#ETH often behaves like a high-beta major crypto asset: it may follow BTC’s broad direction, but its moves can be amplified when Ethereum-specific factors matter—such as network upgrades, ETF-related flows, DeFi activity, staking demand, transaction fees, and activity on Layer-2 networks.
#ETH can lag BTC when market attention is concentrated on Bitcoin, then catch up if capital rotates into large-cap altcoins.
Higher network usage can support demand for ETH because it is used for gas fees and staking, but fee revenue and activity alone do not guarantee a price increase.
ETH is also sensitive to regulation, macro conditions, and changes in the ETH/BTC ratio, which shows whether ETH is strengthening or weakening relative to #BTC.
