Ethereum is a more attractive investment than Bitcoin due to its lower sensitivity to macroeconomic factors. JPMorgan analysts reached this conclusion, The Independent<\/a> reports.<\/p>\n

According to experts\u2019 calculations, since the start of the year Ethereum has risen sixfold, while Bitcoin has gained 96%.<\/p>\n

As a result, the total market capitalization of the second-largest cryptocurrency has reached half that of the first.<\/p>\n

The experts forecast a further rise in this ratio. The driver will be the continued development of the DeFi<\/a>-sector and NFT<\/a>, which rely on Ethereum’s underlying technology. Meanwhile, Bitcoin remains only a means of payment, as in El Salvador<\/a>, and a store of value akin to gold, they added.<\/p>\n

“Rising bond yields and the subsequent normalization of monetary policy are exerting downward pressure on Bitcoin as a digital analogue to gold, and on the precious metal itself. Because Ethereum derives its value from applications, it seems less susceptible to this trend,”<\/em> the experts stressed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Earlier, Goldman Sachs forecasted<\/a> Ethereum to rise to $8,000 by the end of the year.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Vitalik Buterin, founder of the second-largest cryptocurrency, acknowledged the superiority of his project over Bitcoin<\/a> as a store of value.<\/p>\n
