Ethereum (ETH) slipped 1.5% over the past 24 hours as ETF-related headlines were mixed, with one report noting XRP outperformed Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana in the latest ETF performance, potentially drawing relative attention away from ETH (U.Today). While a separate update highlighted continued institutional buying—Bitmine adding $69 million of ETH and an analyst expecting the uptrend to resume—ETH still traded lower on the day, suggesting the positive flow news wasn’t enough to offset broader near-term pressure (CoinDesk).
