Our dear former BitMEX Chancellor, Mr. Arthur Hayes, seems to have indulged in a rather bold vision regarding Ethereum (ETH), challenging the noble folk of the crypto realm to rally their spirits and achieve the lofty price of $5,000. 🤑
In the memorable post of July 21 on the platform known as X, Mr. Hayes expressed his whimsical desire for the price of this etheric creation to ascend to heights previously unknown by the upcoming weekend. “Pray tell, can we elevate $ETH to the illustrious $5k by Friday?” he inquired. This proclamation reached the ears of many shortly after ETH enjoyed an invigorating jaunt to an intraday zenith of $3,822, his finest resurgence since late 2024. 🏰
In a fashion most engaging, the tweet ignited a lively discourse amongst the populace. One Thomas Lee, the esteemed chairman of Bitmine Immersions (disclaimer: not a drummer), deemed it a “good idea.” 🤔

Mr. Hayes, ever the cunning orchestrator, followed his initial jibe with the astute observation that Mr. Lee’s connections in traditional finance might just coax that price surge along, subtly insinuating that his firm may wish to increase their ethereal acquisitions.
With hope and exuberance cascading through the ether, various commenters rallied around the “pump” narrative, cheering for the ambitious $5K target. Yet, amidst the jubilations, some ventured to declare a more modest but realistic quest for $4,000 this week, suggesting that the grandeur of $5,000 might be more suitably approached in a future week. 📈
Alas, what fate awaits ETH? Shall it soar to $4K, or perhaps even towards the exalted $5K? All shall depend on a convergence of favorable circumstances, preserving the enlivening momentum so desired.
Could Ethereum Truly Reach the Fabled $5k?
Endeavoring to reach this ambitious goal, Ethereum has shown a commendable rise of 24% in the last week alone, and a striking 56% over the past month. To meet Mr. Hayes’ challenge, a further ascent of 32% would be necessary by Friday. A feat that might be ambitious, yet not entirely beyond the realms of possibility. 🏇
A most recent report from CoinShares brings tidings of institutional wealth cascading into Ethereum, with an impressive influx of $2.12 billion recorded merely last week. Total inflows for the year thus far have reached $6.2 billion, a figure that eclipses the entirety of 2024! Such sums now account for roughly 23% of all Ethereum assets under management—indeed a splendid performance for our cryptographic companion.
Moreover, the ETFs tracking this Ethereum spectacle have also flourished, recording inflows of $2.18 billion—the most robust since their inception! Institutional treasuries, those grand custodians of wealth, are following in kind, with multitudes of dollars flowing into Ethereum through large-scale undertakings by prominent institutions. Two such treasury firms have disclosed recent purchases exceeding $2 billion and have hinted at ambitions to procure even further. 💰
These encouraging trends bode well for ETH’s future. If such accumulation continues, and should the brilliant ether break decisively above the $3,800-$4,000 thresholds, Mr. Hayes’ ambitious target of $5,000 could quite possibly gather the momentum of a thousand gallant steeds. 🏇
