Why Ethereum is down 3.0% today
Analysis
Ethereum (ETH) fell about 3% over the past 24 hours amid broader risk-off selling, as crypto perpetuals—including ETH—saw a sudden dump tied to rising “Black Monday” fears, pressuring prices across majors. Sentiment was also weighed down by security concerns after Cysic suspended its bridge when an attacker minted tokens and moved roughly $727,000 to Ethereum, reinforcing exploit-related caution in DeFi.
