The post Ethereum’s Price Soars Amidst BlackRock’s ETF Filing and Growing Network Sentiments appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Ethereum (ETH) price experienced one of its best performing days on Thursday as Bitcoin (BTC) price teased $38k for the first time since the crypto capitulation induced by Terra Luna UST implosion. As of Friday during the early Asian market, Ethereum price has been hovering around $2,120, after an impressive 10 percent rally in the past 24 hours. Consequently, Ethereum investors have seen their portfolios grow by about 65 percent year-to-date (YTD).
Ethereum ETF at the Horizon
Amid the heightened altcoin speculations in the past few weeks, the recent Ethereum rally was triggered by the revelation that $9 trillion asset manager BlackRock filed to offer an Ethereum exchange-traded fund (ETF). It is worth noting that BlackRock CEO Larry Fink had previously stated he is bullish on crypto as investors flee to quality smart products. The diversification into Ethereum indicates rising demand for the leading intelligent contracts and DeFi ecosystem that will unlock more investments from traditional fund managers, including retirement accounts, in the coming years.
Rising Network Sentiments
#Ethereum's market value has jumped +38% in 4 weeks, powered by high network growth. Particularly micro addresses (<0.1 $ETH), which recently surpassed over 100K wallets for the first time. Even the 0.1-10 $ETH and 10K+ $ETH tiers are finally rising. https://t.co/O8kQXJkMxG pic.twitter.com/hvKBepNnDJ
