Why Ethereum is up 1.1% in the last hour
Analysis
Ethereum (ETH) rose about 1.1% over the past hour as traders reacted to Ethereum ecosystem catalysts, including Decrypt’s report on the MegaETH token launch and testing of a novel rewards system on an Ethereum layer-2 network. Sentiment may also have been influenced by The Block’s coverage of an Arbitrum DAO vote to release 30,766 frozen ETH following the Kelp DAO attack, which put attention on ETH-related governance and DeFi developments.
