Ethereum Price Prediction: Billion-Dollar Mortgage Giant Backs ETH – Is This the Start of Crypto-Backed Homeownership?

ETH may have just received its strongest mainstream vote of confidence yet, with $778 billion mortgage lender Newrez backing bullish Ethereum price predictions.

The altcoin will now be recognised by Newrez as a liquid asset alongside Bitcoin, meaning it can be considered in asset verification and income assessment when qualifying for a mortgage.

Holders using U.S.-regulated exchanges will no longer need to liquidate their ETH to meet lending requirements.

In the press release, Newrez cites rising adoption as the ground that it is the “right time” for recognition, with regulation driving an increasing number of consumers to include crypto in their investment portfolios.

The move represents more than just increased exposure. It marks a clear step toward mainstream acceptance, with Newrez positioning itself as the first major U.S. mortgage provider to acknowledge ETH in this way.

By giving Ethereum a real-world financial use case, the policy encourages long-term holding, tightens available liquidity, and strengthens the foundation for sustained price appreciation.

Ethereum Price Predicition: ETH-Backed Homeownership Could Support Breakout

Hallmarks in mainstream acceptance like this could go a long way to support the final leg of a 21-month bullish head-and-shoulders pattern.

The pattern now navigates its final push with the right shoulder now forming, and momentum indicators flipping in its support.

The RSI continues to compress against the 50 neutral line with a series of higher lows forming and an uptrend, suggesting strength steadily building under the surface.

The MACD follows suit, closing in on a cross above the signal line, which, on the weekly chart, often signifies a shift the shift into a bull run.

A fully realised right shoulder stands to see a return to previous all-time highs around $5,000, representing a 70% gain from current levels.

Though as other outlets for mainstream use cases of Ethereum open up as regulation and the bull market matures, that push could credibly push into new price discovery, eying a 240% move to the $10,000 milestone.

Bitcoin Hyper: Catalysts Are Lining Up For Bitcoin Too

Bitcoin also stands as a beneficiary of Newrez recognition, adding to the growing number of catalysts building in its favour. Most notably, a push to tackle its biggest limitation: scalability.

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is a new presale that is bridging Bitcoin’s security with Solana tech, creating a new Layer-2 network that unlocks scalable, efficient use cases Bitcoin couldn’t support on its own.

It opens the door for Bitcoin to play a larger role in top-performing narratives like DeFi and real-world assets – where speed and efficiency matter most.

The project has already raised over $30 million in presale, and post-launch, even a small fraction of Bitcoin’s massive trading volume could send its valuation significantly higher.

Bitcoin Hyper is fixing the slow transactions, high fees, and limited programmability that have long capped Bitcoin’s potential – just as the market turns bullish.
