Vince Quill 3 minutes ago Most Ethereum valuation models indicate ETH is undervalued: Analyst Although most models projected ETH prices above $4,000, one critical valuation model bucked the trend, signaling that ETH may be overvalued. Listen 0:00 News COINTELEGRAPH IN YOUR SOCIAL FEED The native token of the Ethereum network, Ether ( ETH ), is undervalued in nine out of 12 commonly used valuation models, according to Ki Young Ju, a market analyst and CEO of crypto market analysis platform CryptoQuant. A composite “fair value” using all 12 valuation models prices ETH at about $4,836, an over 58% gain compared to its price at the time of this writing. Each valuation model was rated on a three-tiered scale for reliability, with three being the most reliable. Eight out of the 12 models feature a reliability rating of at least two. “These models were built by trusted experts across academia and traditional finance,” Ju said . 12 different ETH valuation models signal that ETH is undervalued at current market prices just north of $3,000.

Using Metcalfe’s Law, which states that the value of a network grows in proportion to the square of real active users or the number of nodes in the network, projects an ETH price of $9,484, meaning the asset is over 211% undervalued, according to the model. Valuing ETH through the Layer-2 (L2) framework, which accounts for the total value locked (TVL) in Ethereum’s layer-2 scaling network ecosystem, projects a price of $4,633 per ETH, meaning that ETH is about 52% undervalued.

ETH should carry a price tag of about $1,296, according to the model, highlighting the Ethereum network’s dwindling revenue generation as fees reach record lows and competing networks absorb some of its market share.
