<p>Move over, Bitcoin; there’s a new crypto sheriff in town. Ethereum is strutting its stuff, ready to bask in the limelight after Bitcoin and its newly-launched ETFs hogged the spotlight in January. Both cryptocurrencies are neck-and-neck in the race, with nearly a 2% increase this month, but Ethereum is gearing up to sprint ahead.<a href="https://archive.ph/8e12U#selection-2279.0-2286.0" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank"> </a></p>

<p>Ethereum isn’t just sitting pretty; it’s poised for a breakout. Investors, who’ve been eyeing Bitcoin’s slow and steady flow via institutionalized ETFs, are now turning their heads towards Ethereum and altcoins. Darius Tabatabai from Vertex Protocol hits the nail on the head: as the market stabilizes, the real action is shifting towards Ethereum. With its network upgrades and potential ETF approval on the horizon, Ethereum is the high beta play investors are betting on.</p>
<p>February is Ethereum’s time to shine. Historically, it’s been a strong month for both Bitcoin and Ethereum. But this time, Ethereum might just have the edge. It’s finished February in the green six times since its inception, boasting an average gain of 12.97%. Bitcoin’s not far behind, but Ethereum is showing it’s not just a one-trick pony.</p>
<p>Ethereum’s recent surge to a 20-month high post-<a href="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/uk-confiscates-1b-bitcoin-chinese-fraudsters/" data-type="post" data-id="455982" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a> ETF approval is a testament to its growing appeal. Investors, after cashing in on Bitcoin, are now flocking to Ethereum, looking forward to what’s next. With the SEC’s decision on spot Ethereum ETF applications expected in May, the anticipation is palpable. Big names like BlackRock and Ark are lining up for approval, and Ethereum is all set to follow in Bitcoin’s pre-ETF uptrend footsteps.</p>

<p>Ethereum’s allure doesn’t stop at being a digital currency; it’s the backbone of many altcoins and the heart of blockchain’s growth areas like stablecoins, NFTs, decentralized finance, gaming, and AI. As Jeff Dorman of Arca points out, Ethereum’s staying power is undeniable, and its competition with Bitcoin is just heating up.</p>
<p>While Bitcoin may still be the poster child of the crypto world, Ethereum is the one pushing boundaries. Its next big update, “Dencun,” aims to make Layer 2 transactions cheaper. This is not just a technical update; it’s Ethereum flexing its muscles to show it can keep up with cheaper and faster alternatives like Solana.</p>
<p>Ethereum’s growth is also bolstered by the rising popularity of altcoins. Many of these run on the Ethereum blockchain, making Ethereum the go-to for investors looking to dive into the altcoin world. As Jason Urban from Galaxy Digital points out, Ethereum is well-positioned to benefit from this altcoin surge, especially among traditional finance folks who might not be keen on trading a variety of altcoins.</p>
<p>January has been a mixed bag for altcoins, but Ethereum has managed to stay its course with a 2% gain. While Bitcoin took a dip below $40,000 for the first time this year, altcoins rallied, and Ethereum, although a bit stagnant, showed resilience. This resilience is key in the volatile world of cryptocurrencies.</p>
<p>Ethereum’s bullish outlook is more than just market speculation; it’s backed by strong technical indicators and on-chain metrics. The bulls have pushed Ethereum above moving averages, but it’s facing resistance at the $2,400 mark. The real game-changer will be a break above $2,400, potentially catapulting Ethereum to $2,700 and beyond.</p>
