Ethereum (ETH) price as of January 3, 2026, is **$3,121.07**, with a 24-hour increase of 4.36%, showing a better performance than Bitcoin. The highest price on that day was $3,150.01, the lowest was $2,987.54, and the trading volume reached 11.36 billion USDT, with the price soaring along with increased trading activity.

On the technical side, ETH's 7-day, 25-day, and 99-day moving averages indicate a bullish alignment, and the price has broken through recent highs. However, the KDJ indicator has already entered the overbought zone (J value 92.77), suggesting short-term correction pressure. The current circulating market cap is approximately $359.554 billion, with a historical high of $495.459 billion.
Market forecasts suggest that ETH's price in 2026 will range between $5,000 and $11,000, with a low likelihood of reaching $30,000. Influencing factors include the transition to the Proof of Stake (PoS) model (reducing energy consumption by over 99%) and a circulating supply of about 120 million ETH.
