Ethereum in the fast lane: Analysts expect spectacular breakout!
On June 10, 2025, Bitcoin reached new highs, surpassing the values from the bull run of 2021. In stark contrast, Ethereum has not yet reached a new all-time high and the price of Ether has fallen by over 27% in the last year. While Bitcoin has gained more than 50% in that time, Ethereum has only seen an increase of over 15% in the last month, while Bitcoin is up 5%. Ethereum's dominance in the market, on the other hand, is increasing while Bitcoin's dominance is decreasing. Analysts are expressing optimism and expect that Ethereum could soon experience a breakout similar to developments in 2017 that led to a massive price increase. They believe that Ethereum could reach a new all-time high and double its value in the near future. A new project called Solaxy was also introduced, which acts as a layer 2 solution for Solana. Over $46 million has already been invested in the $SOLX token, indicating a successful ICO, and analysts expect the price of $SOLX could quickly rise by more than 10-fold after launch, like Wall Street Online reported.
