Analysis
Ethereum (ETH) rose about 1.1% over the past hour as traders reacted to reports that JPMorgan is bringing its JPM Coin (a token representing dollar deposits) to Ethereum, a move seen as strengthening Ethereum’s institutional adoption narrative. CoinDesk, citing Bloomberg, reported the expansion, and The Block similarly noted JPMorgan is extending the deposit token to Ethereum for institutional clients, which likely supported near-term buying.
