Ethereum’s underperformance against Bitcoin, reflected in the ETH/BTC ratio hitting a four-year low, is driven by Bitcoin’s institutional dominance, Ethereum’s unclear narrative, weaker network activity, and a shift in speculative interest toward other altcoins.
This trend may persist in the near term as Bitcoin maintains its momentum and Ethereum faces competitive challenges.
