    Ethereum Price Retests Crucial Support Level As Traders Fear Signal Potential Rebound Amid High Demand 

    Story Highlights
    • The ETH/USD pair must rebound from the support level above $3.7k to invalidate further selloff.

    • Santiment noted that capitalizing on traders' fear may prove profitable soon.

    • The Ether futures have continued to outshine Bitcoin futures in the past few months amid an anticipated altseason

    Ethereum (ETH) price has fallen to retest a crucial support level of above $3,700. The large-cap altcoin, with a fully diluted valuation of approximately $453 billion, dropped 5% over the past 24 hours to trade at around $3,754 on Thursday during the mid-North American session.

    The ETH price drop coincided with Bitcoin (BTC), which retraced 4% to hover about $107.5k at press time. Following the sudden ETH price drop today, more than $218 million was liquidated from the Ethereum leveraged market, with the majority involving long traders.
