- Bernstein forecasts ETH at $15,000 by 2030, citing $5T tokenized assets growth and 3.4% staking yield potential via SharpLink's ETH accumulation strategy. - Ethereum ETFs outperformed Bitcoin ETFs in Q3 2025 inflows ($9B), while whale accumulation rebounded with 218,470 ETH rebuys post-selloff. - Technical indicators show bearish short-term momentum (RSI/MACD below neutral), but CoinPedia projects $5,600 if ETH holds above $3,670–$3,870 support. - SharpLink's $200M Layer 2 deployment and declining global

The outlook for Ethereum's price in 2025 has once again captured the interest of both analysts and major investors, with recent events hinting at a possible change in market trends. After the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) for September came in lower than anticipated,

managed to briefly surpass the $4,000 mark. Traders pointed to an 85% likelihood of two additional Federal Reserve rate reductions before the year concludes, based on an

FXStreet forecast

. This positive sentiment is reflected in broader institutional behavior, as Ethereum ETFs have, for the first time, seen greater quarterly inflows than

Bitcoin

ETFs, indicating a strategic shift toward the second-largest digital asset, according to

CoinPedia

Adding to the optimistic outlook, Bernstein analysts have begun coverage of Ethereum treasury company

SharpLink

(SBET), assigning a $24 price target—suggesting a 75% increase by 2026, as reported by

The Block

. The analysts emphasized SharpLink’s strategy of accumulating and staking

ETH

for the long term, which could yield a 3.4% annual compound growth rate over the next ten years. Bernstein also reaffirmed its long-term ETH price projections, estimating $15,000 by 2030 and $25,000 by 2035, fueled by the growth of Ethereum-backed tokenized assets to $5 trillion by 2035. These long-range forecasts differ from short-term technical predictions, such as the

CoinCodex forecast

that expects ETH to reach $4,295.43 by November 4, 2025, although the platform currently reports a bearish outlook and a Fear & Greed index of 34.

Institutional interest in Ethereum has been further strengthened by on-chain movements. Large investors, or "whales," have resumed accumulating, with wallets holding between 100 and 10,000 ETH purchasing 218,470 ETH in the last week after previously selling, according to CoinPedia. Additionally, XWIN Research Japan noted that Ethereum fund holdings doubled in 2025, reaching 6.8 million ETH by October, highlighting ongoing institutional trust, CoinPedia added. This pattern aligns with Ethereum ETFs drawing in $9 billion during the third quarter of 2025—the best quarter yet for this asset class, as CoinPedia reported.

From a technical perspective, Ethereum is currently testing important support and resistance points. CoinCodex has pinpointed support at $3,840.80 and resistance at $3,996.02, with a negative sentiment score based on 19 bearish indicators. Nevertheless, CoinPedia’s analysis suggests that if ETH remains above the $3,670–$3,870 support zone, it could rally to $5,600, representing nearly 40% upside before the year ends. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) are both below neutral, signaling short-term bearish momentum, according to FXStreet.

Despite these conflicting signals, Ethereum’s network continues to develop. SharpLink’s partnership with Consensys and its planned $200 million ETH investment on Ethereum’s Layer 2 network are expected to leverage staking and liquidity initiatives, as noted by The Block. Bernstein further pointed out that falling global interest rates could boost demand for Ethereum yields, reinforcing its status as a preferred institutional asset, The Block added.
