$ETH just quietly did something most people scrolled past.
Ethereum is trading around $2,484, up +1.57% (+$38.49) today — not a headline number, but the kind of steady green candle that builds before the loud ones.

While everyone's eyes are on BTC dominance swings, ETH creeping higher on decent volume is usually the tell that risk appetite is coming back into the market, not leaving it.

Bull case: Reclaim and hold above $2,500 could open the door toward the next resistance zone, dragging L2 and DeFi names up with it.

Base case: Range-bound chop between $2,400–$2,550 while the market waits for a bigger catalyst.

Bear case: Rejection here and ETH could slide back to retest lower support if BTC turns risk-off.

Nothing's confirmed yet — could go either way depending on how the next 24-48h close out.

Are you watching $2,500 as the level that decides ETH's next move, or is that too obvious a number for the market to respect?
