Ethereum ETH/USD is a platform powered by blockchain technology that has enabled smart contract functionality and has been the go-to network for the development of decentralized applications (dApps).
As such, Ethereum has essentially powered a large portion of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) and, as such, has seen a high level of growth.
Speculation surrounding ETH reaching a $20 trillion market capitalization as a catalyst for growth
We covered a report by Cathie Woods’s Ark Invest, which forecast that Ether (ETH) will meet or even exceed a $20 trillion market capitalization throughout the span of the next ten years, which would lead to a price surrounding $170,000 or $180,000 per ETH token.
This report predicted big things for other cryptocurrency tokens as well. Ark Invest is a tech-focused American asset management company that is based within the US with a total of $12.43 billion assets under management.
The report was published and shared on Twitter on January 26, 2022.
Furthermore, according to Ark, the smart contracts and decentralized applications which are built on Ethereum are “usurping traditional financial functions at the margin.”
In any case, this has created a lot of optimism regarding the value of the ETH token, and it will increase in value as a result.
