Ethereum (ETH) is currently trading at $2,361.73 on Monday, up 2.89%, with 24-hour trading volume reaching $56.91 billion, marking a 17.2% increase, according to CoinMarketCap data.

Despite this intraday gain, the cryptocurrency has declined 18.2% over the past week, having traded near $2,372.40. Analysts note that ETH is attempting to stabilize after a steep drop, with the weekly low around $2,156 providing critical support.

Ethereum Faces High-Timeframe Downtrend

In X post, Crypto analyst Lennaert Snyder observed that Ethereum, like Bitcoin, remains in a high-timeframe downtrend characterized by lower highs and lower lows. “Shorting at this support level makes little sense.

We are watching for potential long triggers if ETH reclaims higher liquidity zones,” Snyder said. Market participants are monitoring the $2,473 level as a potential resistance point that could unlock a rebound toward $2,761.

Ethereum’s chart currently suggests two short-term scenarios. If buyers step in at $2,156, ETH could attempt a rebound toward $2,473, where stop-loss hunting and resistance selling may occur. Breaking above this level could open a path toward $2,761, signaling a potential trend reversal or retracement.

Conversely, failure to hold support at $2,156 could accelerate the downtrend, triggering additional stop-losses and pushing prices lower. Analysts note the possibility of a minor double-bottom or consolidation at the weekly low, which may provide a high-probability reversal setup for future long positions if buyer demand returns.

BitMine Boosts Ethereum Holdings

Las Vegas–based BitMine Immersion Technologies strengthened its Ethereum position this week, adding 41,788 ETH and raising its total holdings to 4.285 million ETH.

Purchases averaged $2,317 per coin, valuing the stake at roughly $9.9 billion as of Monday, Feb, 2. The company’s total crypto, cash, and “moonshot” investments now stand at $10.7 billion, including smaller Bitcoin holdings.

A significant portion of BitMine’s ether, approximately 2.9 million ETH, is now staked, generating estimated annualized revenue of $188 million through its Made in America Validator Network (MAVAN), scheduled for early 2026 rollout.

Executive Chairman Thomas Lee said the buying strategy reflects Ethereum’s current undervaluation relative to on-chain activity. “We view this pullback as an opportunity to strengthen exposure while fundamentals improve,” Lee stated.

BitMine’s accumulation emphasizes growing institutional interest in Ethereum and highlights the $2,156 support as a potential near-term floor for investors amid ongoing market volatility.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
