Repeated failures above $2,500 leave Ethereum below the threshold with hours remaining, so Ethereum at or above $2,480 at 5 p.m. EDT is a meaningful underdog.
Ethereum needs only a 0.93% rise from $2,457.08, leaving the threshold within reach during volatile trading. Recent attempts to hold above $2,500 have repeatedly failed, however, and monetary conditions remain a headwind for risk assets. The prior day’s New York reference rate above $2,480 and sustained ETF inflows keep the outcome live, but a qualifying settlement remains a meaningful underdog.
