Ethereum has made a strong leap in its market value, entering the list of the top 25 global entities, surpassing giant companies like Netflix and Mastercard, with a market value of approximately $517 billion as of August 11, 2025.
The main reasons behind this rise:
Ethereum's price increased by 17% over the week.
Institutional capital inflows through Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs).
Some companies adopting Ethereum as part of their cash reserves, making it a strategic asset rather than just a speculative tool.
Notable statements:
Joseph Lubin, one of the co-founders of Ethereum, predicted that Ethereum would surpass Bitcoin in market value within a year.
To reach Bitcoin's current level, Ethereum's price must be around $20,000, which is possible if the expansion continues in areas like decentralized finance, asset tokenization, and stablecoins.
📌 Ethereum proves that it is no longer just a platform for smart contracts, but a global economic player competing with gold and giant companies.
