Well-known market analyst Tom Lee from Fundstrat Capital recently outlined an ambitious price trajectory for Ethereum. According to his analysis, ETH could potentially trade within the $7,000–$9,000 range by early 2026, with an even more bullish longer-term target of $20,000.

The catalyst behind this forecast? Institutional adoption accelerating through on-chain asset tokenization. As traditional finance bridges onto blockchain infrastructure, Wall Street's migration of assets to decentralized networks could drive substantial demand. This shift represents more than just price speculation—it signals institutional confidence in Ethereum's role as the backbone for enterprise-grade tokenization solutions.

The phased timeline (near-term to medium-term positioning) suggests Lee sees realistic pathway steps rather than speculative jumps, making the thesis worth monitoring as we track institutional flows into the Ethereum ecosystem throughout 2025-2026.

Tom Lee is at it again, I've been hearing this number $20k for over a year lol Before 20k, just watch whether institutions really enter or not, talking about tokenization is really easy

Tom Lee is back to storytelling, this time about $20,000? Ha, wait until 2026. --- Institutional adoption, asset tokenization... sounds just like last year's rhetoric. So, what happened? --- From 7k to 20k, how bold of him. I bet he'll still be touting the same tune next year at this time. --- The so-called "realistic pathway"... honestly, it's still about betting on institutional flows. Can this thing really be reliable? --- Wall Street going on-chain? I keep feeling this is an eternal promise. --- Tokenization definitely has prospects, but just trusting Tom Lee's words? Wake up. --- Hmm, another analyst, another bull case. How many times have I seen this script? --- Monitoring in 2025-2026, so just keep sleeping and waiting. Anyway, it's almost here.

Tom Lee is starting to tell stories again, predicting 9,000 by 2026? He speaks casually, but it all depends on when the institutional investors really get on board.

Tom Lee has made another prediction, it sounds very official every time, but I still want to see if institutions will really get on board... --- Seven thousand to nine thousand? Sounds conservative, but tokenization does have potential. --- It's the same institutional adoption narrative again; whether it's true depends on the flow of funds. --- I just want to know if this wave can hold until 2026. It seems like every time they make a clear prediction, they end up being proven wrong haha. --- Hmm... Wall Street going on-chain is more about when it will truly land rather than price predictions. --- Optimistic is optimistic, but twenty thousand dollars? Come on, don't overdo it. --- The story of tokenization is well told, but the question is who will pay the bill. --- Will institutions really cooperate like this? I have my doubts. --- It looks like a rational analysis, but in the end, it's just gambling luck, anyway...
