Despite the drop, Ethereum (ETH) made a false breakout of the support level at $2,897. Until the rate is located above it, bulls have a chance to seize the iniative and try to restore the bullish trend.
However, if the daily candle fixes below the psychological mark of $3,000, there might be a sharp drop to $2,410 within the next weeks.
Ethereum is trading at $3,008 at press time.
