Citizens Bank Predicts Ethereum Could Reach $10,000 in Two Years

Citizens Bank has released a report predicting that Ethereum’s price could surge past $10,000 within the next two years. The bank attributes this growth to several factors, including growing institutional interest in DeFi and tokenization alongside Ethereum’s enduring dominance as the leading platform for smart contracts. The report highlights Ethereum’s active developer community, its scalability roadmap, and network effects that ensure high transaction speeds. 120 million ETH is currently circulating, with analysts forecasting fewer than 50 million may remain liquid by 2027 due to mechanisms such as staking, treasury absorption, and EIP-1559 fee burn.
