Why Ethereum is down 1.5% today
Analysis
Ethereum (ETH) fell about 1.5% over the past 24 hours as risk sentiment weakened following security-related headlines, with Cointelegraph reporting Aave’s request for Arbitrum to redirect 30K ETH tied to the Kelp exploiter—news that can pressure DeFi-linked assets. At the same time, ETF flow coverage from AMBCrypto highlighted that Bitcoin has been leading inflows while Ethereum’s institutional demand is still developing, which may have offered less near-term support for ETH in this window.
