Ethereum’s Share:

Ethereum released an update in 2020. With ETH 2.0 in business, analysts expected 2021 to be the year of ETH. Certainly, we have an excellent start here.

The price of ether entered triple figures in December 2020. It secured a spot in the top 100 assets of the world in January. Moreover, this week Ether has reached the all-time high value.

Ethereum offers much more than a medium for value exchange. It is a decentralized platform where business owners can build their own applications using smart protocols. This utilization factor will take ether’s price to the next level in the coming months.

Crypto’s bullish rally will once again make the news attracting new investors. This will likely decrease the volatility of the market. Thus, we can expect the cryptocurrency industry to hold strong footing this year in the financial arena.
