Final Take
Most analyst forecasts for 2026 place ETH far short of $10,000—typically topping out between $5,000 and $7,000, with a few reaching $8,000–$10,000 on the far optimistic end.
The consensus: $10,000 in 2026 is very unlikely, but $10k+ in 2027 or beyond might be plausible if bullish conditions prevail (e.g., strong institutional inflows, successful upgrades, and robust macro demand).
