Ethereum's strategic return: Is “Digital Petroleum” going to 80 thousand dollars?
Ethereum investor Ryan Berckmans explained the radical strategy exchange of the network and the possible effects of this on ETH price: “20 thousand, 50 thousand, 80 thousand dollars are not far away.”
In the last month, Ethereum sat at the center of the agenda, registering an impressive rise of almost 50 %. However, it can be misleading to see this rise as an ordinary market movement. Ethereum investor and community figure Ryan Berckmans revealed Ethereum’s “internal great transformation ..
According to Berckmans, Ethereum has followed the Rollup-Central Road Map, which has been followed for years, neglected the development of Layer-1, the main layer of Layer-2 solutions. However, the price decreases in recent months, the names of the Ethereum ecosystem - including vitalik boder - woke up from sleep.
Berckmans: ik We have never thought that this would get so bad ”.
Berckmans summarizes the situation as follows:
“Prices were so worse that even the really wealthy and influential people in the heart of the community said,‘ We have never imagined it so bad ..
This awareness brought about a strategic restructuring within Ethereum. Ethereum is now in a multi-layered development process, not only with Layer-2 solutions, but also with the growth of the Layer-1 level.
This new strategy has created a fresh acceleration not only in technical terms, but also in the Ethereum ecosystem in terms of narrative power and leadership.
Can ETH be $ 80,000?
According to Ryan Berckmans, this transformation may be not only a recovery, but also the pioneer of a great value creation:
“In the coming years, the top -of -chain economies will be 1000 times larger than today. This can carry Ethereum to 20k, 50k, $ 80k.”
Berckmans bases this vision by Ethereum’s infrastructure of the global digital economy. Because in areas such as decentralized finance, digital identity, data property and artificial intelligence integration, Ethereum’s potential becomes increasingly more and more prominent.
This transformation of Ethereum from the inside is not only a technical decision, but also a market psychology move. ETH’s process of transforming into a real global infrastructure, which is known for the analogy of “digital oil”, is now at an early stage. However, the net vision of the leading figures and layered development strategy makes Ethereum one of the most exciting beings for the second half of 2025.
