Experts predict Ether might surge past $3,200 due to increased interest following Donald Trump’s re-election as U.S president.
On November 6, it was announced that Trump snagged another term as president. Since then, there’s been a positive flow into Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which basically means people are putting more money into the cryptocurrency. Specifically, on the days following the election, there was a net increase of $52.3 million and $79.7 million.
And experts think this trend may push Ether’s price up to $3,200 pretty soon. Here’s what they’re saying: if Ether breaks out of its current trading range (where a lot of investors have been buying it up), it could potentially start to rocket.
The expectation is that once Bitcoin’s caps off its market share (probably around 60%), more people could flock to Ether. As of November 8, Bitcoin made up 60.4% of the total cryptocurrency market.
A slew of analysts are bullish on what the future might hold for the crypto market after Trump’s re-election. Ryan Lee, the chief analyst at Bitget Research, even thinks Bitcoin might exceed $100,000 before the end of 2024.
Adding to the buzz, Bitcoin’s price hit an all-time high of over $76,400 on November 6, just after Trump was chosen as president for another term.
An analyst named Edward Wilson from Nansen, a blockchain analytics provider, suggested that Trump’s victory could speed up the launch of the first staked Ether ETF – which is a kind of fund that would maximize the benefits of Ether as an investment.
If that happens, Wilson says Ether will become a must-watch asset. To put it simply, ‘Ether is cool again.’
More Ether ETFs could push Ether’s price above its previous highest point of $4,800, which was reached nearly three years ago in November 2021.
On a final note, it’s worth mentioning that when Bitcoin’s price crossed the $50,000 mark, nearly 75% of new investment came through ETF inflows. That happened in February 2024, a month after spot Bitcoin ETFs first popped up in the U.S. So who knows where Ether could end up?
