Funstrat co-founder Tom Lee says Ethereum could be the crypto market’s near-term leader, targeting a move to $12,000 by January on the back of Wall Street’s tokenization push and rising growth expectations for smart-contract platforms. In an interview released Nov. 10 with Tom Nash, Lee emphasized that while Bitcoin remains under-owned, “there’s a bigger move in Ethereum” over the next several weeks as capital reallocates toward the rails that power stablecoins and tokenized assets. Why Ethereum Is Poised To Rally Soon Lee anchored his call to a blend of technical and fundamental drivers. Citing Funstrat’s head of technical strategy, he…

Related Reading Despite the cautious sentiment, on-chain data reveals a contrasting story — large holders, or “whales,” are quietly accumulating ETH during the downturn.

Opinion by: Alon Muroch, founder of SSV LabsA green light for institutional staking alone will not signal a long-term future for Ethereum. As institutions enter the Web3 ecosystem, they need to recognize that ETH isn’t an asset that can be fit into existing TradFi molds; it’s the World Computer. Unless institutions can embrace Ethereum’s philosophy of decentralization, as well as its token, their core infrastructure and inherent proposition are doomed to fail. The dot-com bubble offers a cautionary tale for Ethereum adopters. It burst partly because institutions dove headfirst into the consumer internet’s lucrative market potential without sufficiently understanding the infrastructure…

Opinion by: Kamal Mokeddem, General Partner at Finality CapitalThe prevailing institutional narrative surrounding altcoins is as follows: If you want crypto exposure, simply buy Bitcoin and move on. Bitcoin now has ETFs and has outperformed nearly every other digital asset. Unlike 2017 or 2021, there has been no broad altcoin rally this cycle. At its peak in 2021, more than 2.6 million tokens were live; today, there are more than 42 million. No wonder many people believe the game is over. This perspective is lazy and wrong. The absence of an “altcoin season” doesn’t mean there is a lack of opportunity. It…
