If you're looking for the most "rhythmic" voice in the cryptocurrency market in 2025, the co-founder and chief investment officer of a leading investment institution often attracts the most attention. This Wall Street-born analyst, known as the "Wall Street fortune teller," has recently become the spokesperson for Ethereum bulls—at an industry forum on December 4, he bluntly stated that the $3000 ETH is "severely undervalued" and even claimed that by the end of 2025, ETH could soar to $15,000.

As a strategy expert who has been actively present in the media and institutional roadshows for years, every word he says is seen by the market as a barometer, leading to a surge in bullish sentiment.

But things took a turn. When people shifted their focus from public statements to the internal subscription client documents of the institution, they discovered a shocking contrast: in the latest 2026 strategy outlook released by the same institution, the benchmark forecast was actually the opposite — predicting that significant pullbacks in crypto assets could occur in the first half of 2026, with the target range for ETH set at 1800–2000 dollars.

One person shouts 15,000, while another quietly looks at 1,800–2,000. Such "nested" differences in viewpoints have instantly become the focus of public opinion. Is the public statement reserved, or are internal documents more authentic? The market is beginning to reassess those seemingly authoritative institutional predictions—after all, real monetary advice is often hidden in behind-the-scenes private meetings.
