Former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes believes Ethereum could reach $5,000 as early as 2025. His argument is simple: ETH is currently "the most hated asset," and historically, such assets tend to deliver the biggest rebounds when market sentiment shifts.
Hayes openly says heโd rather bet on ETH than on already โplayed outโ assets like BTC or Solana.
At the time of writing, ETH is priced around $2,600. To hit $5,000, it would need to grow by almost 90%. Is that a lot? Yes. Unrealistic? Wellโฆ
๐ Big Player Forecasts:
Standard Chartered: $4,000 in 2025, $7,500 by 2029. Their bet isnโt on โwhat if it moons,โ but on network utility. Banks are now learning about gas and rollups without fainting.
Bernstein: 51% of stablecoin volume runs on Ethereum. Demand is returning, network activity is rising. L2 solutions are multiplying, which means more gas is needed, which means more ETH is needed. Thatโs their whole thesis. Simple as that. 1 reply

At the same time, USDT (Tether) remains the most popular stablecoin in terms of volume and liquidity, but its transparency and reserve structure are often questioned. In Europe, its use is already being restricted, and such limitations may only increase in the future.
Where should you keep your stablecoins โ USDC or USDT?
USDC offers transparency, regular audits, compliance with US and EU laws, and support from major financial institutions.
USDT provides maximum liquidity and is a familiar tool for trading, but it comes with less transparency and growing regulatory risks.
Conclusion:
If you value stability, transparency, and long-term reliability, USDC is increasingly looking like the better choice, especially as the market and regulators demand more accountability.
For active trading and quick swaps on most exchanges, USDT remains a convenient tool, but the risks are increasing year by year. 1 reply
