đ Ethereum (ETH) Supply Crunch Incoming: Analysts Now Eye $10K Price Target
Ethereum's next bull run might come with a twistâa supply shock that could send prices stratospheric. Here's why traders are scrambling.
The squeeze play: With ETH staking locking up coins and institutional demand creeping up, available supply could soon hit a critical low. When that happens? Buckle up.
$10K or bust: Some analysts see this perfect storm pushing ETH past five digitsâassuming the network doesnât get bogged down by gas fees again (old habits die hard).
Wall Streetâs FOMO moment: Watch for the usual suspectsâhedge funds and crypto ETFsâto pile in late, as always, then pretend they invented decentralized finance.

Analyst Predicts ETH Price Soaring to $10,000
Speculating on the current price trajectory of Ethereum (ETH), market analyst and Founder of MJ Capital, Eric Jackson predicts that ETH price will be reaching $10,000, and its next leg up will catch everyone off guard.Â
Eric believes that the approval of ethereum ETFs are still not priced as it is awaiting the approval of Staking ETFs, which will further solidify ETHâs position in traditional finance markets. âThe real catalyst is still ahead: staking approval, expected before October,â Eric said, âOnce that hits, ETH becomes the first yield-bearing crypto ETF in U.S. history.âÂ
Most people think the ETH ETF approval is already priced in and itâs been a big bust vs. BTC (in terms of assets for $ETHA vs. $IBIT).
Itâs not.
Because the real catalyst is still ahead: staking approval, expected before October.
Once that hits, ETH becomes the firstâŚ
The staking Ethereum ETF will enable investors to earn passive yields and essentially increase the assetâs market demand. As ETH issuance has also turned negative in post-Merge timeline and existence of spot ETH ETF has increased its demand, it would likely lead to a structural supply crunch for the cryptocurrency.Â
âOur analysis suggests the ETH network is underpriced. It generates real revenue,â Eric Added, âAnd once ETH becomes a productive, staked asset within an ETF wrapper, Itâs no longer just digital oil, Itâs an institutional-grade yield product.â
ETH Supply Crunch Incoming?
Ethereumâs current market supply stands at 120.71 million, which has maintained a steady pace of supply-burn ratio after the implication of the Merge upgrade in September 2022. This balanced supply and increase in ETH demand are the key basis on what Eric predicts an incoming supply shock.Â
While unsure, the increasing attention on Ethereumâas an institutional grade assetâwould likely impact heavily on its market price. Predictions such as $10,000 per ETH may currently look ridiculous, but given the âsupply shockâ scenario, the target seems reasonable.
