Why Ethereum is down 1.1% in the last hour

Analysis

Ethereum (ETH) slipped 1.1% over the past hour as market focus stayed on the narrative that ETH remains well below its prior peak and is increasingly reliant on institutional inflows to support a recovery. While headlines highlighted steps aimed at boosting institutional adoption—such as Ethereum executives launching a non-profit (CryptoPotato) and Robinhood announcing an “AI-native” Ethereum layer-2 initiative tied to tokenized stock trading (Decrypt)—the immediate price action still tilted risk-off amid the broader “still near lows” framing (BeInCrypto).
