Cryptocurrency market trends are largely influenced by major coins such as
Ethereum (ETH) and Bitcoin (BTC). Recently, substantial investment activities have been observed in the ETH market. BitMine, as a substantial contributor, purchased the dip, securing ownership of over 4 million ETH, while ETHZilla sold $74.5 million in ETH to pare down liabilities.
Furthermore, previous years witnessed options in Bitcoin and Ether amounting up to $27 billion set for year-end adjustment, while Ethereum’s ‘Hegota’ upgrade, scheduled for late 2026, is expected to accelerate the development roadmap. Amid these trends, renowned analyst Tom Lee predicted Ethereum prices to reach between $7k-$9k by 2026, due to BitMine staking $1B ETH in just 2 days.
Several volatility spikes have hinted at Ethereum potentially reaching $3,900 in December 2025, with the coin holding steady while Bitcoin targets a comeback at $90,000. Ethereum continues to gain market share even as Bitcoin dominates, but the road ahead, according to Charles Hoskinson, might be challenging. Despite the struggle, one expert predicts a 38% price rally ahead for Ethereum.
On the other hand, while Ethereum plans to scale up in 2026 with the Glamsterdam upgrade, some analysts believe a new all-time high is unlikely in 2026. Despite this, Bitmine continues staking in Ethereum with a $219 million deposit, implying a continued bullish perspective on Ethereum's potential.
