Ethereum ends 2025 down 11% as ETH reclaims $3,000; RSI buy signal and $3,250 cap

Ethereum ended 2025 down 11%, slipping below $3,000 weeks after a new all-time high. The price has rebounded above $3,000, forming an ascending channel from $2,750; a break over $3,250 with above-average volume would invalidate the bearish setup. According to the analysis, 24-hour volume is about $15 billion and RSI has flashed a buy signal.
