Ethereum Set to Smash Skeptics—Hayes Predicts Unstoppable Rally

Arthur Hayes just threw gasoline on the crypto bull case—Ethereum’s primed to laugh at ’reasonable’ price targets. The ex-BitMEX CEO’s latest provocation cuts through the usual hedge fund hand-wringing like a hot knife through institutional FUD.

Forget sideways trading. Hayes sees ETH bypassing traditional market logic entirely—thanks to a perfect storm of deflationary burns, L2 adoption, and that sweet, sweet institutional desperation for yield. (Wall Street’s still trying to short it with one hand while buying the dip with the other.)

One question remains: Will the SEC try to ’protect’ us from these gains too?

In Brief

• Ethereum is close to a rebound thanks to its updates and institutional interest.
• The ETH/BTC ratio is rising, signaling a possible altcoin season favoring Ethereum in 2025.

Ethereum: A complex but favorable price dynamic

The ethereum price is currently oscillating between resistance and support, with mixed technical indicators.

• The daily RSI at 65 indicates fragile momentum.
• The MACD shows moderate bullish signals.

On the weekly scale, however, the momentum appears stronger. Indeed, the RSI is above 50. The MACD supports a positive trend.

The key levels to watch are therefore $2,605 and $2,921, with a psychological target at $3,000. In case of a correction, major supports exist at $2,323 and $1,873.

According to Arthur Hayes’ explanations, Ethereum currently stands asin terms of TVL and Proof of Stake security. He maintains that the current depreciation creates a rare investment opportunity, especially compared to Solana’s past outperformance.

Ethereum and Institutions: Accelerating Upgrades and Adoption

Thecontinues with the Pectra upgrade, which improves the scalability and stability of the crypto network. Preston Van Loon, lead developer, announces a faster pace of targeted forks.

With two annual forks, Ethereum aims for speed and stability. These are two key elements to attract institutional investors. The tokenization of real-world assets via the Ethereum blockchain is also expanding. That being said, the complexity of rollups and fragmentation remain challenges.

The ETH/BTC ratio, NEAR its historical lows, rebounded by 38% in May, signaling a possible altcoin season. Furthermore, thestrengthens institutional appetite, with selling pressure clearly weaker than on bitcoin.

In any case, Ethereum seems ready to play a major role in the 2025 cryptosphere. Its innovations and resilience could make it the essential platform versus its rivals. A true turning point for the crypto ecosystem!
