Despite Ether's recent lackluster performance, at least one multinational bank estimates that by the end of 2026 the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap could hit an all-time high.
Ether was trading near a six-month low, just above $1,500 at time of publication, according to CoinGecko, as its overall share of the crypto market has declined two percentage points since January to 17%. (Meanwhile, Bitcoin is approaching 50% market dominance.)
