- ETH price according to VanEck will be US$ 22 thousand.
- Ethereum is approaching major financial networks.
- Global demands for decentralized systems.
In a recent market analysis, experts from StoneX Digital and VanEck, leading names in the cryptocurrency sector, projected a significant appreciation for Ether (ETH). The expectation is that the price of ETH could reach $12.000 to $22.000 by the end of this decade, in an optimistic scenario.
VanEck's Matthew Sigel points out that the Ethereum network could generate as much as $66 billion in annual free cash flow by 2030, a forecast that would boost the token's value to around $22.000.
StoneX’s David Kroger has a slightly more conservative view for the short term, expecting Ether to reach around $4.600 in the next 18 months. However, Kroger also sees significant upside potential, estimating that Ether could reach around $12.621. “The upside, however, is much higher — around $12.621 — especially considering some of the upcoming technology upgrades that Ethereum is working on,” Kroger commented during a StoneX event.
These projections are based on the value that the Ethereum network can generate for ETH holders through transaction fees, especially as the network processes an increasing share of global transactions.
Sigel noted that Ethereum processed approximately $4 trillion in settlement value last year, in addition to another $5 trillion in stablecoin transfers annually. “So that’s much larger than PayPal and it’s starting to approach networks like Visa,” Sigel added.
At the time of publication, the price of ETH was quoted at US$2.359,7 with an increase of 0,5% in the last 24 hours.
