Bullish Factors Supporting Ether’s Price

This is bullish for Ethereum in the longer term, as the choosing of a public, rather than private, blockchain, and over alternative layer 1s prove that in fact Ethereum’s security, liveness guarantees and strong developer base are enough to maintain its position as smart contract platform leader, for now at least.

According to Luke Nolan, a research associate at CoinShares, the announcement of BlackRock’s tokenized fund on Ethereum last month is considered a bullish factor that could significantly influence the digital asset’s performance in the long run.

Ether sentiment is reflecting this: historically, when ether has been a hated asset, it has gone on to outperform bitcoin for a number of weeks or even months. The last few times it has flirted with this level, it has bounced and outperformed by up to 20% in the weeks after.
