1. Ethereum is trading close to $2,800 in June 2025, with increases driven by institutional flows —including ETFs and large purchases like those from BlackRock— and recent technical strength.

2. The current consolidation near $2,500–$2,800 reflects a steady participation from traditional investors, with weekly net inflows into ETFs of up to $296 million and a total exceeding $1.5 billion.

3. Technical analysis curves point to breakouts near $3,000–$3,200 in August, with a possible extension up to $3,300–$3,400 by the end of the year if optimism continues.

4. Macro-financial projections see targets of $4,000–$5,000 by December, with entities like Standard Chartered setting conservative goals at $4,000 and others —like Forbs or Investing Haven— placing them between $4,905 and $5,925.

5. Staking and the scarcity of liquid supply continue as catalysts: the volume of ETH in staking recently increased by 30%, reducing effective circulation.

6. Risks to consider include the capacity of staking ETFs (currently limited by the SEC), regulatory changes in the U.S., and sensitive technical corrections.

7. Conclusion: if institutional adoption persists and economic drivers are maintained, Ethereum could close 2025 between $3,500 and $5,000, with a possible optimistic peak above $5,900.
