Ethereum's price is up 6% in the past 24 hours, rallying to $3,328 after major ETH owner Sharplink provided more details on plans to monetize its holdings.

The current price of ETH has increased by 12% in two weeks and by 6% in a month, after US data showed stable price growth in December, the overall cryptocurrency market has risen to $3.33 trillion.

With Ethereum's price only up 5% in the past year, Sharplink's discussion of how to use ETH productively is very positive for the coin, and could encourage more institutions and corporations to add reserves.

And with Ethereum still the largest layer-one network in crypto by a wide margin, long-term Ethereum price predictions are currently very bullish.

Ethereum Price Prediction: Sharplink Activates Multi-Billion ETH Strategy – How Long Until ETH Makes New All-Time High?

On the Degenz Live YouTube channel, Sharplink CEO Joseph Chalom detailed how the company deployed $170 million in ETH on its double-dual network, Linea, and how this deployment provides a template for activities near and far.

In other words, Chalom wants 2026 to be a “productivity year” for Ethereum Reserve, which could serve as a model for other organizations and institutions to scale up over time.

And if we look at the Ethereum price chart today, we can see that the rate is increasing significantly, and the coin may even be broken.

In particular, the price broke through the pennant it has been building since August, and the MACD (orange, blue) rose above 0 a week ago and turned positive for the first time in months.

It's a similar story for the Relative Strength Index (yellow), which tried to crack 70 once last week, and is likely to do the same soon.

While the seven days of January 12th saw $116 million in outflows, the gains in momentum come from the beginning of January when inflows into Ethereum funds reached a modest $56 million.

The past 24 hours have seen some significant ETH transfers, including one transfer that saw a whale take 16,624 ETH from Coinbase.

We've also seen some massive deposits on Ethereum's Beacon Chain, indicating increased stock activity that may have nothing to do with Sharplink's deployment of ETH reserves.

Regardless, the Ethereum price forecast is very encouraging, with ETH on course to top $4,000 in Q2 and break $5,000 in H2.

SUBBD may be the next Altcoin to 100x: How to buy early

While Ethereum is one of the safest cryptocurrencies you can invest in right now, many investors may want to switch to higher risk, higher reward cryptocurrencies.

This can include presale coins, which have the potential to collect strongly when they first list, sometimes exceeding the market average.

And of all the current presale tokens, one of the most exciting is SUBBD ($SUBBD), an Ethereum-based utility token that has raised over $1.4 million.

SUBBD's utility token is a synonym for an adult-oriented content creation platform that offers creative AI tools to help content creators be more productive.

This includes ideas tools, virtual adult performers, and tools for creating content including images and videos.

By using such tools, SUBBD aims to enable users to produce not only more content but also higher quality content.

At the same time, the use of the Ethereum blockchain allows for fair and transparent payments to creators, giving it an edge over legacy platforms.

This helps explain why SUBBD's pre-sale is doing so well and also why the platform has reached over 38,000 followers on X, the first sign of its future popularity.
