Most people look at Ethereum in euros or dollars. That's understandable, as it's what we're used to. But what happens when you compare Ethereum not to traditional currencies but to Bitcoin? Suddenly, the picture changes dramatically—and it's not particularly rosy.
On a chart expressing Ethereum's value in Bitcoin, a clear decline is visible. At the end of 2021, 1 ether was worth about 0.085 bitcoin; now, it's only around 0.024. This means Ethereum has lost over 70% of its value relative to Bitcoin in just two and a half years.
The chart shows a pattern of lower highs and lower lows, indicating a prolonged downward trend. Ethereum's dominance as the leading innovator in blockchain is also being challenged by competitors like Solana, which offer faster transactions and lower costs.
However, there's a glimmer of hope. The recent Pectra upgrade, Ethereum's most ambitious improvement since its transition to a more energy-efficient system in 2022, could help it regain ground.
If you own Ethereum, it's wise to monitor its value relative to Bitcoin, not just fiat currencies. For traders, timely insights are invaluable—tools like the BLOX app provide weekly updates and technical analyses.
