Ethereum institutional buying heats up, can it break through $12,000 by the end of the year?

【Crypto World】The market sentiment around Ethereum’s digital asset treasury has recently warmed significantly. A major Ethereum holding institution currently controls about 75% of the DAT scale, becoming the backbone of this wave of market activity. They have been continuously expanding their Ethereum reserves, aiming to eventually reach 5% of the total Ethereum supply — at current price levels, this investment could exceed $20 billion.

More interestingly, this institution has already achieved stable income by staking 4.2 million Ethereum, and recently announced a $200 million strategic investment plan. Analysts see a similar pattern — just like the breakthrough of Bitcoin institutions in the past, Ethereum is now experiencing large-scale institutional capital inflows. Based on this trend, many market participants predict Ethereum could surge to $12,000 before the end of the year. The signals from the entire market are clear: big funds are positioning, institutions are recognizing, and this could be a key period for Ethereum’s transition from retail to institutional markets.
