VangAI estimate: +7% for “Yes”, confidence 90%
- Historically, Ethereum has reached prices above $2500, including a peak of $4,945.60 in August 2025.
- Ethereum's current price is $2,572.72, already exceeding the $2500 threshold.
- Analyst forecasts, such as those from Standard Chartered, suggest Ethereum will reach $7,500 by the end of 2026.
- Ethereum network upgrades, including the transition to Proof of Stake and reduced fees, contribute to price appreciation.
Betting that Ethereum won't reach $2500 is like expecting the sun not to rise after dawn.
