Analysts: Big Money Is Moving In！Ethereum Will Have A Stunning Year-End Rally

The price of Ethereum surged by 26% last week, driven in part by the U.S. passing the pivotal cryptocurrency legislation, the GENIUS Act, as well as a market shift toward investing in crypto tokens beyond Bitcoin.

According to cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez, large Ethereum investors have purchased over 500,000 ETH in the past two weeks. Some analysts believe this indicates strong confidence among major holders in Ethereum. Historically, such buying activity often precedes significant price movements or ecosystem developments.

Tom Lee, Chief Investment Officer of Fundstrat Capital and Chairman of Bitmine Immersion Technologies, further noted that Ethereum is now Wall Street's preferred blockchain infrastructure.

He added that tokenization initiatives by JPMorgan and Robinhood are both built on Ethereum, signaling a gradual integration of traditional finance with Ethereum. Currently, Ethereum holds over 60% of tokenized real-world assets, and Lee predicts this figure will continue to grow.

Lee also believes that if the market capitalization of stablecoins breaks the $2 trillion mark, as predicted by U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, Ethereum's usage could grow exponentially.

Lee cited research from Fundstrat's Head of Technical Strategy, Mark Newton, predicting that Ethereum's price could reach $4,000 by the end of July, implying a roughly 7% increase from its current price of $3,744.

He also stated that, based on current conditions and valuation models, Ethereum's price could reach $10,000 to $15,000 by the end of the year.

Data shows that since early July, Ethereum balances on exchanges have decreased by more than 317,000 ETH, reflecting strong confidence among holders. Analysts view such aggressive movements as a clear signal that the price will soon break through $4,000.

Cryptocurrency trader Michaël van de Poppe also posted on X, stating that Ethereum's rally will be astonishing. Most altcoins are still 50% to 80% below their highs from late last year, indicating significant upside potential. Ethereum, as one of the first to rebound and nearly return to its peak, still has substantial room for further growth.
