Cryptocurrency analytics firm CryptoQuant has published a detailed analysis of Ethereum’s recent performance, outlining several bullish indicators despite it lagging behind Bitcoin’s recent rally.
Following the US elections, Bitcoin has seen a significant rally, even approaching all-time highs. Ethereum, on the other hand, has struggled to maintain its momentum. However, CryptoQuant’s analysis shows that fundamental metrics suggest investors remain optimistic about Ethereum’s long-term potential.
According to the analytics firm, Ethereum’s Estimated Leverage Ratio remains at the highest level, indicating that investors continue to use high leverage in their derivatives trading. This metric demonstrates investors’ confidence in Ethereum’s future performance, suggesting a continued risk appetite.
According to CryptoQuant, Ethereum’s funding rates are moderately positive, suggesting that long positions are dominant without posing a large-scale liquidation risk.
The Korea Premium Index, which measures the price difference between Ethereum on South Korean exchanges and global markets, has turned positive with a significant premium. The trend suggests growing interest from South Korean investors, a market often considered a proxy for crypto sentiment in Asia, according to analysts.
