Move over roller coasters; Ethereum is taking the biggest thrill-seekers for a ride. Whether you're a hardcore HODLer or just someone who accidentally bought ETH instead of ETHOS toilet paper, this one's for you. If investor sentiment does a 180, experts are buzzing about a rally towards the mystical $2,700 mark. Perfect if you're planning to buy that island made entirely of virtual cats.

The big brains are saying all it takes is a little sentiment shift. Maybe Ethereum's competitors forgot their lobbyists in the last hard fork update?
