[Gained 29% in a week—should I enter now, or wait?]
Today $ 2462; a week ago it was still below $ 1915—up by almost 29%. A month ago it was even cheaper—nearly a quarter cheaper. But yesterday alone it dropped back by 0.8%. So it’s been stuck in the range $ 2400-2600.
Honestly, this level makes it a bit hard for me to pull the trigger.
Not because I’m bearish. It’s because of an old injury from 2021. When the market starts giving you the illusion that it’s “about to break out,” my first reaction isn’t excitement—it’s caution. A move that’s too fast isn’t a good sign. After it comes back to wash things out, then it feels safer.
What’s really caught my attention recently isn’t the price—it’s the news: the Thai SEC has started discussing a compliance framework for an Ether ETF.
It sounds official, right? But there’s substance here. Once Asian ETF markets open the door for ETH, what comes in won’t be small retail money—it’ll be the kind of size that can keep buying for several months. The buying behavior of ETFs is—once they buy, they don’t move much. The lock-up effect is far harsher than almost any staking protocol.
The business logic checks out: if the ETF is compliant, institutions will dare to enter; if institutions enter, the ownership structure of ETH changes. That kind of shift won’t be visible within a month—but if you look back half a year later, you’ll probably slap your thigh in hindsight.
Of course, right now there’s still no definitive sign—it’s still in the draft stage. But you’ve seen this in 2017 too—from “regulatory crackdowns” to “compliant products going live.” Sometimes it just takes a few months.
My current plan is to wait. Not because I’m bearish, but because it hasn’t reached the entry point that makes me feel comfortable. If volume expands and breaks out in coordination, I’ll consider it; otherwise, I’ll stay put.
What about you? Do you dare to take this wave?
