“Ethereum faced its own bearish momentum, dropping to $2,347, a 3 per cent decline in 24 hours. The broader market context reveals a 20 per cent Bitcoin decline since major ETF launches by BlackRock and Fidelity. Bitcoin’s miner stress, low transaction fees, and institutional accumulation impact its dynamics.
