Ethereum $1,900 Retest Could Decide Next Major Move – Is ETH Preparing For New Lows?
As most of the crypto market retests crucial levels, Ethereum (ETH) is attempting to reclaim a major horizontal area. Some market observers have warned that cryptocurrency could fall to new lows if the price doesn’t bounce soon. Ethereum Weekly Close On Sight On Thursday, Ethereum dropped 1.4% to retest a key area for the second consecutive day. After hitting a 10-month low of $1,747, the King of Altcoins bounced more than 15% to trade between $2,000 and $2,150 over the past few days. However, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap failed to hold the crucial $2,000 horizontal barrier on Wednesday and tested the $1,900 mark for the first time in a week. As most of the crypto market retests crucial levels, Ethereum (ETH) is attempting to reclaim a major horizontal area. Some market observers have warned that cryptocurrency could fall to new lows if the price doesn’t bounce soon. After attempting to reclaim the key psychological level in the early hours of Thursday, Ethereum was rejected toward the recent lows, briefly falling below it. Analyst Ted Pillows highlighted the importance of ETH’s current zone, as it has previously triggered major moves. To him, if the altcoin fails to reclaim the $2,000 area in the coming days, a full retrace toward the recent lows should be expected soon. Similarly, market observer Crypto Busy noted that the cryptocurrency is currently trading above a major long-term support. According to the post, the recent correction has sent Ethereum toward a three-year rising support line, which “will decide the next big move.” The analyst warned that “If the trendline breaks with strong weekly closes below $1,900, the structure weakens.” Therefore, ETH must hold its current levels in the coming days to avoid a weekly close below this level. Otherwise, its price could drop “into the next liquidity pockets around $1,600 and possibly $1,300, where the next historical support zones exist.” Is ETH’s ‘Real’ Bull Market Two Years Away? A trader shared a potential macro-outlook for Ethereum that suggests the cryptocurrency could still see another major shakeout. My thesis is that the major bullish move that began around 2019–2020 has transitioned into a large and prolonged macro correction, and that Ethereum has been consolidating within this broader corrective structure ever since. He outlined four phases for the macro structure: the pump, the correction, the shakeout, and the moon. The initial phase, which occurred between 2019 and 2021, marked “the true impulsive bullish move,” with strong trend expansion and increasing momentum. According to the market observer, the strong rally that followed the 2022 bear market appears to be a “counter-trend move within a broader corrective range” rather than a renewed bull market and the start of a new long-term cycle. As he explained, ETH’s range-bound behavior signals distribution and consolidation instead of continuation. “From this perspective, the apparent bull market that developed within the correction can be interpreted as a dead cat bounce, a technically strong bounce occurring inside a larger corrective structure,” he affirmed. Therefore, the current macro structure would suggest that a final shakeout phase could “still be required to fully reset sentiment and liquidity before Ethereum can transition into a new impulsive bullish cycle. Based on this, the trader anticipated a final liquidity-driven move to the downside in the coming months, followed by “the moon” phase, potentially next year, when “the structure suggests the conditions for a true long-term bullish continuation, with price discovery and expansion well beyond previous highs.” #CPIWatch
$BTC continues to show resilience, holding around the $64K region despite short-term profit-taking and macro uncertainty. As long as buyers defend key support, the broader market structure remains constructive, reminding us that strong networks are built to withstand pressure not just perform during hype.
That mindset is exactly why Liberdus caught my attention.
Real blockchain innovation isn't about advertising the highest TPS it's about creating infrastructure that keeps performing as adoption grows.
Liberdus achieves this through dynamic sharding, allowing the network to scale with demand without compromising decentralization or efficiency. Instead of slowing down as more users join, the architecture is designed to expand alongside the ecosystem.
What also stands out is its community-driven model. Validator nodes help secure the network, while liquidity providers strengthen the ecosystem and earn rewards for their contributions.
Sustainable blockchains are built for the long game, and that's what makes Liberdus a project worth watching. $HFT #USInitialJoblessClaimsStayBelow200K
"Why should using Bitcoin in DeFi mean giving up native BTC?"
That question led me to explore Trustless Bitcoin Vaults (TBV) by @BabylonLabs_io
What impressed me most was the idea that I could use native Bitcoin as collateral without wrapping it, bridging it, or handing control to an intermediary. The focus stays on self-custody while opening the door to borrowing through Aave v4.
After learning how the public testnet works, I realised this is more than another DeFi product. It's a different way of thinking about Bitcoin's role in the on-chain economy.
I'm planning to spend more time testing the experience and sharing feedback because that's how stronger infrastructure gets built.
If you're curious about what native Bitcoin-backed borrowing looks like, the TBV public testnet is worth exploring.
Bitcoin has always been the most trusted digital asset, but using it in DeFi often meant giving up one of its biggest strengths: native ownership.
That's why Trustless Bitcoin Vaults (TBV) stands out. With TBV from @BabylonLabs_io native BTC can be used as collateral without wrapping, bridging, or relying on intermediaries.
You stay in control of your keys while unlocking new borrowing opportunities through Aave v4. For me, this is less about adding another DeFi product and more about showing how Bitcoin can participate in the on-chain economy without compromising its core principles.
The public testnet is already live, making it a great opportunity to experience native Bitcoin-backed borrowing firsthand and help improve the product by sharing feedback. # The future of Bitcoin utility starts with better infrastructure, and TBV is an exciting step in that direction. #baby $BABY
Someone asked me, "Why should I spend time testing something that's still on testnet?"
My answer was simple: because that's where real innovation begins.
I recently explored Trustless Bitcoin Vaults (TBV) by @BabylonLabs_io and it changed how I think about Bitcoin utility. Instead of just reading updates, I got to see how TBV works in practice and why community feedback matters before a wider launch.
The best products aren't built by developers alone. They're shaped by people who test them, ask questions, find issues, and share honest feedback.
If you're curious about where Bitcoin innovation is heading, don't just watch from the sidelines. Try the TBV public testnet yourself, explore the experience, and submit your feedback. Your input could help make it even better.
