Ethereum price spikes to a 3-month high above $4,000
Traders set their targets at a new all-time high after ETH price rallied above $4,000 for the first time in 3 months.
Ethereum (ETH) returned to $4,000 for the first time since May on Sep. 3 as a solid week of gains culminated in a major price milestone.
Against month-to-date gains of $600, the pair reclaimed the historic level it had lost in the dramatic trend reversal that rocked the cryptocurrency market roughly three months ago.
In so doing, Ethereum broke out of its three-month trading zone, with $4,025 just $350 away from all-time highs.

In terms of weekly performance, Ethereum took third place out of the top ten cryptocurrencies by market cap, behind Solana (SOL) and Polkadot (DOT).
Bitcoin also capitalized on fresh strength of its own by rallying to a critical resistance at $51,000.

Broadly, however, opinions converged on the final months of 2021 mimicking the rush to the finish of 2013 and 2017.
“Regardless of when exactly it comes the next few months will probably be insane beyond what most of you can imagine, but also one day during all that mania the music will stop,” popular Twitter account Lark Davis summarized in a dedicated thread on the current crypto bull market.
