Fast-forward to 2026, the bears are currently on track to repeat this feat. They need March to close in red for 2026 to catch up with the massive streak of losses that was logged in 2018

ETH price predictions

As reported by U.Today, Standard Chartered has predicted that the price of ETH could potentially reach $7,500
