Major cryptocurrency trader and analyst Michael van de Poppe based in Amsterdam believes that within the coming months, Ethereum is likely to unleash its full potential and <a href="https://twitter.com/CryptoMichNL/status/1754958089839604114">become “a market-mover.”</a> For this reason, the analyst admits, he has allocated his funds to the Ethereum ecosystem.
In a recent tweet, van de Poppe stated he believes Ethereum is ready to start heading for $3,500.
<blockquote>
 <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Ethereum?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Ethereum</a> is waking up and ready for its run to $3,500. <a href="https://t.co/ny0ou5txfz">pic.twitter.com/ny0ou5txfz</a>— Michaël van de Poppe (@CryptoMichNL) <a href="https://twitter.com/CryptoMichNL/status/1754954693971718268?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 6, 2024</a>

Since the week started, the second most popular cryptocurrency demonstrated a surge of more than 4.4%, which pushed the coin to the $2,384 price level. ETH was also seen there on Jan. 30 after massive growth of 6.64%. After today’s increase, however, Ethereum has made a pullback of 1.30%, now exchanging hands at $2,357.
This year, many in the cryptocurrency community expect ETH to hit $4,000 following the prediction of the Standard Chartered banking behemoth. The bank named May 23 as the date by which this prediction will be achieved since this is the date when the Securities and Exchange Commission regulator is likely to approve a spot Ethereum ETF filed for by a couple of major spot Bitcoin ETF issuers, including BlackRock.
<a href="https://u.today/doge-etf-sol-etf-may-potentially-emerge-by-2025-lark-davis-explains-how">Lark Davis elaborated</a> that, in light of a potential Ethereum ETF approval, financial institutions will begin accumulating massive amounts of ETH, withdrawing them from the market into cold storage.
