ETH $10K Predictions Resurface: Tom Lee & Arthur Hayes Stay Bullish
Despite recent volatility and less than three months left in 2025, leading analysts Tom Lee (BitMine) and Arthur Hayes (BitMEX Co-founder) remain confident that Ethereum (ETH) could still hit the $10,000 mark before year-end.
• 💬 Tom Lee: predicts ETH will close between $10K–$12K by December, arguing that ETH has been consolidating since 2021 and has only just broken out of its long-term range.
• 💬 Arthur Hayes: reiterated his ETH $10K target, citing strong fundamentals and institutional inflows through ETH ETFs.
However, historical data from CoinGlass shows that since 2016, ETH’s average Q4 gain has been only ~21.36%, which would put the year-end price closer to $5,000 if history repeats itself.
Analysts suggest the coming weeks will be critical:
• Institutional inflows into ETH-based funds remain strong.
• Staking adoption and Layer-2 scaling continue to drive network activity.
• Macro uncertainty and Fed rate expectations could still shape short-term momentum.
Whether ETH’s next move reaches $10K or stabilizes near $5K, the market clearly believes Ethereum’s long-term narrative remains intact.
