Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) is attracting significant attention, as traders anticipate a potential rally supported by seasonal trends and robust fundamentals.

What Happened: Trader MaxBecauseBTC on X highlighted that December through April, especially following a Bitcoin halving, is historically the best time to hold Ethereum.

He warned traders to remain vigilant, noting Ethereum's quick price moves often leave few opportunities to enter.

Crypto trader Ali Martinez predicts ETH to rebound to $3,560, while The Moon Show cautions that the altcoin must hold current levels to avoid a drop to $3,150.
