Ethereum’s price has been rising significantly, indicating a bullish trend in the market. The asset has surpassed the $2,900 mark and shows strong momentum towards surpassing its annual peak price of $3,600.

Institutions such as Fidelity, Ark 21Shares, Grayscale, VanEck, Invesco, Galaxy, and Hashdex are looking to enter the Ethereum market after the success of similar products for Bitcoin.
