Bitcoin Targets $102K Amid ETF Inflows, While Ethereum Eyes $2,800 on Pectra Upgrade Hope

-

Bitcoin (BTC) is trading within a projected range of $85,000–$102,000, with ETF inflows playing a critical role in its near-term trajectory.

Strong inflow data this week could push BTC above $100,000, potentially testing $102,000.

Meanwhile, historical halving cycles suggest price consolidation between $95,000 and $100,000, positioning March as a buildup phase ahead of more pronounced movements in mid-2025.

Key levels to watch include $91,000 as support and $100,000 as psychological resistance, with a potential drop below $85,000 quickly testing $80,000 if bearish sentiment dominates.

Ethereum (ETH) remains within a $2,300–$2,800 range, with upside potential linked to the Pectra upgrade, expected in Q1 2025.

If testnet progress or deployment timelines improve, ETH could rally toward $3,800 or even $4,000.

Additionally, BTC’s performance will significantly impact ETH’s movement—if BTC breaks $100,000, ETH could rise to $2,600–$2,800, while a BTC decline to $85,000 might drag ETH to $2,200.

With an RSI of 27.94, ETH is currently oversold, suggesting a potential bounce if buying momentum resumes.

However, a failure to hold above its 25-day SMA ($2,590) could lead to further downside before a meaningful recovery.
