CRYPTO PRICE PREDICTION FOR THE DAY

Ethereum (ETH)

After the gigantic bull run in Q1 & Q2,2021, the ETH price has depleted hard since the Q4 that is carried on until now. The prices are currently fighting to regain the levels above INR 1 Lakh which were lost recently due to a couple of external factors. However, a bullish boost is expected to uplift the price in the upcoming quarters of 2022.

The ETH price is expected to undergo a notable uptrend somewhere in August which could be continued until the end of the yearly trade. No doubt it is pretty tough to regain the levels close to its ATH, yet prices may maintain a consolidated ascending trend and regain the INR 1.5 lakh by the end of Q3. Further to end the 2022 yearly trade, the price is expected to surpass INR 2 lakh and consolidated above INR 1.9 lakh, if it gets rejected.
