Why Ethereum is down 2.1% today
Analysis
Ethereum (ETH) fell 2.1% over the past 24 hours as risk sentiment softened following news of an exploit affecting Ethereum NFTs, even though Yuga Labs moved to rescue dozens of assets—an incident that can weigh on broader confidence in the ecosystem. While Tom Lee’s BitMine was reported to be “buying the dip” and adding roughly $214M in ETH, that supportive flow wasn’t enough to offset the market’s near-term selloff pressure.
