Ethereum Breakout – From Crash to Bull Run, History Repeats?Ethereum / US DollarCOINBASE:ETHUSDTraderRahulPalHello Traders! Ethereum has once again confirmed a major breakout after years of consolidation. If we study its past cycles, we can see a repeated pattern: deep crashes, long consolidation, and then explosive rallies. The current setup looks no different. Cycle 1: 2017–2020 ETH crashed nearly 93%, shaking out weak hands. After 18 months of consolidation, it broke out strongly. Result → A massive 1760% bull run. Cycle 2: 2021–2023 ETH faced another 78% crash during the bear market. This time, consolidation lasted around 46 months. Breakout again led to a solid bull phase. Cycle 3: 2025 (Current) ETH has confirmed a weekly close above resistance – signaling breakout. Strong volume support adds conviction. Projection suggests a move toward $16,500+, about 318% potential upside. But remember: invalidation if ETH closes below $3,500–3,800. Why This Matters Ethereum doesn’t just move randomly – it moves in cycles. Each cycle has followed the same sequence: Crash → Consolidation → Breakout → Bull Run If history repeats, we may be witnessing the early stages of another explosive cycle. Rahul’s Tip Always respect both sides of the market. Big targets look exciting, but risk management is everything. Mark your invalidation levels, and never forget: every bull run starts with patience during consolidation.
