Naturally, big price predictions have started to reemerge.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"hayes-adds-more\">Hayes Adds More<\/h2>\n<p>Arthur Hayes has demonstrated a slightly controversial behavior toward the largest altcoin in the past month or so. As <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/arthur-hayes-buys-eth-above-1900-weeks-after-selling-at-1700\/\">reported<\/a> just a few weeks ago, he disposed of his entire stash for more than $10 million at average prices of under $1,700. The problem was that he accumulated this fortune at prices of over $1,900.<\/p>\n<p>Once the cryptocurrency rebounded and flew past $1,900 later in the month, Hayes started to reaccumulate. Data from Lookonchain shows that he has spent roughly $7.5 million since July 15 to purchase a total of 3,915 ETH.<\/p>\n<p>The latest buy came hours ago, in which he splashed $1.2 million to add 645 tokens to his stash. Interestingly, his average accumulation price is still just over $1,900 per ETH.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Arthur Hayes(<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoHayes?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">@CryptoHayes<\/a>) bought another 645 <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/search?q=%24ETH&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">$ETH<\/a> ($1.2M) 9 hours ago.<\/p>\n<p>Since July 15, Arthur Hayes has bought a total of 3,915 <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/search?q=%24ETH&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">$ETH<\/a> ($7.47M) at an average price of $1,909 and is now down ~$113K.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/gau6egd7Vm\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/t.co\/gau6egd7Vm<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/920H4QhaHe\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/920H4QhaHe<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Lookonchain (@lookonchain) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/lookonchain\/status\/2081213936402374803?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">July 26, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"4k-eth\">$4K ETH?<\/h2>\n<p>Doctor Profit is a popular crypto analyst who nailed some of the recent corrections, including the big crash from $126,000.
