【BitPush】Financial giants are accelerating the promotion of asset tokenization and on-chain transaction settlement. This wave could significantly boost the value of Ethereum. According to industry analysts, by early 2026, Ethereum’s price is expected to fluctuate between $7,000 and $9,000.
Why are such expectations held? The key lies in Ethereum’s evolution from a simple crypto asset to a financial infrastructure. Traditional financial institutions like Robinhood and BlackRock are actively exploring how to tokenize securities and settle them on-chain. This not only can significantly improve trading efficiency but also reduce costs.
Once this model matures and is widely adopted, the practical value of Ethereum as the underlying network for these transactions will greatly increase. In other words, Ethereum will no longer just be an investment asset but a true financial infrastructure—similar to how the internet is for e-commerce.
More aggressive predictions suggest that, as this trend continues, Ethereum’s price could long-term even reach $20,000. Although this goal is still far away, considering the development potential of asset tokenization and on-chain finance, it doesn’t seem entirely unimaginable.

Wait, is BlackRock really serious about going on-chain? Or is this just another marketing ploy to scam retail investors?

Wall Street is really coming, feels like this time is different
---
7000 to 9000? That's conservative, the folks at BlackRock wouldn't be so mild
---
Basically, Ethereum is transforming from a gambling chip into a production tool, a major event
---
The real question is when will large-scale adoption happen, it feels like another "next year" story
---
I agree with the positioning of financial infrastructure, but how will they handle gas fees?
---
If Robinhood and BlackRock really go on-chain for transactions, Ethereum definitely won't be enough
---
Are you trying to trick me into going all-in again? Said the same last year
---
If this wave becomes real, it's a bargain to buy now
---
The key is regulation; on-chain Wall Street doesn't mean the US allows it
---
The infrastructure logic is sound, but who knows if the timeline is reliable

The prophecy of Ethereum reaching over 10,000 by 2026, promised last time, has passed... Let me check my notebook, how many times has this happened
BlackRock and Robinhood settling on the chain, I've heard similar claims in 2023, but what does the database show about the progress so far? I suggest adding it to the Guinness World Records

$7000-$9000? Come on, only Wall Street really believes in on-chain someday.
---
Same old rhetoric, talking about infrastructure every year. When will we see real applications?
---
BlackBerry was once considered the future too. Don't be too optimistic, brother.
---
BlackRock's actions are indeed quick, but it might still be a few years before large-scale adoption.
---
Instead of waiting for ten thousand yuan, think about how to get on board now.
---
Sounds good, but in the end, isn't it just institutions cutting the leeks?
---
The internet took 20 years to become widespread; this analogy might be a bit overly optimistic.
---
Let's wait and see how Ethereum performs by the end of the year. Talking without action is useless.
---
Is Robinhood really that proactive? Feels like it's still testing the waters.

7000-9000 USD? Let's be conservative haha. Once Wall Street really gets involved, these numbers should have doubled long ago.
---
I believe BlackRock's entry, but widespread application still has to wait. Don't be too optimistic.
---
So, in the end, ETH's price still depends on actual use cases, not just hype.
---
10,000 USD? Let's see how base and optimism develop by 2026. Layer 2 competition will also divert the ecosystem.
---
These predictions are always so optimistic, said the same last year. We'll just watch and see.
---
The key is that gas fees really need to come down, or institutional user experience will collapse.
---
Ethereum's infrastructure attributes are indeed strong, but competitors are also watching closely.
---
Let's wait until tokenized assets are truly on-chain at scale before making judgments. Most are still in the pilot stage now.

Coming back with this again? If Wall Street goes on-chain, it can reach ten thousand yuan, so which parallel universe have I been in these past two years to be harvesting leeks?
Wall Street accelerates on-chain, can Ethereum reach 10,000 yuan?
