Ethereum (ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, has just formed a death cross on its hourly chart. A death cross occurs when a short-term moving average falls below a longer-term one, indicating potential downward momentum.
On the hourly chart, Ethereum’s 50-hour moving average crossed below the 200-hour moving average, forming the "death cross" pattern. While moving average crossovers on the daily or weekly charts tend to carry more weight, such signals on the hourly chart might depict short-term weakness.

The most recent death cross on the Ethereum hourly chart follows a major sell-off on the crypto market, which has resulted in $758 million in liquidations over the last 24 hours.

The last time ETH climbed this much in a single month was in July 2022, when it was recovering from the low of the crypto downturn triggered by high-profile implosions of Terra-Luna, Three Arrows Capital and Celsius.
As for what comes next, the ETH price is currently up against resistance near $4,000, where repeated attempts to break higher failed last year. The cryptocurrency market is also approaching a historically quiet period marked by a consolidation phase.
According to Glassnode, ETH's +1σ Active Realized Price band, now around $4,500, is a key upside threshold for the current surge. This level served as resistance in March 2024 and throughout the 2020-2021 cycle. Breakouts above it might indicate market euphoria and increased risk of structural instability.
