Crypto: Ethereum Loses $2.8k Support As Charts Point To Possible 22% Downside

Ethereum slipped under $2,800 as charts and onchain data suggested downside risk remains elevated, with a potential move toward $2,100.

Ether (ETH) could see another sharp drop after losing the support level at $2,800, with technical charts and onchain data suggesting the downtrend will continue.

Ether’s descending and symmetrical triangle setups converge at $2,100.

Ether is at levels that have previously preceded deeper price corrections, based on onchain data.

The ETH/USD pair has dropped by over 10% in the last three days, dipping below the key support at $2,800.

Ether has not traded below this level since Dec. 3, 2025, and losing it suggests lower ETH price levels could be in the cards.

ETH was trading around $2,700 at the time of writing, a "do or die level for bulls,” said Metacryptox, adding:

The $2,800 level coincides with the horizontal line of a descending triangle, which was breached on Thursday.

The next major support is $2,500, which coincides with the 200-week simple moving average (SMA), as shown in the chart below.
