A prominent crypto investor's hedge fund has accumulated $97.6 million in Ethereum holdings, signaling institutional confidence in the asset. The fund manager projects ETH could reach $7,000 during the first quarter of 2026, a forecast that reflects aggressive bullish sentiment on the second-largest cryptocurrency. Such substantial institutional positioning alongside ambitious price targets raises questions about whether current market expectations adequately reflect the potential upside many analysts are pricing in. The convergence of major capital inflows and bold predictions underscores the ongoing debate about Ethereum's medium-term trajectory.

Once again with this old rhetoric... Investing 970 million and suddenly talking about $7,000?

97.6M entered, $7000 target... Is this guy trying to gamble or really optimistic? --- Institutions are pouring money in like crazy, retail investors are still debating whether to buy the dip, hilarious --- Not gonna lie, this price prediction is a bit outrageous, but big capital bets do reveal some things --- Here we go again, a large position starts hyping expectations, old trick --- Wait, $97 million... how many ETH would that be at current prices? --- Institutional confidence? To me, it looks more like a gambler's mentality --- Oh my, $7000 in Q1... Is this guy sober or has he been drinking something? --- When big capital topics come up, retail investors' attention is pulled back, this move is pretty good --- The numbers look impressive, but can it really reach $7000... that’s a bit far-fetched --- It's already the first quarter of 2026 and you're just talking about this, why didn't you do it earlier?
