Ethereum (ETH) Drops Below $2,000 After facing resistance at $2,130

Ethereum encountered a minor setback, witnessing a 3.83% decline in the past 24 hours, bringing its value to $1,980.

The decline in Ethereum’s value can be attributed to its recent struggle to surpass the $2,120 resistance level. Similar to Bitcoin, the digital asset experienced a corrective downturn, slipping below crucial support levels at $2,050 and $2,000. However, the bulls intervened, preventing further losses and establishing support around the $1,930 zone. As of now, Ethereum is
