Is The Bullrun Over? ETH USD Plummets to $4,100 Overnight

By Akiyama Felix

The ETH dip against USD raises questions about the bull market’s health. After closing near its all-time high(ATH) of $4,800, ETH slid below $4,100 before bouncing back to the $4,200 area.

However, the current pullback feels like a routine shakeout in a cycle that is still gaining momentum. ETH USD has been flying from under $3,000 to just a shy below ATH, an almost 70% run in a month, eventually bringing a correction to maintain a healthy chart.

Right now, ETH ▲4.89% is still looking bullish despite the current dip. Institutional buys remain active, and the fundamentals are still there.
