Ethereum Price Falters Around $430 as ETH2 Testnet Experiences Outage
Ethereum’s price has begun to falter after surging higher late last week. The cryptocurrency trades at $430 as of this article’s writing, which is a few percent below and a few percent above the local highs and lows, respectively. ETH is flat in the past 24 hours, trading down by a negligible 0.15%. The stagnation in the value of the leading cryptocurrency comes as the Ethereum 2.0 (ETH2) testnet has experienced an outage. It is unclear if the price action and outage are correlated, but ETH2 is a fundamental driver.
