Santiment sees prerequisites for Ethereum growth

Researchers at the Santiment platform noted that, unlike Bitcoin, the discussion of Ethereum on social networks looks noticeably more restrained. In their opinion, this may indicate that the second-largest cryptocurrency by capitalization still has potential for further growth.
Experts recalled that in the case of Bitcoin, the situation was the opposite: it was at the price highs that interest and optimism in social networks reached their peak. This surge of "greed" coincided with the update of the historical record and the subsequent correction. In the case of Ethereum, such overheating has not yet been observed, which, according to analysts, plays into its hands.
An additional driver for Ethereum could be the growing interest in stablecoins in the United States. After the latest legislative changes, their use has expanded significantly, which has already caused increased attention to the Ethereum blockchain, Santiment noted.
Forecasts from major financial institutions also look positive. In particular, experts from the British bank Standard Chartered previously suggested that by the end of this year, the price of Ethereum could reach $7,500. A longer-term scenario, according to them, suggests possible growth to $28,000 by 2028.
Thus, the lack of excitement around Ethereum, the expansion of the use of stablecoins and support from institutional forecasts create conditions for Ethereum to strengthen in the medium and long term. Against the background of the fact that investors traditionally show greater interest in buying Bitcoin during corrections, it is the restrained perception of Ethereum in the information field that may turn out to be its advantage.
Together, these factors form the basis for further growth of Ethereum, and the current situation, according to analysts, only confirms its undervaluation in the eyes of the market.
