#加密货币市场整体趋势 Looking back at the crypto market over the years, I’ve witnessed countless ups and downs. Now I’m hearing that Ethereum might drop to $2,500 in the short term, yet could surge to $7,000–$9,000 by next January. Forecasts like this remind me of the frenzied bull run at the end of 2017, when Ethereum soared from a few hundred dollars to over $1,400.

History always repeats itself in amazing ways. After every major dip, someone predicts even lower bottoms, and after every surge, there are always calls for even higher tops. But those who have truly experienced several market cycles understand that the market is never as simple and straightforward as expected.

In the long run, I believe Ethereum’s fundamentals remain strong. Its position in decentralized applications and smart contracts is hard to shake. However, in the short term, the macroeconomic environment and regulatory uncertainties may continue to put pressure on the market.

For investors today, my advice is: stay patient and maintain a long-term mindset. Don’t be distracted by short-term volatility—focus on the long-term development of the project. At the same time, always remain vigilant, and don’t repeat the mistakes of those who went all-in and got burned during the 2018 crash.

After all, in this ever-changing market, the only constant is change itself. All we can do is keep learning and growing through each rise and fall, preparing ourselves for the next opportunity.
