Ethereum at $10,000: the still potential bet of Tom Lee and Arthur Hayes
Wed, Oct 15, 2025 ▪ 5 min read
Ethereum could soon be experiencing its most decisive moment. In a cryptocurrency market that emits contradictory signals, two iconic figures maintain a prophecy: ETH will reach $10,000. As 2025 approaches, Tom Lee and Arthur Hayes cling to this prediction as if it were a milestone. Conviction, calculation, or deception? It's hard to know. The market is in full swing, cycles are shortening, but some believe that the king of smart contracts has not yet said its last word. At this point, every detail counts.
In brief
Ethereum aims for $10,000, according to Tom Lee and Arthur Hayes, despite market doubts.
The technical support at $3,800 remains a decisive pivot for a bullish recovery of ETH.
Network updates like Fusaka fuel hopes for a new structural rise in Ethereum.
Institutional accumulation and declining reserves on exchanges confirm an underlying dynamic.
Two prophets in the confusion: Tom Lee and Arthur Hayes stay the course
Even after a cryptocurrency crisis that swallowed more than 19 billion dollars in liquidations, Lee and Hayes refuse to revise their stance. Ethereum, they argue, is about to reach $10,000. And quickly.
In the Bankless podcast, Tom Lee stated that such a measure would not be an overreaction from the market:
Ethereum has been in a consolidation phase for about four years. It has just come out of that zone, so I don't think this is a moment of euphoria, but rather a phase where the market is looking for a new price level.
