Ethereum’s Path Toward $10,000 Ethereum (ETH) is once again in the spotlight as analysts debate whether it could surge past $10,000 by the end of 2026. Current prices hover around $3,000, but optimism is fueled by upcoming protocol upgrades—Glamsterdam (H1 2026) and Hegota (late 2026)—which aim to improve scalability and efficiency. Institutional demand is also rising, with potential approval of staking in U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs seen as a major catalyst. Analysts at Token Metrics suggest ETH could realistically reach $5,000–$10,000 in this cycle, supported by a thriving DeFi ecosystem and strong fundamentals. Still, risks remain, including regulatory uncertainty and competition from other smart‑contract platforms.
