DeFi protocol Derive’s Head of Research, Dr. Sean Dawson, has provided a bullish prediction for the Ethereum price. He predicted that the second-largest cryptocould rally to as high as $12,000 and explained how the Pectra upgrade could contribute to the parabolic rally.  Ethereum To Reach $12,000 Thanks To Pectra Upgrade And Other Factors


Dawson predictedthat Ethereum could reach $12,000 by the end of the year thanks to the Pectra upgrade, Donald Trump’s presidency, increased adoption, and a surge in ETF inflows. According to the research analyst, this bullish case is possible if the Pectra upgradeis successful. The upgrade is meant to help scale the network and boost user experience.  Related Reading 70 Million DOGE Make Their Way To Binance Amid 10% Dogecoin Price Crash 1 day ago


Given Donald Trump’s pro-cryptostance, Dawson is also confident that the US president-elect would create a regulatory-friendly environment, which would support further growth for Ethereum. For ETH to reach this $12,000 target, Dawson also said that Ethereum must witness broader adoption within the real-world assets (RWAs) industry. The network must also become a top player in emerging sectors such as DePIN and AI agents. 


The Ethereum exchange-traded funds(ETFs) also have a role to play in ETH reaching this target. Dawson mentioned that there must be more significant inflows into these funds. He warned that the failure of these funds to attract institutional interest could lead to a bearish case for Ethereum. 


For the bearish case, the research analyst predicted that Ethereum could drop to as low as $2,000 due to a lack of inflows into the Spot ETH ETFs. He noted that this could happen if these funds lose ground to a successful Solana ETF launch. This undoubtedly remains a possibility, considering how Solana dominated last year in terms of network activity. 


Dawson warned that other layer-1 networks are challenging Ethereum’s market share, although he added that this may offer higher risk and reward opportunities.  ETH Still Bullish Despite Recent Market Downtrend
