Ethereum Price Soars to Rp54 Million on July 17, 2025: A Strong Bullish Momentum Emerges
Jakarta, Pintu News – Ethereum (ETH), the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, has officially broken through its long-term resistance level at $2,900, marking a significant bullish breakout. This milestone ends months of sideways accumulation between $2,200 and $2,900 and has sparked renewed optimism among investors and analysts alike.
Ethereum Price Hits Rp54.5 Million Amid Strong Gains
As of July 17, 2025, Ethereum is trading at approximately $3,350, equivalent to around Rp54,546,071, reflecting a 7.44% increase within the past 24 hours. During this period, ETH’s price fluctuated between a low of Rp50,618,967 and a high of Rp55,651,446. In the past week alone, Ethereum surged over 15%, notably outperforming Bitcoin’s 9% gain during the same timeframe. Market data from CoinMarketCap shows Ethereum’s market capitalization hovering around $404.43 billion, with daily trading volume jumping 25% to reach $47.3 billion.
Analysts Highlight Key Technical Breakout and Bullish Indicators
Crypto analyst Nilesh Rohilla emphasizes that Ethereum’s breakout above $2,900 is a pivotal technical event. He points out that ETH has surpassed its 50-week moving average—a classic indicator reinforcing bullish momentum.
“ETH’s weekly chart shows a strong 15%+ rally compared to Bitcoin’s 9% surge last week, signaling increased bullish enthusiasm,” Rohilla tweeted on July 16.
“Breaking out of the $2,200–$2,900 accumulation range and moving above the MA 50 suggests further upward potential.”
On the chart, Ethereum currently finds solid support near $2,650 and $2,900. Resistances lie ahead at $3,450, $3,700, and $4,100. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has also shattered its previous range, a technical sign that past rallies of 70% to 120% gains may be replicated.
Rohilla notes that Ethereum’s current price structure echoes prior rally patterns originating from accumulation zones. He further states that a decisive break above $4,100 could initiate a parabolic phase in Q4 2025. ### On-Chain Scarcity Boosts Ethereum’s Upward Pressure
Another contributor to ETH’s price surge is the growing scarcity of circulating supply on the blockchain. Over 35 million ETH are now staked, effectively removing a significant quantity of coins from active trading and exerting upward pressure on price.
The expansion of decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms and continuous staking reduce Ethereum’s liquid supply, enhancing its long-term value proposition. Additionally, initiatives like the GENIUS Act could foster Ethereum’s ecosystem development, even though they do not explicitly mention ETH.
Looking ahead, stablecoins potentially launched by PayPal and Circle under regulatory clarity could increase on-chain demand, benefiting Ethereum. More institutional players are expected to enter the market as regulatory frameworks become clearer.
Institutional Interest and Trading Dynamics
Trading data from TronWeekly and recent market activity reveal Ethereum currently trading near $3,108, reflecting a weekly gain close to 4.97%. BlackRock’s iShares ETH Trust holds over 2 million ETH tokens, accounting for about 1.65% of total supply. This follows a record single-day inflow of $386 million to the fund—its largest in 2025. Ethereum is now retesting the critical 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, a significant technical barrier. Analysts predict that surpassing key resistances at $3,220 and $3,470 could set sights on $4,000 and $3,500 targets. Breaking the $3,100 resistance might ignite a price leap of roughly 17%, reaching $3,600. However, the market has experienced notable volatility: within 24 hours on July 16, $136.5 million in ETH futures were liquidated, split between $82.63 million in long positions and $53.87 million in shorts.
Should bullish momentum falter, Ethereum may find strong support around $2,850 or potentially bounce back from the $2,500 level.
