Ethereum Edges Higher on Vitalik Buterin's Privacy Protocol Endorsement

Ethereum's price has risen to $2,480.94, gaining 1.26% since the previous close and reaching near its day's high.

This increase is underpinned by positive technical signals and ongoing institutional demand, as well as support from Vitalik Buterin's endorsement of new privacy protocol frameworks on Ethereum.

The current price is above major moving averages, confirming sustained bullish momentum across multiple timeframes. Momentum and trend indicators also confirm intraday buyer dominance without immediate overbought risk.
