• Mike Novogratz expects rising courses at Bitcoin and Ethereum
• ETH in the next few months may be more with a stronger performance than BTC
• Ethereum driven by increasing company demand
In a current interview with “CNBC” Mike Novogratz expressed a positive statement about the prospects for the cryptomarkt. He not only saw Bitcoin further on the update, but also believes in a strong performance from Ethereum, number two under the cryptocurrencies. ETH currently has a realistic opportunity to beat Bitcoin’s performance in the next three to six months, according to the founder and CEO of the crypto asset manager Galaxy Digital.

Strategic purchases by companies are fueling course rally at Ethereum
In the recent past, Ethereum has lagged behind Bitcoin significantly in price development. While the largest cryptocurrency has been able to mark several all -time highs since November 2024 -the last in mid -July at around $ 123,000 -the record of ETH from November 2021 remains a distance from around $ 4,890. But something is slowly happening out of performance perspective: While Bitcoin was able to rise by around 6.3 percent in the view of one month, the Ethereum course increased by around 47.21 percent in the same period. Although the Bitcoin has the 1 -year performance – with +93.63 percent vs. +33.59 percent – still clearly ahead, but gradually Ethereum seems to want to set off to change this (status of all data: August 04, 2025).
Mike Novogratz also supports this perspective with his optimistic statements. He justified his forecast on the expected Ethereum strength at “CNBC” with two central factors: the low range of ether and increasing demand. “There is not much ETH offer, so I think ETH probably has the chance to surpass Bitcoin in the next three to six months,” he told the US station.
Novogratz also referred to significant purchases by companies, which he did not name by name. Similar to the Bitcoin Hodler Strategy, these would accept capital daily and thus buy Ethereum for their balance sheet, the crypto expert said. Two large stock market-traded companies that would pursue such “treasury strategies” with Ethereum are already there that there will be a third one soon.
According to “Ainvest”, the two companies already listed on the stock exchange should be Sharplink Gaming and Bitmine Immersion, which together have built up crypto stocks of 927,583. According to the news page, the third company should be ether machines. According to its own statements, the company keeps more than 400,000 ETH and is currently planning a NASDAQ IPO via fusion with the Spac Dynamix Corporation.
According to Novogratz, Ethereum and Bitcoin should be that high for Ethereum and Bitcoin
For Novogratz, it is therefore becoming apparent that Ethereum will “knock” the 4,000 US dollar brand several times in the near future, which is currently a upper limit for the course. However, if Ether exceeds this round threshold, this would mark the beginning of a course outbreak and a new pricing phase.
At the same time, Novogratz also remains optimistic for Bitcoin: Here he called “CNBC” $ 150,000 as a “reasonable goal” for the course, provided that the current market narrative is. This is primarily characterized by the expectation of falling key interest rates – and subsequently increasing inflation rates – due to the continuing pressure of US President Donald Trump on the US Federal Reserve Fed. This scenario has a positive effect on the Bitcoin course, since it is considered digital gold and inflation protection due to the specified maximum number of coins. According to Novogratz, the upward trend in Bitcoin will only end if Trump made a turnaround and his demand for deeper interest.
