Current Situation and Market Dynamics

Against the backdrop of a general decline in the cryptocurrency market, ETH is trading at around $4,100–4,200, reflecting some uncertainty and decreased interest from investors.

Last week, Ethereum reached a local maximum of about $4,776 but then pulled back down.

Analysts are paying attention to the important support level at $4,100–4,200. If it holds, a rebound to $5,000 is possible, but a breakdown could lead to a retest of $4,000.

Forecasts and Institutional Perspective

Standard Chartered has raised its forecast for ETH to $7,500 by the end of 2025, with a long-term forecast of $25,000 by the end of 2028. Reasons: growth in the use of the stablecoin ecosystem, the utility setting of Ethereum, and institutional demand.

Fundstrat / Tom Lee predicts that ETF funds and new legal initiatives (such as the Genius Act) could drive the price of ETH to $10,000 by the end of 2025. Strategies include buying and staking up to 5% of the Ethereum supply.

Ethereum-holding companies (value companies) are actively expanding their positions. For example, ETHZilla holds about $350 million in ETH, and BitMine holds more than $1 billion — now using ETH as a treasury asset.
