Hundreds of crypto startups raised tons of money by issuing their own tokens on the Ethereum network (ERC-20 tokens). However, the bubble ended up popping the following year
Fast-forward to 2026, the bears are currently on track to repeat this feat. They need March to close in red for 2026 to catch up with the massive streak of losses that was logged in 2018
This time, ETH is under severe pressure due to a combination of various other reasons, such as massive whale distribution, intense derivatives selling, macroeconomic uncertainty, L2 cannibalization as well as spot ETF outflows
ETH price predictions
As reported by U.Today, Standard Chartered has predicted that the price of ETH could potentially reach $7,500
The bullish forecast is based on the network’s dominance in stablecoins, decentralized finance (DeFi), and tokenization
Meanwhile, VanEck believes that ETHA could reach $10,000 due to Pecta and Glamsterdam unlocking 100,000 transactions per second
For now, however, ETH is trading only slightly above its 2018 peak
