Dev yatırım şirketi Bernstein’s latest report predicted significant growth in the cryptocurrency market. Analysts Gautam Chhugani and Mahika Sapra authored this report, forecasting rapid growth in the spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF markets, estimating the total market size to reach $450 billion. This prediction was based on detailed analyses of crypto price trends and highlighted an expected inflow of over $100 billion into crypto ETFs within the next 18-24 months.
Spot Ethereum ETF Approval
The report emphasized the potential impacts of a spot Ethereum ETF approval by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This approval would provide significant benefits not only for ETH but also for other tokens like Solana.
Classifying ETH as a commodity rather than a security resolves a long-standing debate in the crypto world and sets a precedent for other Blockchain tokens.
Bernstein described ETH gaining spot ETF status as a significant milestone. This development is seen as an important step in the evolution of Blockchain assets. Moving beyond token sales to provide broader accessibility through regulated investment products indicates the maturation of the cryptocurrency market.
Price Increase Predictions for BTC and ETH
Bernstein’s predicted price increases for Bitcoin and ETH align with these growth expectations. Bernstein set a year-end Bitcoin price target of $90,000 and forecasted a price cycle of $150,000 for 2025. Following the SEC’s approval of spot ETF applications, ETH experienced a notable 26% increase and has the potential for further growth once ETF trading begins.
Overall, Bernstein’s report highlighted the increasing mainstream acceptance of cryptocurrencies and their integration into traditional financial markets. The approval of crypto ETFs for leading assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum reflects both institutional and individual investors’ desire to access crypto assets through familiar investment vehicles.
