- CryptoQuant reports Ethereum could surpass $5,000 based on current market dynamics.
- ETH ETF inflows hit $1.2 billion last week, setting a new record.
- Daily transactions on Ethereum network increased to 6.5-7.5 million from 5 million last year.
- Ethereum currently trades at $3,884, up 19% over 30 days.
- Previous all-time high remains at $4,878 from 2021.
Institutional investors are driving Ethereum toward potential record highs, with market intelligence firm CryptoQuant projecting prices above $5,000 amid unprecedented ETF inflows and increased network activity.
Record-Breaking ETF Demand
The newly launched Ethereum ETFs demonstrated exceptional market appetite, attracting $1.2 billion in fresh capital last week. This surge in institutional investment marks the highest weekly inflow since the spot ETH funds began trading in the U.S.
Network metrics support this bullish outlook. The Ethereum blockchain now processes between 6.5 and 7.5 million daily transactions, representing a significant increase from the 5 million average recorded in 2023. "Higher network activity on Ethereum signifies increased usage and demand for the network’s capabilities, reflecting growing adoption of decentralized applications," CryptoQuant stated in its Thursday report.
Network Growth and Applications
The Ethereum network serves as the foundation for:
- Decentralized exchanges (platforms for trading digital assets without intermediaries)
- Meme coins (community-driven cryptocurrencies)
- Stablecoins (cryptocurrencies pegged to traditional assets)
Current market data shows ETH trading at $3,884, recording a nearly 19% increase over the past 30 days according to CoinGecko. While the asset recently topped the $4,000 mark for the first time since March, it has yet to challenge its previous record of $4,878 set in 2021.
Unlike Bitcoin, which has set new all-time highs following its ETF approval, ethereum’s price movement has been more measured. However, CryptoQuant’s analysis suggests this could change, citing "renewed investor demand" and favorable supply-demand dynamics as primary catalysts for potential price appreciation.
