Ethereum Price to Jump 171% – Grab It When It’s Undervalued, Says Expert

Story Highlights
  • Trumpโ€™s second term has sparked optimism in the crypto market, with Bitcoin hitting a new all-time high of $76,203.

  • Ethereum is also gaining traction, reaching $2,878 with increased ETF inflows and DeFi activity.

  • Analysts, including Dan Tapiero and Benjamin Cowen, predict significant gains for Ethereum.

Donald Trumpโ€™s second presidential victory has injected fresh energy into the cryptocurrency market, with Bitcoin leading the charge. The cryptocurrency spiked by 10%, setting a new all-time high of $76,203 as buying activity soared on renewed optimism. Investors are betting that Trumpโ€™s pro-crypto stance could shape favorable policies for digital assets.

His win has raised hopes for more crypto-friendly regulation, especially with potential changes in SEC leadership that might support the industryโ€™s growth.

While there is so much noise of BTC, Ethereum is making waves, too, climbing to $2,878 with its Spot ETF witnessing substantial inflows. The marketโ€™s buzzing with one big question: Could Ethereum be on the verge of an explosive rally of its own? Several factors, from rising DeFi activity to renewed investor optimism, are driving ETHโ€™s ascent, sparking predictions of a significant price surge ahead. 

Letโ€™s explore whatโ€™s fueling this rally and what might be next for Ethereum.

Dan Tapieroโ€™s Bold Prediction for Ethereum

Macro investor Dan Tapiero believes Ethereum (ETH) is massively undervalued and could skyrocket by 171% from its current value. Tapiero, CEO of 10T Holdings, shared with his 120,000 followers on X that Ethereumโ€™s decentralized finance (DeFi) potential may flourish under a pro-crypto administration led by incoming U.S. President Donald Trump. 

A key reason for Tapieroโ€™s bullish stance is Trumpโ€™s promise to replace SEC Chair Gary Gensler, who is often seen as hostile to crypto. Tapiero predicts Ethereum could not only surpass $4,000 but potentially reach over $8,000 within a year, citing its strong network effect and consistent usage as indicators of lasting growth.

Analysts Predict a Strong Year Ahead for Ethereum

Tapiero isnโ€™t alone in his positive outlook. Ethereumโ€™s recent bullish trend, holding above its 100-day moving average, has strengthened its position as a โ€œcore assetโ€ in the digital ecosystem. Well-known analyst Benjamin Cowen, who previously held a bearish view on Ethereum, is now reconsidering.

Cowen notes Ethereumโ€™s resilience and its ability to maintain key support levels against Bitcoin (ETH/BTC).

Cowen advises investors to monitor ETH/BTC closely, noting that if it stays above the 50-day simple moving average at around 0.039 BTC, it may confirm a bottom against Bitcoin. Currently trading at 0.03864 BTC (around $2,946), ETH has risen over 7% in the past day, supporting Tapieroโ€™s forecast for a promising year ahead.

As the market adjusts to Trumpโ€™s pro-crypto stance, Ethereum and Bitcoin could be on the brink of an exciting new chapter.
