Ethereum Price: What's Behind the ETH Rally?

After months of declines and dominating bearish sentiments, the Ethereum price is regaining bullish momentum. The market crashed with Trump’s tariff crash and other connected macroeconomic events, building fear among investors. Now, the crypto market is recovering, and the ETH rally is the prime example, with more than a 60% surge from the April crash. Interestingly, experts anticipate a further rally considering bullish factors. Let’s discuss.

Ethereum Price Soars 60%

The crypto market witnessed a major slump in April amid the Donald Trump tariff announcement. As a result, the Ethereum price crashed to a two-year low of $1,472. The consolidation remained for days before an uptrend began, resulting in the 60% recovery.

At present, ETH trades at $ 2,370, marking a 5% surge in the last 24 hours and 30% over the week. Additionally, it has a market capitalization of  $286.19B and a trading volume of $ 39.44 B.
