Ethereum’s breach of descending channel may push altcoin’s recovery
Ethereum’s price in the cryptocurrency market has been seeing a broad bullish pattern formation. The second-largest coin has been repeatedly undergoing devaluation and has been treading close to its support at $165. With the breach of the bullish pattern, ETH might note a positive spike.
At press time, Ethereum was valued at $176.37 with a market cap of $19.12 billion.
