The article discusses the struggles faced by Ethereum (ETH) in comparison to Bitcoin (BTC). ETH has seen a decline of 33% over the past year compared to BTC and has lagged behind the overall market. The author highlights the need for positive inflows from ETFs to boost ETH, as ETH ETFs have not seen the same level of market reception as BTC ETFs. Analysts suggest that institutional interest and inflows are important for shifting ETH sentiment. The article also mentions different perspectives on the future of ETH, with some believing it has the potential for a monetary premium and others seeing more dispersion in the market. Additionally, Solana (SOL) is seen as eating into ETH's market share, and SOL, along with other L1 coins like SUI and APT, is expected to outperform ETH in a bullish environment. The role of Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum, is also discussed, with differing opinions on whether he should step aside or play a more active role. The author concludes that until more inflows to ETFs are seen, it will be difficult to be bullish on ETH.
