Ethereum Price Predictions: What Are Experts Saying?
Short-Term Outlook (August–September 2025)
#CoinDCX anticipates that if Ethereum breaks above $4,800, it could rally toward $5,500–$6,000 by the end of August 2025. Conversely, a drop below $4,000 might push ETH toward $3,800.
CoinCodex projects a rise of approximately 10.85%, targeting $5,240 around September 11–12, 2025. For the next week, they estimate #ETH $ETH
could reach as high as $5,417.
By End of 2025
Standard Chartered, citing strong institutional activity and favorable regulatory developments, now forecasts ETH to reach $7,500 by the end of 2025 (up from $4,000 earlier). They explain this surge is driven by significant ETF inflows and the passage of the GENIUS Act, boosting stablecoin usage and Ethereum’s fee demand.
Tom Lee (Fundstrat) is even more bullish. He envisions ETH surpassing the $7,500 mark, potentially reaching $15,000 by December 2025, driven by massive corporate and #ETF accumulation and a potential U.S. Fed rate cut.
Yahoo Finance offers a broad range: a low outlook of $2,061, an average of $4,054, and a high of $6,000 for 2025.
Changelly forecasts:
August 2025: low of ~$4,652; high of ~$5,585; average around ~$5,118.
September 2025: highs near ~$5,154; lows around ~$3,199; average ~$4,177.
October–December 2025: expected range between ~$2,793 and ~$5,367, average ~$4,080 by year-end.
Long-Term Outlook (2028 and Beyond)
Standard Chartered also projects a long-term ETH price of $25,000 by 2028, underpinned by institutional adoption, layer-1 improvements, and expanded stablecoin use.
CoinCodex indicates a possible peak at $8,898 in 2025 and suggests ETH might hit $10,000 by February 2028, with $33,092 as an upper long-term limit (e.g., by 2050).
Additional Sentiment Signals
Cointelegraph, relayed via Santiment, notes that retail traders are skeptical even as ETH nears its previous all-time high near $4,868—historically, retail doubt can precede strong price moves.
A derivatives-based signal—specifically, net gamma exposure on ether options—suggests that dealers may be forced to support rising prices, potentially accelerating ETH toward $4,400.

What Does This Mean for You?
Short term, Ethereum appears to be in a strong bullish phase. If it breaks key resistance levels like $4,800, it could launch toward mid-$5,000s.
By year’s end, several major banks and analysts see #ETH in the $7,500–$15,000 range—though estimates vary widely.
Looking to 2028, long-term forecasts hint at big upside, with some pushing as high as $25,000–$33,000.
Important reminder: These are speculative forecasts rather than guarantees. Crypto markets are volatile and influenced by many factors—regulation, macroeconomic trends, network activity, sentiment.
