Analysis
ETH slipped about 1% over the past hour as traders appeared to fade regulatory/security headlines rather than treat them as an immediate bullish catalyst. The Ethereum Foundation’s new “Clear Signing” standard aimed at reducing malicious approvals is constructive long-term but doesn’t directly boost near-term demand, which may have contributed to a modest pullback (CoinDesk; Cointelegraph).
