In early trading on January 22, 2026, Ethereum (ETH) slipped below the psychologically significant $3,000 threshold. Data from Binance shows the asset traded at 2,996.719971 USDT around 08:13 AM UTC.
Despite the intraday dip, ETH maintained a modest 24-hour increase of 0.90%, indicating a period of consolidation with weakened momentum. The breach of the $3,000 level may signal a test of near-term support, as the market evaluates broader sentiment and potential catalysts.
Traders are watching to see if ETH can reclaim and stabilize above $3,000 in the coming sessions, a level that has served as both support and resistance in recent trading. $BTC $ETH $BNB #BTC #MWAM_Crypto
