Outcome evidence
Ethereum entered and exceeded the $4,000 level during 2025: it hit a 2025 (and all-time) high of approximately $4,946-$4,956 on 2025-08-24/25. Prior to the ATH it also traded through the $4,000-$5,000 zone (e.g., exceeding $4,500 by late September). The >= $4,000 threshold and the $4,000-$5,000 zone were clearly reached.
Corroboration that ETH's 2025 range spanned roughly $1,786 to $4,955, confirming it traded within and above the $4,000-$5,000 band during 2025 (peak ~$4,955 in August).
Corrections
- horizon type: 'this year' maps to Dec 31 via the deadline-inference table, so the deadline is inferred, not an explicitly stated date.
