade on the mainnet, it might be extremely conservative to place Ether above $2,700, especially with levels above $3,000 being within reach.
