Since 2016, Ethereum has only concluded December higher than it started in four of the nine years studied.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the remaining five cases, the month ended in negative territory. The average December return throughout this span is about 7%, indicating that a strong &#8220;Santa rally&#8221; is improbable. The median performance shows a 6% drop.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Examining the relationship between November and December reveals a more intriguing pattern. Between 2016 and 2024, when November has been weak for ETH, December often followed suit, with three out of four instances showing declines.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The only outlier was in 2018, when Ethereum rebounded in December after a particularly harsh downturn in November. This historical context suggests that a poor performance in November could carry over into December, making a cheerful month less probable.<\/p>\n<p>But while December&#8217;s performance has historically been mixed, the beginning of the year has typically shown strong potential for the Ethereum price, particularly in the first and second quarters.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In fact, average returns tend to peak in the first quarter at around 77% and the second quarter at approximately 64%, indicating that there may still be significant growth on the horizon for the leading altcoin.<\/p>\n<h2>Tom Lee Foresees Ethereum Surging To $7,000\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>Amidst this hypothetical scenario, Tom Lee, chairman of BitMine Immersion Technologies and a major industry advocate, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/investing\/2025\/11\/27\/1-cryptocurrency-buy-before-soars-147-wall-street\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">predicts <\/a>a bright future for Ethereum in the near and long term.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The executive believes that the cryptocurrency could surge to $7,000 per coin heading into the first quarter of 2026, reflecting a nearly 150% price surge from its current value.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lee is even more optimistic about the long term, predicting that if his vision for a decentralized financial system materializes, the Ethereum price could soar by 2,090% to reach $62,000 by 2035.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/HM5nqwGn\/\" alt=\"Ethereum\" width=\"1814\" height=\"928\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After a challenging year in which ETH significantly underperformed its peers, it has shown increased resilience, especially following the recent crash in crypto prices that saw the token\u2019s valuation drop to $2,600 last Friday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Currently, ETH is trading just above $3,000. While this is not bullish enough to outpace the recent crash, ETH is positioned to recover significantly if demand and capital flow back into exchange-traded funds (ETFs) as the year comes to a close.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ethereum (ETH) has joined Bitcoin (BTC) in a notable price recovery, managing to reclaim the $3,000 mark.
