Ethereum's price history suggests that that crypto was worth more in 2025 than during late 2021, although nowhere near the highest price recorded. Much like Bitcoin (BTC), the price of ETH went up in 2021 but for different reasons altogether: Ethereum, for instance, hit the news when a digital art piece was sold as the world's most expensive NFT for over 38,000 ETH - or 69.3 million U.S. dollars. Unlike Bitcoin, of which the price growth was fueled by the IPO of the U.S.'s biggest crypto trader, Coinbase, the rally on Ethereum came from technological developments that caused much excitement among traders. First, the so-called 'Berlin update' rolled out on the Ethereum network in April 2021, an update that would eventually lead to the Ethereum Merge in 2022 and reduced ETH gas prices - or reduced transaction fees. The collapse of FTX in late 2022, however, changed much for the cryptocurrency. As of August 27, 2025, Ethereum was worth 4,602.37 U.S. dollars - significantly less than the 4,400 U.S. dollars by the end of 2021.Ethereum's future and the DeFi industryPrice developments on Ethereum are difficult to predict but cannot be seen without the world of DeFi, or decentralized finance. This industry used technology to remove intermediaries between parties in a financial transaction. One example includes crypto wallets such as Coinbase Wallet that grew in popularity recently, with other examples including smart contractor Uniswap, Maker (responsible for stablecoin DAI), moneylender Dharma and market protocol Compound. Ethereum's future developments are tied with this industry: Unlike Bitcoin and Ripple, Ethereum is technically not a currency but an open-source software platform for blockchain applications, with Ether being the cryptocurrency that is used inside the Ethereum network. Essentially, Ethereum facilitates DeFi, meaning that if DeFi does well, so does Ethereum.NFTs: the most well-known application of EthereumNFTs or non-fungible tokens, grew nearly tenfold between 2018 and 2020, as can be seen in the market cap of NFTs worldwide. These digital blockchain assets can essentially function as a unique code connected to a digital file, allowing to distinguish the original file from any potential copies. This application is especially prominent in crypto art, although there are other applications: gaming, sports, and collectibles are other segments where NFT sales occur.

The price of Ethereum Classic (ETC) - a different crypto than Ethereum (ETH) - decreased significantly following the Ethereum Merge of September 2022. After years of development, the "original" Ethereum changed from proof-of-work (mining) to proof-of-stake (staking) during this event. This change had the potential to impact both the transaction speed as well as the energy consumption of the Ethereum blockchain. Some miners, however, started looking into Proof-of-Work alternatives were they could continue using their mining rigs - including Ethereum Classic (ETC), but also EthereumPOW (ETHW), and Ravencoin (RVN). The influx caused such a spike in hashrate - the computing power required to successfully mine a crypto - that the price declined.

High: The high is the highest price at which a stock is traded during a period. Here the period is a day.

Low: The low is the lowest price at which a stock is traded during a period. Here the period is a day.

Adj Close: The adjusted closing price amends a stock's closing price to reflect that stock's value after accounting for any corporate actions. The adjusted closing price factors in corporate actions, such as stock splits, dividends, and rights offerings.

Volume: Volume is the number of shares of security traded during a given period of time. Here the security is stock and the period of time is a day.

In April 2021, the Ethereum market cap reached new heights and grew to over *** billion U.S. dollars - the first time this cryptocurrency achieved that feat. The market capitalization in August 2020 was half this amount. Market capitalization is calculated by multiplying the total number of Ethereum in circulation by the Ethereum price. Compared to the Bitcoin market capitalization, however, Ethereum was not yet as popular.

The price of an Ethereum sister project aimed at preserving the cryptocurrency's old mining network decreased significantly in September 2022. The fork - a change to a blockchain's code - occurred in the build-up towards the Ethereum Merge that month, when Ethereum (ETH) changed from proof-of-work (mining) to proof-of-stake (staking). This change had the potential to impact both the transaction speed as well as the energy consumption of the Ethereum blockchain. Some of the network's former miners, though, planned to keep the old system running in a project called EthereumPOW (ETHW). Analysts observed the initial launch of ETHW was marred with both technical problems as well as competition from Ethereum Classic (ETC) - an older version of ETH.

Cryptocurrency historical datasets from January 2012 (if available) to October 2021 were obtained and integrated from various sources and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) including Yahoo Finance, Cryptodownload, CoinMarketCap, various Kaggle datasets, and multiple APIs. While these datasets used various formats of time (e.g., minutes, hours, days), in order to integrate the datasets days format was used for in this research study. The integrated cryptocurrency historical datasets for 80 cryptocurrencies including but not limited to Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Binance Coin (BNB), Cardano (ADA), Tether (USDT), Ripple (XRP), Solana (SOL), Polkadot (DOT), USD Coin (USDC), Dogecoin (DOGE), Tron (TRX), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Litecoin (LTC), EOS (EOS), Cosmos (ATOM), Stellar (XLM), Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), Uniswap (UNI), Terra (LUNA), SHIBA INU (SHIB), and 60 more cryptocurrencies were uploaded in this online Mendeley data repository. Although the primary attribute of including the mentioned cryptocurrencies was the Market Capitalization, a subject matter expert i.e., a professional trader has also guided the initial selection of the cryptocurrencies by analyzing various indicators such as Relative Strength Index (RSI), Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD), MYC Signals, Bollinger Bands, Fibonacci Retracement, Stochastic Oscillator and Ichimoku Cloud. The primary features of this dataset that were used as the decision-making criteria of the CLUS-MCDA II approach are Timestamps, Open, High, Low, Closed, Volume (Currency), % Change (7 days and 24 hours), Market Cap and Weighted Price values.

Ethereum trading volume more than doubled on May 19, 2021, compared to the previous day, following news that China banned crypto services inside the country. Following this news, the market cap for the entire crypto market fell by billions of U.S. dollars. The Ethereum price that day also witnessed one of its biggest single-day declines on record. The price decline potentially may have attracted new investors to the cryptocurrency, leading to the increase in trading volume.
