• Standard Chartered massively raises Ethereum forecasts
• Reasons: strong institutional demand, regulatory progress, technical timetable
• Stablecoin market share and Layer 1 plans are considered additional growth drivers for ETH
Analysts of the Financial Group Standard Chartered had previously caught forecasts for the development of the second largest cryptocurrency Ethereum. While the Bitcoin industry leader in 2025, for example, always marked new all -time high stalls, ETH’s record high had existed since 2021 – the careful price forecast was justified. But in the summer of 2025 Ethereum also made it from a lethargy – investors saw new courses for the first time in years. Now Bullenmood prevails among the market experts: they have raised their forecasts for the price development of Ethereum-based cryptocurrency.

Already new all -time high stalls in 2025?
In her assessment, it should not be over this year with the record rally. In 2025, the analysts now expect $ 7,500 for an ether coin, so far the experts have only forecast $ 4,000. According to Bank Fxstreet, the reasons for this strong bullish correction cited strong institutional purchases, regulatory progress and an improved technical timetable.
Mega course goals for the coming years
And even in the coming years, the Ethereum rally will continue to continue, the standard chartered analysts under the direction of Geoffrey Kendrick, which is responsible for the Digital Assets Research area of the financial center, will be convinced. His price target for 2026 raised the team of analysts from $ 5,000 to $ 12,000, a year later, they trust the cryptocurrency to $ 18,000 after their previous forecast was 5,000 $ 6,000. ETH could then be worth up to $ 25,000 in 2028-so far it had assumed a value of $ 7,500.
“A lot has changed since our last ETH forecast in March,” said Kendrick Fxstreet. “We increase our course forecasts because the environment for ETH has improved significantly in recent months.”
Numerous positive influencing factors for Ethereum
One of the reasons for the significantly increased optimism on the side of the analysts is the buying mood for Ethereum-Treasury companies such as Bitmine Immersion and Sharplink Gaming, which rose significantly in 2025.
The cryptocurrency market also receives a tailwind from the US policy, the banking giant names the adoption of Genius Act, which is based on the stable coin by US President Trump in July as an important driver for the market. Although Ethereum is not a stable coin, in her view, cryptocurrency benefits from the fact that stable coins are responsible for 40 percent of all blockchain fees. This can promote both direct and indirect sales growth of Ethereum, since Ethereum makes up over 51 percent of the global stable coin market, Kendrick is cited.
And the analysts also see the increased participation of the Ethereum Foundation and important stakeholders as well as the plans to increase throughput in layer 1 of the top altcoin as a “strongly positive sign”.
