Vivek Raman stated that Ethereum is at a critical juncture in terms of adoption, similar to where Bitcoin was in the previous cycle.
According to Raman, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Resinvest, while the liquidity flowing into the system could push Bitcoin higher, Ethereum’s performance may be stronger.
In his assessment, Raman stated, “ETH is at the adoption breaking point that BTC was at in the last cycle. Bitcoin will perform well as liquidity enters the system. However, Ethereum will perform even better as it becomes the best blockchain for doing business and as ETH transforms into a productive treasury asset.” Raman also shared his target of $15,000 for Ethereum and $200,000 for Bitcoin by 2026.
These views also align with recent assessments from the institutional side. In a previously published report, Standard Chartered stated that Ethereum’s outlook has improved and that it has the potential to outperform Bitcoin. According to the bank, while Bitcoin’s weak performance is weighing on the overall market, the increasing institutional demand for Ethereum, along with its dominant position in stablecoins, real-world assets (RWA), and DeFi spaces, paints a stronger picture for ETH.
The report also stated that increased network capacity and potential regulatory clarity in the US could be additional upside catalysts for Ethereum. Standard Chartered had predicted a price of $7,500 for Ethereum this year and $30,000 for 2029.
