Ether sold for around 30 cents in its 2014 crowdsale and launched in 2015. It first boomed to roughly $1,400 in January 2018 on the ICO wave, collapsed with that bubble, then rode the DeFi and NFT cycle to a record $4,878 in November 2021.
The 2022 bear market cut it below $900, but that September the network executed the Merge — switching to proof-of-stake and cutting its energy use by over 99% — one of the most ambitious upgrades ever performed on a live financial network. Spot ETFs followed in 2024, and in 2025 ether finally surpassed its 2021 record, nearly four years after setting it.
The table above summarises how the Ethereum price has moved over each window using open, high, and low values, with the percentage change from the start of the period to now. Short windows reflect recent volatility, while the 1-year and 5-year rows show the longer-term trend. Historical performance is descriptive, not predictive — it summarises the past rather than forecasting the future.
