because it matters
Bitcoin is showing no signs of breaking above the $46,000 level touched this week, but it hasn’t lost much ground either.

Regarding Ethereum, Bitpanda product director Lukas Enzersdorfer-Konrad said that London’s hard fork fee mechanism “seems bullish on the price of ETH.”

Enzersdorfer-Konrad said that Ethereum is slowly “moving away” from Bitcoin, and the latter’s higher returns to date are an indicator of that impact. At press time, BTC and ETH are up 53.07% and 313.47% respectively so far this year.
“A reduction in the number of new coins, coupled with a burn mechanism that reduces supply, could be a catalyst for the price of ethereum, which could translate into higher returns than bitcoin in the long run,” he explained. Analysts via email.
On the other hand, ADA’s weekly gains outpaced DOGE, ETH, and BTC, with rumors ramping up ahead of Friday’s release of the smart contract implementation schedule.
