Based on: Speculative
ETH at $2,411.99 on September 2, 2026 (MetaMask), down on 'Iran war reignites' headlines (Yahoo Finance, Sep 2). ETH gained +32.5% in August 2026; Bitcoin at $77,000. For a year-end close above $3,000, ETH must gain +24.4% from current levels. The existing prediction 'ETH > $2,800 on September 30' implies upward momentum through autumn; $3,000 by year-end is the logical next milestone. Bitcoin targets of $85,000โ$100,000 by year-end (existing predictions) imply ETH at $3,300โ$3,900 at a constant ETH/BTC ratio. No active Kalshi/Polymarket market for ETH year-end $3,000 found; calibrated via BTC correlation and August momentum.
