Ethereum to Mimic Bitcoin and Go On a Massive Bull Move, $4,000 Target in Sight
Ethereum (ETH) is once again showing signs of life, as bulls aim to wrestle control from bearish forces. Crypto analyst Crypto GEMs on X (formerly Twitter) highlighted how Ethereum’s recent market behavior is beginning to mirror Bitcoin’s explosive growth earlier this year. The comparison fuels speculation that Ethereum could soon embark on a substantial bull run, potentially driving prices beyond the $4,000 mark.
In a recent post, Crypto GEMs charted ETH’s upward trajectory against Bitcoin’s surge in early 2024, drawing parallels between the two market leaders. According to the analyst, Ethereum is poised for a strong breakout, projecting an eventual rally to $4,200 if bullish momentum continues in the months ahead.

ETH Struggles and Signs of a Turnaround
Despite its status as the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, Ethereum has underwhelmed during the current 2024-2025 bull market. Compared to its historic runs in 2016-2017 and 2020-2021, ETH has struggled with development hurdles and has yet to reclaim its previous All-Time High (ATH) of nearly $5,000 from November 2021.
Currently trading around $2,600, Ethereum attempted a breakout above $3,000 in early June but faced resistance. The recent price trend, however, remains encouraging, with ETH quietly trending upward since hitting lows in May. With a market cap hovering around $312 billion, a major breakout could see Ethereum challenge the valuations of leading global companies.
Can Ethereum Regain Its Dominance?
Comparatively, Bitcoin has already surpassed its 2021 ATH of $69,000, reaching over $110,000 in 2025. Ethereum, by contrast, is still playing catch-up. Analysts warn that unless ETH decisively breaks past $3,000 and then $5,000, its market dominance could continue to erode.
