Eth takes preparation for upcoming fork, alreay start moving faster which is impressive enough. Even it also prove again the potentiality of top altcoins comparing others. As far i got the information, this is going to be one of the biggest fork in london, so there is a chance, more incredible thing is waiting for us, i mean maybe eth could cross the $5k milestone as op predicted on this thread
Ethereum got all the chances to evnowentually reach its price into $5k and this London hard fork is probably the ultimate reason why ethereum is always on the surge right now. But still, ethereum is not exempted for a sudden price dump any time as we know how volatile the market is.
However, with the positive effect of the current hard fork, even if ethereum will experience a price correction in the middle, it will always come up rising next to bitcoin.
