Ethereum showed signs of recovery after testing the $2,400 zone and surged by 4%, outpacing Bitcoin. Does this mean the altcoin could challenge BTC’s dominance? Ethereum [ETH] showed signs of strength, outpacing Bitcoin with a gain of over 4% in the last 24 hours. Historically, a bullish divergence between Ethereum and Bitcoin has been a strong indicator of a price trend reversal for ETH.

In short, this comparison reveals a stark contrast in market sentiment between ETH and BTC. While Bitcoin struggles to break above the $60K resistance, Ethereum has surged approximately 4% since yesterday. However, AMBCrypto notes that to solidify this thesis, on-chain data must align with Ethereum’s dominance. So,…
