The Ethereum price (ETH) has jumped 12.5% in the past 24 hours, now trading above $2,000 following the successful deployment of the Pectra upgrade.On May 7, the Ethereum team announced that Pectra was already live on the project’s mainnet after months of waiting.Pectra is live on Ethereum mainnet!– Smart account wallet UX features now active– L2 scaling data storage blobs increased by 2x– Validator UX improvements liveCommunity members will continue to monitor for any issues over the next 24 hours.— Ethereum.org (@ethereum) May 7, 2025The implementation was completed at 10:05 A.M. UTC and the network will be monitored in the next 24 hours to ensure that it continues to function properly following the update.Ethereum supporters have been eagerly expecting Pectra as competition in the smart contracts space continues to heat up.One of the most attractive aspects of Pectra is that it makes Ethereum (ETH) a deflationary coin. This improves the baseline Ethereum price prediction as a portion of transaction fees will now be used to burn ETH tokens to reduce the circulating supply.Ethereum Price Prediction: Hourly Chart Shows Huge Spike After PectraETH rose rapidly right after Pectra was successfully deployed. The hourly price chart shows a strong bullish breakout above the $1,850 resistance with 2X trading volumes.This favors a bullish short-term outlook for the token. The price has already reached overbought levels in the Relative Strength Index (RSI) but that does not necessarily mean that the uptrend will reverse. It actually points to rapidly growing positive momentum.The 21-hour EMA has crossed above the 200-day EMA with strong volumes as well and has managed to stay above the latter since the breakout occurred.At this point, late buyers should look for attractive entries rather than trying to defy the trend as ETH investors could be quite enthusiastic throughout the session and that should keep the token’s demand at a high level.How high the Ethereum price can go from here would depend on multiple factors. For now, the most critical area of resistance to watch would be the $2,000 level as this is a psychological level. If the price rises above this marker, it would confirm a bullish outlook for ETH that could result in a push toward the $3,000 area next.Reaching $10,000 may take some time but Pectra does set in motion some necessary changes that will help the Ethereum network maintain its lead in the smart contracts space.Likewise, Bitcoin’s outlook has strengthened in recent days as it surpasses the $100,000 mark yet again – a move that could lift related presales positioned to benefit from BTC’s momentum.BTC Bull Token (BTCBULL) Gives Investors the Chance to Earn Passive Income as Bitcoin Keeps RisingBTC Bull Token (BTCBULL) is a meme coin with an attractive rewards mechanism tied to the performance of the top crypto.Investors are quickly rallying behind BTCBULL, with the project raising an impressive $5.4 million in a short span – a clear sign of surging interest in its unique value proposition.BTCBULL rewards its holders every time Bitcoin climbs by $25,000, starting from a baseline price of $100,000.At $125K, a portion of BTCBULL’s supply will be burned to create scarcity and drive up demand.The next milestone at $150K unlocks an even bigger reward – a direct Bitcoin airdrop for all investors holding the token.As BTC rises to $100,000, the odds that the first milestone will soon be hit have increased. To buy $BTCBULL and be one of the first to benefit from the project’s upcoming token burn, visit the BTC Bull Token website and connect your wallet (e.g. Best Wallet).You can either swap ETH or USDT for this token or use a bank card to make your investment.The post Ethereum Price Surges After Pectra Upgrade – Bulls Now Eye $10,000 Target appeared first on Cryptonews.
