Spot Ethereum ETFs have seen record inflows, with nearly $720 million on July 16, boosting investor confidence. Corporate treasury purchases, such as SharpLink Gaming’s $49M ETH acquisition, and a deflationary supply dynamic from the Merge and EIP-1559 upgrades further support the uptrend. However, volatility persists due to whale activity, like Trend Research’s $218M ETH sale, and technical indicators suggest resistance at $3,300-$3,500. While short-term corrections are possible, Ethereum’s dominance in DeFi, NFTs, and Layer-2 solutions, alongside potential ETF approvals, positions it for potential growth, with some analysts forecasting prices between $5,000-$7,000 by 2026, though regulatory uncertainties and market sentiment remain key risks.
