After trading sideways for weeks below the stubborn resistance at $250, the Ether (ETH) price finally saw some action early on Thursday (UTC).

Since then, the ETH/USD pair has climbed all the way north of $275, which also happens to be its highest in about five months.

Despite the steep surge, the weekly ETH chart still portrays a somewhat bearish picture. Assuming that the second-largest crypto (by market cap) manages to exceed the Feb high of $285, ETH still needs to make its way through the resistance at $360 to convincingly establish a bullish trend.

Whether or not it can pull that off depends a lot on the underlying factors that sparked this new mini-rally.

Shortly after the ETH price broke out from resistance at $250, BeInCrypto’s Martin Young posted a detailed report outlining the possible reasons that may have caused this upward momentum.

He brushes upon three possible factors that likely infused a sense of optimism among traders.

The foremost among these is the official confirmation that the arrival of the final ETH 2.0 public testnet is less than a couple of weeks away. This has raised some speculation that the mainnet launch could possibly happen by the end of 2020.

Prominent analysts also believe that compared to Bitcoin, Ethereum is still highly undervalued and is currently waiting for just the right chain of events to spark off the next major rally.

Unfortunately what began as a big bang soon turned into a whimper as the company struggled to attract sufficient big players since its launch in 2018. After slogging it out for a few years, Prime Capital is finally closing down.

As you’ll find out in this detailed report, Prime Factor Capital is not the first crypto-centric fund to close due to investor apathy. During 2019, almost 70 cryptocurrency-focused hedge funds closed their doors.
