In this article, we will attempt to forecast how Ethereum’s price may behave in the future. Please remember that due to the unpredictable and volatile nature of the cryptocurrency market, all crypto price predictions should be taken with a grain of salt.

What Is Ethereum?

The best way to become a better investor, capitalize on your initial investment, and increase your profit is to learn more about the asset you’re working with. While cryptocurrency prices — unlike those of traditional assets, such as stocks — are more speculative in nature and rely a lot less on their intrinsic value, they still depend in some ways on what the coin/token can and is supposed to be able to do. For example, cryptocurrencies like Polkadot may see a surge in price if their ability to provide blockchain interoperability suddenly becomes especially in demand. 

As a famous and popular cryptocurrency, Ethereum and its functionality aren’t exactly shrouded in mystery — most people have heard about its connection to smart contracts, NFTs, and DeFi. However, that’s not all there is to that coin since Ether has even more to offer.

Ethereum was launched back in 2015 and is famous for being a decentralized and open-source proof-of-stake blockchain with smart contracts functionality. Unlike Bitcoin, Ethereum has an uncapped supply.

One of the biggest challenges that Ethereum has to overcome in the near future is its ever-rising transaction fees — or, as they’re called for this particular network, gas fees. The more people use Ethereum, the higher those gas fees become, making the coin’s growing popularity a double-edged sword. More and more cryptocurrencies with similar functionalities but cheaper transaction costs and higher throughput, like Solana (SOL), continue to emerge. This problem has existed in the Ethereum network for quite some time, and many crypto enthusiasts hoped for an improvement with the cryptocurrency’s transition from the proof-of-work consensus mechanism to a new transaction verification algorithm. However, the transition to the proof-of-stake algorithm has not significantly affected the cost of commissions. 

At the end of the day, what sets ETH apart from other coins is the variety of this cryptocurrency’s functions. Ethereum has a ton of cool features and plans for the future — this is why this cryptocurrency is as popular among crypto investors as it is. ETH isn’t just a speculative asset; it has actual value.

Ethereum Functionality

One of Ethereum’s biggest strengths is its variety of use cases, and the list keeps on growing every year. As long as the coin’s team continues to develop the blockchain and introduce new innovative features, as well as actually implementing everything they’ve promised, Ethereum will likely continue to grow and prosper.

Smart Contracts

Smart contracts are self-executing orders that can be written directly into lines of code and are an essential part of the Ethereum network. They outline the agreement terms between the buyer and seller and enable trustless, anonymous transactions on the blockchain. Basically, smart contracts represent a set of rules that determines the way of executing a transaction.

This technology takes credit for making crypto transactions traceable, transparent, and irreversible.

NFT

Non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, are fully unique crypto tokens that have their own identification codes and metadata that allow them to be distinguishable from other similar tokens. As a result, NFTs of the same type cannot be traded 1-for-1 — they all have their own unique values.

NFTs have a bright future ahead of them: they are one of those cryptocurrency-related services that can be easily implemented in non-crypto fields, such as art, music, and so on. The success of NFTs is sure to attract new investors to ETH.

DApps

Decentralized applications, or dApps for short, are computer applications that run on various decentralized systems. The Ethereum blockchain is the most popular platform for dApp deployment. There are already hundreds of dApps on Ethereum, and they cover a wide range of services, from games to investment.

While dApps are rapidly gaining popularity, there are a lot of challenges that prevent them from becoming mainstream: for one, they are rather inaccessible to the general public. Although, in reality, they are easy to use, most people seem hesitant to try them out. As more businesses adopt dApps, making them the norm, the value and market capitalization of ETH are sure to go up — after all, all dApp actions cost a fee.

Blockchain in Retail: Fashion, Agriculture and Food Industry, Healthcare, Banking. 

DeFi

Decentralized finance, or DeFi, is a new blockchain-based financial technology that allows users to perform trustless transactions without the involvement of third parties, such as banks.

DeFi might very well be one of the most applicable and innovative use cases of blockchain technology: it allows people to take back control of their money by enabling decentralized, quick, and cheap money transfers.

The Merge (Formerly Ethereum 2.0)

Last year, the Ethereum blockchain, which powers most of the crypto industry, completed the long-promised and often-delayed “Merge,” a technical change in the way it functions. 

The launch of The Merge (previously named Ethereum 2.0) was probably one of the most anticipated events in the crypto industry. The change (almost) everyone was excited about was the switch from the proof-of-work consensus mechanism to the proof-of-stake one. This solution was intended to remove one of the biggest issues the general public has with crypto — how unsustainable it is. Additionally, ETH 2.0 was meant to help solve the scalability problem that the Ethereum network has been facing.

As of right now, Ethereum employs an algorithm that chooses a new block creator randomly. The candidate is picked from among those who have staked their Ether (the native coin of the Ethereum blockchain) in exchange for the opportunity to perform the work and get payment for it. One’s chances of being selected to build the new block increase with the amount of ether they stake. The entire purpose of a blockchain with a consensus mechanism is to avoid the need for centralized middlemen to validate transactions. Without true decentralization, one must question whether Ethereum’s other issues are worth it.

For instance, the Ethereum blockchain is renowned for congestion during peak hours, which appears as delayed processing times for transactions and variable transaction costs (also known as “gas fees”). The Merge has not altered how gas prices are computed or imposed, although during peak hours they can be prohibitive for consumers attempting to perform smaller transactions (in May 2022, the average daily gas fees reached nearly $200).

Ethereum’s First Hard Fork – Shanghai (Shapella) Upgrade

The Shanghai hard fork signifies Ethereum’s definitive shift from proof of work (PoW) to proof of stake (PoS), enabling users to unstake their ETH through EIP-4895. Besides this, Shanghai includes changes aimed at enhancing transaction efficiency and lowering gas fees for decentralized apps, specifically EIP-3651, EIP-3855, and EIP-3860.

Ethereum also received a substantial technological advancement in the form of the Capella upgrade, which coincided with the Shanghai upgrade. These two pivotal enhancements collectively formed what is now known in the crypto community as “Shapella,” a portmanteau of Shanghai and Capella. Starting from April 12, this upgrade allowed the withdrawal of around 18 million tokens, valued at $35 billion, that were locked in staking contracts. Instead of leading to anticipated selling pressure and a potential price crash, the upgrade saw the ETH price rally to $2,100, its highest in 11 months.

Ethereum Price Predictions for 2024 by Experts

Just like the majority of digital currencies in the crypto industry, ETH had a great time in 2023. Despite its bad start, the year proved to be a good one for cryptocurrencies: the Ethereum price, in particular, saw a 60% increase over the whole of 2023, reaching over $2,500.

With all the updates and the vast amount of projects relying on the Ethereum blockchain network, it is no surprise that ETH is one of the most popular cryptocurrencies among both regular investors and industry experts. Let’s see what Ethereum forecasts they can share with us.

Finder

Finder is a website that bases its price predictions on analysis from a panel of expert analysts. According to their panelists, Ethereum might cross over the $5.8K mark by 2025 and even reach $14K in 2030. Additionally, the majority of their analysts think that the current price of Ethereum is not overpriced.

Wallet Investor

Wallet Investor is bearish on the Ethereum cryptocurrency in 2024. They expect the ETH price to hit $1,900 by the end of 2024. Overall, they consider it to be a bad long-term investment. However, their Ethereum technical analysis shows that the digital currency’s price movement can still be bullish in the short term.

Gov Capital

Gov Capital’s Ethereum price prediction includes brief periods of growth followed by sell-offs, with the cycle repeating itself over and over again. 

That said, Gov Capital is still bullish on Ethereum in the long run. According to Gov Capital’s Ethereum price forecast for 2024, the coin might reach $3.5K by the end of the year, before rising to just under $5.2K by the end of 2025 and a little less than $8.3K by the end of 2026.

CryptoPredictions (TradingBeasts)

Experts from TradinigBeasts (which now posts crypto price predictions on a separate website) also conducted their own technical analysis of Ethereum and prepared their forecast of the ETH price for the next few years. According to it, the average price of the ETH coin will fluctuate around $2K this year.

DigitalCoinPrice

DigitalCoinPrice are rather positive in their Ethereum price prediction. According to their analysis of forecast data, the price of ETH is expected to overcome the level of $5.5K this year. They believe that the Ethereum price will keep going up throughout the year, potentially even reaching $9K in 2026.

Other Crypto Experts

In general, most experts have a positive outlook on Ethereum’s price. This coin’s functionality, established reputation, and steadily released updates instill a lot of faith in it — there’s hardly any other crypto project out there that has all these qualities. Even if the crypto market gets affected by strict regulation, Ethereum will still have the potential to remain relevant and a worthwhile investment.

What’s Next for Ethereum? Experts’ Long-Term Price Predictions

While there is a mix of conservative and optimistic predictions for Ethereum’s price in the short term, the overall sentiment tilts towards a cautious approach in the near future, reflecting the uncertainties and volatility typical of the crypto market. Experts like Anthony Sano and Credible Crypto propose highly bullish forecasts, suggesting Ethereum could soar to between $10,000 and $20,000 by 2024. However, others, including Rekt Capital and Michaël van de Poppe, offer more moderate predictions, ranging from $2,600 to $3,800.

In the mid to long term, the outlook appears more unanimously bullish. CoinPriceForecast indicates a gradual but steady increase from 2025 to 2030, with Ethereum’s price potentially rising from $2,097 to $5,100. This growth is further supported by the anticipated impact of Ethereum’s EIP-4844 upgrade or “Protodanksharding,” which experts like Raoul Pal believe could push Ethereum to new heights, possibly around $5,300.

Institutional adoption and improvements in network efficiency are also seen as key drivers for Ethereum’s growth. The potential approval of an Ethereum ETF and the increasing interest from major financial entities could provide a significant boost, positioning Ethereum favorably in the competition with other cryptocurrencies.
