Ethereum: Should Investors Expect a Breakout?

ETH is displaying robust strength and is potentially on the verge of a significant breakout.
This is evidenced by the fact that 1.41 million addresses purchased 6.48 million ETH while reclaiming a vital support level between $1,700 and $1,780.
This milestone has paved the way for further upside potential, as there is currently no considerable resistance ahead.
According to crypto trading analyst Ali Martinez, ETH is poised to break out as a result.
