3 reasons why Ethereum’s ATH is closer than you think

Key Points

1. Ethereum has outperformed Bitcoin in Q3 with an 18.63% ROI, more than double Bitcoin's return over the same period.

2. Institutional demand for Ethereum is high, with ETF inflows at 725,000 ETH, 10x more than the net new ETH issuance of 73,202 ETH in the last 30 days.

3. Ethereum's volatility is being viewed as a buying opportunity by smart money, leading to a supply-side squeeze and reinforcing price upside.

4. Ethereum has rallied 40% since June 22, breaking through the $2,800 resistance and reclaiming levels by 15%, with institutional capital absorbing the volatility.

5. The structural setup suggests Ethereum's 40% gap to its all-time high may close quicker than expected, driven by accumulation-led rally and institutional inflows.
