Amid the impending approval of the Ethereum investment vehicle, $725 billion asset manager Bernstein has predicted that ETH will reach $6,600 after the Spot ETF approval. Indeed, the ascension would represent a new all-time high mark for the asset, succeeding the $4,890 level it reached in 2021.
The firm’s research analysts, Guatam Chhugania and Mahika Sapra, projected a 75% surge for Ethereum following the approval. Moreover, they noted that the asset is expected to follow a similar path to that of Bitcoin. Following its Spot ETF approval in January, the asset reached an all-time high of $73,000 just three months later.

However, that changed drastically on Monday. Bloomberg analysts were the first to change their view when they increased approval odds from 25% to 75%. Thereafter, the SEC began to signal that approval was coming.
In anticipation of that Ethereum decision, $75 billion asset manager Bernstein has predicted ETh will reach a price of $6,600 following its Spot ETF approval. Indeed, the firm has recently said the asset will experience a “similar price action” to that of Bitcoin.
