Ethereum and the rest of the cryptocurrency market are struggling to maintain the momentum that has been backing their uptrends seen throughout the past few weeks. For ETH, $400 has become a crucial resistance level that it has been struggling to surmount for well over a week now. Each time it taps this level, it faces an influx of selling pressure that leads it lower. Despite flashing some signs of overt weakness, analysts are confident that ETH is well-positioned to see some further near-term upside. It remains unclear as to whether or not these bull-favoring factors will truly be enough to shatter $400. Ethereum Likely to Outperform Bitcoin in Near-Term Despite Consolidation PhaseAt the time of writing, Ethereum is trading down roughly 3% at its current price of $385. This is around the price at which it has been trading at for the past several hours. This does mark a notable decline from recent highs of $398 that were set yesterday evening. The rejection here also came about in tandem with one seen by Bitcoin at $12,000, which helped perpetuate this downside movement. While speaking about where ETH might trend next, one analyst explained that Ethereum is likely to outperform Bitcoin in the mid-term, which means that it may only be a matter of time before it breaks through $400.
