The cryptocurrency market is again showing signs of recovery, with most of its assets trading in the green – both in their daily and weekly charts – including one of its largest tokens – Ethereum (ETH), leading the crypto community to predict its further improvement by the end of October.
As it happens, the community votes at CoinMarketCap have projected that Ethereum’s token would trade at a median price of $1,578 on October 31, 2022, according to the latest data retrieved using the platform’s ‘Price Estimates’ tool on September 27.
Notably, the crypto community’s price forecast for Ethereum, the result of 2,244 cast votes, indicates an increase of $186.89 or 13.34% from its current price which at press time stood at $1,391.65.
In terms of forecasts for the end of November, they are slightly less bullish, presently standing at $1,565.99 by 1,104 votes cast, which would represent an increase of $174.34 or 12.53% to the decentralized finance (DeFi) token’s current price.
