#Ethereum could rise to $12,000.#

Ethereum could reach $12,000 this year, according to a prediction from Dr. Sean Dawson, Head of Research at Derive. He believes that Ethereum's Pectra upgrade, President Trump's first-year support for cryptocurrencies, wider adoption, and increased ETF absorption will all contribute to the price surge. The Pectra upgrade is a major update to Ethereum this year, which will improve the network's efficiency and security, paving the way for wider applications. President Trump's positive stance on cryptocurrencies during his first year in office has provided a favorable policy environment for Ethereum's development. Additionally, Ethereum's application scope is expanding, with more and more businesses and individuals using the Ethereum network, which will drive demand for Ether. Finally, ETF absorption will also provide new investment channels for Ether, attracting more capital inflows. Taking all these factors into account, Dr. Dawson believes that Ether has the potential to reach a peak of $12,000 this year.
