Ether might lead a potential Q1 rally in 2025, echoing its strong performances in 2017 and 2021. Historically, post-election and Bitcoin halving cycles have boosted Ether, with past gains surpassing Bitcoin's. Recent inflows into Ether ETFs, totaling over $2.5 billion, suggest optimism, with predictions of $50 billion in net inflows by 2025. However, a "hawkish" macro climate could temper growth, as the Federal Reserve's revised interest rate cuts might create a challenging environment for risk assets. Despite this, Bitcoin could still hit $160,000 in a favorable scenario.
