DonAlt Bets Big on Ethereum, Plans to Sell at $3K

Prominent crypto trader DonAlt has revealed his Ethereum long position, which he opened on August 13, 2026, at a price of around $1,900. He acknowledges that this entry point was not ideal due to market resistance.

In an interview, DonAlt explained that his decision to enter the market despite it being non-ideal was influenced by the psychological discomfort of sitting out entirely and the tension between technical analysis discipline and real-world challenges.

DonAlt has set three price targets for his Ethereum position: a practical profit-taking level at $3,000, where he plans to sell; a formal target of $4,000; and an ambitious macro target of $10,000, representing his long-term bull case.

He intends to take profits at the $3,000 level, which would represent a 57% gain from his entry point. DonAlt cited past experience with missed targets as the primary reason for this conservative approach, referencing his XRP trade during the 2024-2025 bull run, where he had set a maximum target that was never reached.
