Why Ethereum is down 3.7% today
Analysis
Ethereum (ETH) fell 3.7% over the past 24 hours as broader risk sentiment weakened alongside Bitcoin, with reports highlighting deepening “crypto fear” and continued pullbacks that likely pressured ETH as part of the wider market move (AMBCrypto). Additional headlines around Ethereum-linked treasury activity—such as Bit Digital’s plan to wind down bitcoin mining operations while positioning around an Ethereum treasury strategy—may have added to near-term uncertainty rather than providing immediate demand support (The Block).
