#数字货币市场回调 Ethereum's recent operations are quite something. On December 3rd, the Fusaka upgrade, with the core technology called PeerDAS—put simply, it allows validation nodes to bear significantly less bandwidth pressure, reducing it directly by 80%. Even more aggressive is the BPO fork, which allows a single Block to accommodate blob data increasing from 9 to 21, theoretically reducing layer 2 network transaction fees by another 40 to 60 percent.
The market reaction is quite genuine. The European asset management giant Amundi, which manages $2.75 trillion, recently launched an Ethereum tokenized fund; another institution with a scale of $6 trillion directly stated that this upgrade is a "turning point for the altcoin ecosystem". On-chain data also reveals some clues, as a giant whale recently made a single purchase of $13.6 million, acquiring over 3,300 ETH.
The timing is quite subtle. If we look back at historical data, we find that the probability of a significant market turning point in Ethereum in December is close to 80%, and now it just happens to be right at the bottom of the 3.5-year cycle. The technical analysts are drawing a 180-week time window there, calling it the "last entry opportunity"—this is just something to listen to, as the market has never lacked for "last opportunities."
As for the price targets, the numbers given by analysts range from 4650 to 5400 USD, and some banks have even called out 8000 USD for 2026. To be honest, these predictions seem more like adding fuel to the fire of sentiment. Technical upgrades can indeed enhance the fundamentals, but whether they can translate into price depends on the macro environment and market liquidity.
Is it the right time to enter the market now? It depends on whether you believe that the technical narrative can support the valuation.

Sounds good, but we need to be realistic. The Whale sweeping coins might also be the last Accumulation before dumping, I've seen this trick too many times.

It's another "last chance to get on board", and after listening for so many years, I've never really gotten it right once.

Wait, did a Whale just sweep 3300 coins in one go? Is this buying the dip or is there insider information?

Oh my, it's "the last chance to get on board" again, I've been hearing this for three years now.

I saw the Whale sweep 13.6 million dollars, but why is my account still empty?
---
PeerDAS cutting 80% bandwidth pressure? Sounds good, but to really lower transaction fees, we have to wait for the second layer explosion. Saying it can drop by 40 to 60% now is just playing people for suckers, right?
---
8000 dollars in 2026... Let me calculate, am I making a profit or getting Rekt then? I can't figure it out.
---
Amundi's tokenization fund sounds amazing, but when institutions get on board, it's often when retail investors should be Rug Pulling. We all understand this logic.
---
180-week time window? Can't wait, I just want to buy the dip now, anyway, it always ends up being the same and I lose.
---
Can tech upgrades support valuations? I choose not to believe it because history tells me every upgrade is a signal of falling prices.
---
3.5-year cycle bottom... last time you said the same thing, and then I caught a falling knife at the peak with three hundred E.
