As 2025 draws to a close, Elizabeth Powell and Joseph Grassa provide a high-energy recap of a historically profitable year while laying out a bullish roadmap for 2026. Elizabeth reflects on her successful prediction of the April 8th bottom, noting that Ethereum (ETH) outperformed every major asset class in the following months. Looking forward, she identifies February 5th, 2026, as the official start of the next major “upcycle,” driven by favorable CPI data, anticipated Fed rate cuts, and the mainstreaming of tokenized businesses.
Predictions and Market Calls
Ethereum (ETH) 2026 Peak: Predicted that ETH will hit at least two new all-time highs in 2026, breaking past the current $4,963 record.
The February 5th Cycle: Identified February 5th as the launch point for the next major upcycle, with market movement expected to begin 14 days prior (late January).
End-of-Year Range: Forecasted that ETH will close 2025 between $2,900 and $3,200, as investors hold profitable positions to defer taxes into the 2026 fiscal year.
January Resurgence: Predicted a massive injection of volume on January 5th and 6th as retail and institutional traders return from the holiday break.
Technical Breakout Targets: Identified key resistance levels at $3,053, $3,254, and $3,477. Breaking $3,500 is the signal for the “next leg up.”
