Amid Ethereum's recent price decline, major investors bought over 130,000 ETH in May. According to CoinMarketCap, these large-scale purchases highlight continued market confidence in the cryptocurrency’s potential, despite its recent volatility.
Not only does this indicate a possible Ethereum's price recovery, but it also affects correlated assets such as Solana, which tend to react sympathetically to ETH's price action, according to the web-site’s analysts.
As noted by Ted Pillows of OKX, Ethereum stands a better chance than other altcoins at gaining institutional adoption. He attributes this primarily to ETH’s undisputed dominance in smart contract programmability. However, CoinMarketCap reports that smaller investors remain somewhat cautious about the token’s long-term prospects.
