Ethereum 2025 price forecast inputs now factor ESG-friendly narratives as Ethereum’s proof-of-stake uses 99% less energy. ESG-aligned funds may push ETH demand toward $4,700 valuations. Blockchain data revealed the tokens were purchased on Kraken before being promptly transferred to an external wallet address. The move adds weight to the narrative that large investors are capitalizing on current market dips to beef up their XRP holdings rather than exit. Technical upgrades like sharding, while promising, are complex and could experience delays. Ethereum's reliance on its massive dApp ecosystem also means any decline in activity could reflect negatively on price. Broader macroeconomic uncertainty or a prolonged crypto winter could suppress investor appetite and stall upward momentum. Fundstrat Global Advisors notes Ethereum 2025 price forecast strength if ETH 2.0 adoption accelerates. Base case envisions $4,800, with upside if NFT integration into mainstream apps grows.
