🚨#Ethereum Hits $4,300, Parabolic Run Next or Pullback Ahead?🚨
$ETH just ripped to $4,300. Is it too late to buy?
I’ve broken down price targets, key levels, ETF flows, and the ETH-linked alts most likely to move next.
Here’s my full game plan for ETH, altseason, and the key plays🧵👇
1/x $ETH is in its strongest uptrend vs $BTC since 2021.
We haven’t even touched the $4,850 ATH yet.
The question is: do we go parabolic now, or get a healthy pullback before the real breakout?
Let’s map both scenarios.
2/x Ethereum’s rally to $4,300 has opened the door for much higher prices into year-end.
If #Bitcoin pushes toward $150K and ETH/BTC climbs to 0.044, $ETH could hit $6,000–$7,000 this year. My conservative target? $6,600.
I’m positioning to capture that upside while protecting against a pullback.
3/x My trading setup:
Swing bot range: $3,350-$4,850
🔹$3,350 - key higher low from July & uptrend support
🔹$4,850 - previous ATH
The bot buys dips, sells rips, and accumulates without you needing perfect timing.
4/x Institutional flows are flipping bullish for $ETH.
In July, ETFs + treasuries held 7.1M ETH (~$24B).
Today, that’s $33B. On Aug 8th, ETH ETFs saw $460M inflows, more than BTC’s $400M that day.
5/x ETH’s smaller market cap means each institutional $ has more price impact than BTC.
I see $3,350 as the floor unless $BTC itself dumps hard.
The real battle: clearing $4,850. If that happens in Q4, $6K+ is in play fast.
6/x $BTC dominance tells us altseason is starting but not confirmed.
We dipped from 60.5% to 59.7%, the first sign of a possible downtrend since 2021.
Confirmation = weekly close < 60.5% & lower high under 62.5%.
Until then, patience is key.
7/x The $ETH linked alts I’m watching:
Core DeFi:
🔸 $UNI - flagship AMM, still flat.
🔸 $LINK - essential oracle, still cheap.
🔸 $CRV - stable swap king.
🔸 $COMP - OG lending market.
New DeFi:
🔸 $AERO - up 40% last week.
🔸 $PENDLE - yield trading for RWAs & stables.
🔸 $ENS - pure $ETH beta play.
🔸 $HOME - on-chain DeFi super app.
8/x I'm still avoiding most layer 2s & restaking
Adoption isn’t there yet. Institutions stick to #Ethereum mainnet and fork proven protocols.
A great example is World Liberty Financial forking Aave for its own lending & stablecoin platform.
9/x Stablecoins are ETH’s stealth bullish driver. Nearly all USDC/USDT supply sits on ETH.
Beyond those, I’m watching three plays:
🔸USD1 (World Liberty Financial) - Targets treasuries & sovereign funds. One deal could send supply from $2B → $100B.
🔸 @PlasmaFDN & @stable - Tether founder–backed chains with USDT as native gas. Gasless transfers, big Bitfinex support.
While valuations aren’t public yet, these have far greater upside than smaller-scale DeFi-native stables like USDE or DAI.
10/x The World Liberty ecosystem offers multiple ways to gain exposure:
🔸 $WLFI - governance token (TGE soon)
🔸 $BLOCK - led by WLFI’s CIO
🔸 $DOLO - founded by WLFI’s CTO
🔸 $ALTS stock - NASDAQ-listed, holds 7.5% of WLFI supply.
12/x So what is my game plan?
🔹Hold $ETH above $3,350 support.
🔹Focus on ETH-beta DeFi & stablecoin plays.
🔹Rotate into alts that have lagged when #Bitcoin dominance confirms breakdown.
🔹Stay patient, Q4 is when the big moves likely hit.
13/x $ETH is leading now. If BTC.D breaks down, altseason will follow.
Until then, hold strength, accumulate dips, and let institutions do the heavy lifting.
