Currently stabilizing around $3,800, the market reaction remains mixed, with some optimism fueled by its 28% increase over the previous week. Traders' cautious approach hints at a potential 'sell-the-news' sentiment following the historic approvals.

Ethereum Fails to Break $4,000 Barrier After SEC's ETF Approvals

Despite the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) granting historic approvals for eight Ethereum-based exchange-traded funds (ETFs), Ethereum has not breached the $4,000 mark.

Ethereum ETFs: Sell the News?

Ethereum, ranking second in market capitalization among cryptocurrencies, recorded a modest 0.65% increase in the last 24 hours. Over the previous week, however, it gained more than 28%, reflecting some market optimism. Despite these gains, the anticipated push past the $4,000 threshold has yet to materialize.

Ethereum Price Performance.

The reaction within the broader Ethereum ecosystem was mixed. Pepe, for instance, reached a new all-time high of $0.00001576 immediately following the ETF approvals but then declined by over 8%. Arbitrum (ARB) also fell more than 3% after its initial increase. Conversely, Lido DAO (LDO) bucked the trend, advancing over 12% in the last 24 hours.
