Bitcoin’s Highs and Ethereum’s Institutional Momentum

[Ayoze]

Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Chainlink are some of the most talked-about cryptocurrencies right now, and the market is still getting a lot of attention throughout the world and each asset provides a separate story about how the price has changed over time, how institutions have put money into it, and how strong network demand is changing the current landscape of digital finance.
A historic milestone was recently reached by Bitcoin, which briefly reached $124,000 before settling closer to the $117,000 area.
Although there is still a lot of excitement, analysts caution that Bitcoin might be approaching the seventh week of its surge, which is a stage that usually comes before dips in past halving cycles, Long-term attitude towards Bitcoin is still favorable, though, with many people considering any possible decline to be a normal part of its growth cycle.

 Notably, individuals such as Eric Trump have emphasized ETH as a "buy-the-dip" opportunity, contributing to its upward trend. The asset has increased by 62% and is now selling at almost $4,500. Even, some analysts predict that it will reach $5,000 in the upcoming quarter highlighting Ethereum as it develops it status as a significant institutional asset in addition to a network for decentralized apps. 
  Finally, these changes demonstrate the various ways in which the cryptocurrency industry is developing; Ethereum is being adopted by institutions, Bitcoin is still the most popular benchmark asset and the convergence of these patterns indicates that digital assets are firmly in the limelight as we move closer into 2025, regardless of whether the market is destined for a brief downturn or another run upward.

Aside from the institutional momentum. I think ETH got something going on as well which is ETH ETF staking that can generate yield, it will be such a big deal for investors with million dollars of money or more. Even 5% gain from the staking is already such an interesting proposition.
If that happens, I think even $7k is possible. However im not shilling here, just sharing my opinion. After all, anything could happen.

I think we can consider that ETF is already institution getting into the picture for ETH that's why in the last month or so, it has a lot of bullish momentum and even getting closer to their previous all time high.

Yeah, everything is possible, but obviously it's first barrier is $5k, and then maybe after it hits that number, then we can talk about $6k-$7k. Although from what I remember at the start of the bull run, there are a lot of pundits who says that $10k could be the all time high but it might be a big price to get right now.

That's right, but do you think it can hit $7k anytime soon?

The ETFs that have been applied both made their value even more worth it. And this is what the lurkers still don't realize and understand when they're only looking on the past and can't accept the fact that these two digital assets have already been making rounds globally in the financial setting. The financial institutions that are prepared for any emergence from the crypto market, they're just adopting it even if there's still a lot of doubts from their co-institutions because whoever gets the first one to hold as much as they can when the prices aren't so expensive yet. In the end, they're the ones that will be the winners of this market and will look at themselves that they're the genius that have believed into this fin-tech that's also considered one of the most valuable assets that we have.

Well, ETH has seen an upsurge in price driven by institutional demand. There's no denying that. But what goes around, comes around. At some point, the craze/hype will end, leading ETH back to "square one". So far, ETH hasn't reached a new ATH. It needs to get past $4.8k for the excitement to truly begin. I wouldn't get my hopes up just yet. As for Bitcoin, I would expect it to keep going to the moon during the remainder of the year. Many institutions and governments are adopting it as "digital Gold". And with the FED announcing rate cuts, alongside the USD's diminishing value, the bullish trend for Bitcoin will continue.

Not sure about ChainLink, though. It's a nice project with oracles, and cross-chain inteoperability, but the hype is all about "memes", NFTs, and smart contract blockchains. If ChainLink is getting a spot ETF, then it will be going somewhere. Suprisingly, it's the 11th largest crypto by market cap. Crypto markets are unpredictable, so anything can happen in the long run. I'd only buy and hodl both BTC and ETH because they're the largest coins on the market. Who knows how far will they go?
