Whereas Bitcoin has long become the global leader in the cryptocurrency industry, Ethereum’s recent increase shows that rivalry still exists as the cryptocurrency sector develops.
Ethereum has recently hit the $ 3000 mark, when the Token Ether has quadruple in price since the start of this year. The world’s first blockchain is a competitive industry.
One thing Ethereum is distinguished from Bitcoin is that it offers both the NFT and the decentralized finance sectors (DeFi) with huge growth over the last six months.

However, Bitcoin still has a far bigger market cap of $1,1 tons compared with Ethereum’s $390,000,000, but with more investors and ventures purchasing Ethereum’s blockchain this could definitely alter. Indeed, the European Investment Bank (EIB) revealed its plans last week to start a digital network bond sales of 100 million dollars.
Ethereum rally
One Ether is currently worth $3,291 at the time of writing, while Ethereum has seen a 10 percent increase in value on Monday alone.
Another aspect that led to the latest Ethereum rally was that the next generation, known as Ethereum 2.0, came to life last year and the coinbase Cyrpto-Money exchange was listed on the NASDAQ exchange under the ticker COIN last month.
Ethereum was trading at less than $1000 a coin at the end of last year before it shot up in January 2021. Now that Ethereum has reached 3.000 dollars, some investors wonder whether cryptocurrency is continuing to rally at 5.000 dollars. On the other hand, bitcoin has not recovered as it has dropped by nearly $64,870 in the middle of April record.
Only time will tell whether Ethereum is continuously gaining ground or whether we will see another similar market correction in 2017.
