Why Ethereum is down 1.6% today

Analysis

Ethereum (ETH) fell 1.6% over the past 24 hours amid negative sentiment tied to reports of internal governance shifts at the Ethereum Foundation, with Vitalik Buterin said to be reducing his own influence as ETH sales slow (BeInCrypto). ETH also faced relative pressure from a narrative that large institutions are rotating toward Bitcoin, after a report claiming Bank of America “dumped” Ethereum and Solana for Bitcoin (U.Today).
