Based on 10 valuation methods, how much is ETH really worth?

Based on 10 valuation methods, how much is ETH really worth?

Written by Eric, Foresight News What should be the reasonable price of ETH? The market has offered numerous valuation models for this issue. Unlike Bitcoin, which has already established itself as a major asset, Ethereum, as a smart contract platform, should have a reasonable and widely accepted valuation system. However, it seems that the Web3 industry has yet to reach a consensus on this matter. A recent website launched by Hashed presented 10 valuation models that are likely to be widely accepted by the market. Of these 10 models, 8 showed that Ethereum is undervalued, with a weighted average price exceeding $4,700. So how was this price, which is close to a historical high, calculated? From TVL to staking to income Hashed categorized the 10 models into three levels—low, medium, and high—based on their reliability. We'll start with the low-reliability valuation models. TVL multiplier This model posits that Ethereum's valuation should be a multiple of its DeFi TVL, simply linking market capitalization to TVL. Hashed used the average market capitalization to TVL ratio from 2020 to 2023 (my personal understanding is from the beginning of DeFi Summer until the nested structure was not yet severe) of 7 times. By multiplying the current DeFi TVL on Ethereum by 7 and then dividing by the supply, i.e., TVL × 7 ÷ Supply, the resulting price is $4128.9, representing a 36.5% upside from the current price. This crude calculation method, which only considers DeFi TVL and cannot accurately derive the actual TVL due to its complex nested structure, certainly deserves its low reliability. Scarcity premium resulting from pledging The model takes into account that Ethereum that cannot circulate in the market due to staking will increase Ethereum's "scarcity". Multiplying the current price of Ethereum by the square root of the ratio of total supply to circulating supply, i.e., Price × √(Supply ÷ Liquid), the resulting price is 3528.2, which is 16.6% upside from the current price. This model was developed by Hashed itself, and the square root calculation is intended to mitigate extreme cases. However, according to this algorithm, ETH is always undervalued, not to mention the rationality of simply considering the "scarcity" brought about by staking and the additional liquidity of staked Ethereum released by LST, which is also very crude. Mainnet + L2 TVL multiplier Similar to the first valuation model, this model adds the TVL of all L2 and gives it a 2x weighting because of the L2's consumption of Ethereum. The calculation method is (TVL + L2_TVL×2) × 6 ÷ Supply, which gives a price of 4732.5, representing a 56.6% upside from the current price. As for the number 6, although it's not specified, it's likely a multiplier derived from historical data. While L2 is included, this valuation method still simply references TVL data and isn't significantly better than the first method. "Commitment" Premium This approach is similar to the second model, except it adds Ethereum locked in DeFi protocols. The multiplier in this model is calculated by dividing the total amount of ETH staked and locked in DeFi protocols by the total ETH supply. This multiplier represents a percentage premium resulting from a "long-term holding belief and lower liquidity supply." Adding this percentage to 1 and multiplying it by the "committed" asset's value premium index of 1.5 relative to liquid assets yields a reasonable ETH price under this model. The formula is: Price × [1 + (Staked + DeFi) ÷ Supply] × Multiplier, resulting in a price of $5097.8, representing a 69.1% upside from the current price. Hashed stated that the model was inspired by the concept that L1 tokens should be considered as currency rather than stocks, but it still falls into the problem of the fair price always being higher than the current price. The biggest problem with the four unreliable valuation methods mentioned above is the lack of rationality in considering a single dimension. For example, a higher TVL (Total Value Limit) is not necessarily better; providing better liquidity with a lower TVL is actually an improvement. As for treating Ethereum, which does not participate in circulation, as a form of scarcity or loyalty that generates a premium, this seems unable to explain how to value it once the price actually reaches the expected price. Having discussed four low-reliability valuation schemes, let's now look at five medium-reliability schemes. Market capitalization/TVL fair value This model is essentially a mean reversion model. The calculation method assumes that the historical average value of the market capitalization to TVL ratio is 6 times. If it exceeds 6 times, it is considered overvalued, and if it is not 6 times, it is considered undervalued. The formula is Price × (6 ÷ Current Ratio), which gives a price of $3,541.1, representing a 17.3% upside potential from the current price. This calculation method, which superficially references TVL data, actually takes into account historical patterns and uses a more conservative valuation approach, which does seem more reasonable than simply referencing TVL. Metcalfe's Law Metcalfe's Law is a law concerning the value of networks and the development of network technology. Proposed by George Gilder in 1993, it is named after Robert Metcalfe, a pioneer in computer networking and founder of 3Com, in recognition of his contributions to Ethernet. It states that the value of a network is equal to the square of the number of nodes within it, and that the value of the network is directly proportional to the square of the number of connected users. Hashed stated that the model has been empirically validated by academic researchers (Alabi 2017, Peterson 2018) on Bitcoin and Ethereum. TVL is used as a proxy metric for network activity. The calculation formula is 2 × (TVL/1B)^1.5 × 1B ÷ Supply, yielding a price of $9957.6, representing a 231.6% upside from the current price. This is a relatively professional model, and it has also been marked by Hashed as an academically validated model with strong historical relevance. However, it is somewhat biased to consider TVL as the sole factor. Discounted Cash Flow Method This valuation model is currently the most effective way to value Ethereum as a company, treating Ethereum's staking rewards as revenue and calculating its current value using the discounted cash flow (DCF) method. Hashed's calculation is Price × (1 + APR) ÷ (0.10 - 0.03), where 10% is the discount rate and 3% is the perpetual growth rate. This formula is clearly flawed; the actual result should be Price × APR × (1/1.07 + 1/1.07^2 + ... + 1/1.07^n) as n approaches infinity. Even using the formula provided by Hashed, this result cannot be calculated. If calculated with an annualized interest rate of 2.6%, the actual reasonable price should be around 37% of the current price. Valuation by price-to-sales ratio In Ethereum, the price-to-sales ratio (P/S ratio) refers to the ratio of market capitalization to annual transaction fee revenue. Since transaction fees ultimately go to validators, there is no price-to-earnings ratio (P/E ratio) for the network. Token Terminal uses this method for valuation, with 25 times earnings representing a growth-oriented tech stock valuation level, which Hashed calls the "industry standard for L1 protocol valuation." The model's calculation formula is Annual_Fees × 25 ÷ Supply, resulting in a price of $1285.7, representing a 57.5% downside from the current price. The two examples above show that Ethereum's price is severely overvalued using traditional valuation methods. However, Ethereum is clearly not an application, and in my opinion, this valuation method is flawed even in its underlying logic. On-chain total asset valuation This valuation model, while seemingly illogical at first glance, makes some sense upon closer examination. Its core argument is that for Ethereum to ensure network security, its market capitalization should match the value of all assets settled on it. Therefore, the calculation is simple: divide the total value of all assets on Ethereum, including stablecoins, ERC-20 tokens, NFTs, etc., by Ethereum's total supply. The result is $4923.5, representing a 62.9% upside from the current price. This is the simplest valuation model to date, but its core assumptions give the impression that something is wrong, though it's hard to pinpoint exactly what's wrong. Income bond model The only highly reliable valuation model among all available, which Hashed claims is favored by TradeFi analysts who assess cryptocurrencies as an alternative asset class, is one that values Ethereum as a yield bond. The calculation method divides Ethereum's annual revenue by its staking yield to calculate its total market capitalization, using the formula Annual_Revenue ÷ APR ÷ Supply. This yields a value of $1941.5, representing a 36.7% downside from the current price. The only instance, perhaps due to its widespread adoption in the financial sector and its perceived high reliability, is that Ethereum's price has been "undervalued" using traditional valuation methods. Therefore, this could be strong evidence that Ethereum is not a security. Valuing a public blockchain may require considering a variety of factors. The valuation system for public blockchain tokens may need to consider many factors. Hashed calculated a weighted average of the above 10 methods based on reliability, and the result was about $4,766. However, given that the calculation of the discounted cash flow method may be incorrect, the actual result may be slightly lower than this figure. If I were to value Ethereum, my core algorithm would likely focus on supply and demand. Since Ethereum is a "currency" with practical uses—whether paying gas fees, buying NFTs, or forming LPs—ETH is required. Therefore, it might be necessary to calculate a parameter based on network activity levels to measure the supply and demand of ETH over a period of time. This parameter would then be combined with the actual cost of executing transactions on Ethereum and compared to prices under similar historical parameters to arrive at a fair price. However, according to this method, if the growth in activity on Ethereum cannot keep up with the decline in costs, there is a reason why the price of ETH will not rise. In the past two years, the level of activity on Ethereum has actually been higher than that during the bull market in 2021 at some points, but due to the decline in costs, the demand for Ethereum is not high, resulting in an actual oversupply of Ethereum. However, the only thing that this valuation method, which compares with history, cannot take into account is Ethereum's potential. Perhaps at some point, when Ethereum experiences the same boom as when DeFi was emerging, we will need to factor in the "market-to-dream ratio".

Ethereum Whales And Binance Signal Potential Price Rally

Ethereum Whales And Binance Signal Potential Price Rally

Crypto market analysis currently shows a critical divergence in on-chain data, indicating strong potential for a significant upside move. Recent findings confirm that influential Ethereum Whales are aggressively accumulating ETH, which pushed their total holdings to a historic high. Simultaneously, Binance has seen ETH reserves plummeting, while stablecoin reserves surged to a new record. Historic Accumulation by Ethereum Whales Ethereum’s most influential market participants have shifted their strategy toward aggressive long-term accumulation. Data identifies holders with balances between 10,000 and 100,000 ETH as the primary drivers of this trend. The influential group recently pushed their total balance past 21 million ETH, setting a new record and a strong accumulation wave. Mid-cap whales used recent months to increase their holdings. Such a demographic often acts as a leading indicator for broader market trends. Their refusal to sell, combined with active buying, establishes a high-conviction floor for the asset. Confidence extends beyond the mid-cap tier to the largest entities in the ecosystem. The “mega-whale” cohort, defined as addresses holding more than 100,000 ETH, has expanded its balance to approximately 4.3 million ETH. This rise reflects a decisive shift in sentiment among institutional and highly liquid investors. In the past, when these huge groups buy, it comes before a strong price support level. These bases often act as starting points for big market rallies as the investors see current prices as a good deal. By locking away millions of ETH, they cut the supply available for trading. Both mid-cap whales and mega-whales increased their ETH holdings. – Source: CryptoQuant Learn more: NFTPlazas Guide: Ethereum Blockchain Fundamental Falling Binance Reserves, Record Stablecoin Inflows Data from Binance, the world’s largest exchange, backs up the bullish idea. Since August 15th, the exchange has seen a big difference in money flows. In just a few months, Ethereum reserves on Binance nearly dropped by half. The total value fell from over 20 billion to under 11 billion. The actual number of Ethereum tokens dropped to 3.764 million ETH in November. Investors clearly prefer cold storage or staking instead of keeping assets on exchanges. While volatile assets leave exchanges, stablecoins are flooding in. The inflow creates a strong opposite trend. Tether (USDT) reserves across TRC20 and ERC20 networks on Binance surged from 26 billion to a record-breaking 42 billion. This metric serves as the key to understanding the current market sentiment. Traders have taken profits during previous peaks but have not exited the crypto ecosystem. Instead of leaving, they put cash into stablecoins right on the exchange. The USDT setup shows that traders are not bearish; they are waiting for the right moment. Binance reserves show decreasing ETH supply while stablecoins surged. – Source: CryptoQuant What Comes Next? The data mix creates a “coiled spring” effect in the market. Two strong forces now meet: a dropping supply of assets for sale (BTC and ETH) and an all-time high in buying power (USDT reserves). Market players currently show “armed patience.” Investors wait for a specific sign, such as a price dip or better economic news, to use this money. When this cash floods the market, it chases a small supply of coins. Thus, the on-chain signs give a clear outlook: The market looks quiet but holds lots of cash. Whales act with conviction by removing supply, while traders stand ready with record levels of stablecoin capital. This structure typically precedes significant market volatility favoring the upside. As the supply of Ethereum and Bitcoin disappears into cold storage, the $42 billion in stablecoin reserves will likely fuel the next big market growth.

Solana Proposes Double Disinflation Amid Huge ETF Inflows

Solana Proposes Double Disinflation Amid Huge ETF Inflows

Solana ETFs (SOL) have attracted record net inflows in November, making them the single-largest draw in the crypto market. This institutional success, largely fueled by the network’s attractive staking yield, is now colliding with a new governance proposal to execute a double disinflation. Managing a recent 30% price correction, Solana now faces a critical choice: embrace long-term scarcity and reshape its economic identity, or maintain the high yield that is currently driving its institutional gold rush. Solana Supply Shock: Double Disinflation Proposal Helius Labs recently introduced the SIMD-0411 proposal, marking one of the most substantial monetary policies proposed since Solana’s launch. Developers plan to double the network’s annual disinflation rate, increasing it from 15% to 30%. The accelerated timeline brings the target date for the terminal 1.5% inflation rate forward by three years. This change cuts total projected emissions by over 22 million SOL (approximately $3 billion) over the next six years. big solana inflation reduction proposal is now live tl;dr — we are proposing to speed up the existing solana disinflation rate by 2x no complex mechanisms and no adverse cuts, and after alpenglow (and vote reduction) we don’t need to leak this value — mert | helius.dev (@0xMert_) November 21, 2025 Source: Solana Floor Proponents maintain that the network is mature, citing massive increases in both network revenue and DeFi throughput. They argue this growth justifies lowering the issuance schedule, which in turn reduces structural sell pressure and satisfies institutional demands for disciplined tokenomics. The drive to create scarcity is taking place during a period of intense market difficulty affecting Solana’s price. Forward Industries, the largest corporate owner of SOL, is currently facing an estimated loss of $646.6 million. Upexi, the fifth-largest corporate SOL holder, has accrued approximately $31 million in unrealized losses, reflecting a 10% drop from its original purchase prices. In contrast, DeFi Development Corp. (DFDV), the proposal’s first major supporter, maintains a $62 million profit. Investors Pivot to Yield: $419M ETF Inflows In the meantime, market flow data for November strongly validates Solana’s appeal as a “productive yield asset.” While major assets saw massive redemptions, Solana ETFs attracted $419.38 million in fresh capital. To be more specific, Bitcoin ETFs witnessed $3.57 billion in net redemptions, and Ether ETFs lost $1.56 billion during the same period. Solana ETFs attracted a total of $419.38M in November. – Source: SoSoValue In other words, investors increasingly choose the steady income of Solana’s 5 – 7% native staking yield over the purely speculative nature of assets like Bitcoin, whose exchange-traded products offer no yield. Everstake co-founder Bohdan Opryshko explains that retail and institutional participants now treat SOL as an income-generating tool rather than simply a speculative trade. Explore more about Solana basics with NFTPlazas Scarcity or Yield? Data from Coinbase confirms that a compelling 67% of all circulating SOL is in staking, a ratio that Sebastien Gilquin, Head of BD and Partnerships at Trezor, cites as one of the strongest staking profiles among proof-of-stake blockchains. Total staked SOL climbed this year to 407 million, and retail delegators increased their holdings by over 238,000 SOL even during the 30% downturn. The data sets create a critical economic conflict. Solana’s ETFs success hinges on the high yield, which depends on the current inflation rate. Yet, SIMD-0411 seeks to cut the inflation rate in half to achieve scarcity. If the community approves the double disinflation plan, the resulting reduction in emissions will cut the staking yield, potentially halving the rate that currently protects SOL from the market outflows hurting its competitors.
