Why Ethereum is up 1.2% in the last hour

Analysis

Ethereum (ETH) rose 1.2% over the past hour as broader sentiment stabilized after earlier geopolitical-driven selling tied to reports that the Iran ceasefire was fraying, which had pressured ETH alongside other majors, per CoinDesk. Separately, ETF-flow and relative valuation chatter in the large-cap altcoin space—highlighted by U.Today’s SOL/ETH market-cap comparison—may have helped keep attention on major smart-contract assets, supporting a modest rebound in ETH.
