While recent price dips have slowed growth, institutional buying remains strong with BitMine accumulating over 190,000 ETH recently. Experts predict a potential surge toward $5,000, driven by robust DeFi applications and increasing institutional investment. Innovative altcoins like Ethena (ENA) and Remittix (RTX) are also seeing massive gains – ENA has seen its price rise 300% and RTX is attracting investors through real-world adoption and utility features. This article explores what to expect for Ethereum, examining key factors driving prices and predicting future performance.
