Analysts believe Ether’s&nbsp;price could rally to all-time highs over the next couple of months following the launch of the first-ever spot Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the United States. Traders believe these funds are “heavily undervalued.”
The spot Ether (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/ethereum-price">ETH</a>)&nbsp;ETFs started trading on July 23, a day after the US Securities and Exchange Commission&nbsp;<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/spot-ethereum-etfs-begin-trading-sec-approval">gave the final approval</a> to issuers, including BlackRock, Fidelity, 21Shares, Bitwise, Franklin Templeton, VanEck and Invesco Galaxy.
Within just 15 minutes of trading, the ETFs recorded an impressive volume of $120 million.

“The ETH ETF has insane numbers. First 15 minutes already 50% of Bitcoin’s first day in terms of volume: $112 million,” Michaël van de Poppe, founder and CEO of trading firm MNTrading, <a href="https://x.com/CryptoMichNL/status/1815749034553864247" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">wrote</a> in his own X response.
<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “The Ethereum ETF launch is heavily undervalued, and I expect it to trade towards an ATH in the coming 1–2 months.”
</blockquote>
Meanwhile, fellow trader Daan Crypto Trades <a href="https://x.com/DaanCrypto/status/1815750540866760726" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">described</a> the initial flows as “decent,” predicting heightened crypto market volatility.
<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “Going to be a volatile day ahead with lots of movement, I’m assuming!”
</blockquote>
In an earlier post, Daan Crypto Trades <a href="https://x.com/DaanCrypto/status/1815748954929410334" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">shared</a> the chart below showing the key levels ETH’s price needed to clear in its recovery path. 
According to their analysis, Ether bulls needed to overcome resistance from a stubborn supply zone stretching from $2,672 to $3,730 to secure the uptrend. This was also dependent on holding firmly above $3,350. 
<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “ETH Levels are clear. Needs to hold $3350 and it would look strong. Expecting a lot of movement these days surrounding the ETF launch.”
</blockquote>

“ETH’s price hits $3,450 as investors buckle up for a wild ride,” <a href="https://x.com/alessaoncrypto/status/1815772566625153075" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">declared</a> crypto investor Alessa Mutto in a July 23 post on X, adding, “I’m very bullish about crypto and ETFs and believe they will go parabolic in the next few years.”
However, Mutto admitted that, with time, spot Ether inflows will tell where Ether’s price will go moving forward.

<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “Here’s volume after the first 15 minutes of trading. Total of $112m traded for the group (which is A TON vs a normal ETF launch but only about half of what Bitcoin ETFs’ volume pace was on DAY ONE, altho 50% would exceed expectations IMO).”
