On 2nd May, ETH hit a new all-time high of $2,975 even as BTC struggled to reclaim $58,000. The rise was attributed to European Investment Bank (EIB) announcing a 'digital bond' sale on the Ethereum blockchain.
It is a two-year, $121 million digital bond. The sale would be led by Goldman Sachs, Banco Santander, and Societe Generale.
A note published by JP Morgan to investors stated that ETH outperforming BTC is down to improvements in liquidity and a higher turnover on the public Ethereum blockchain. Furthermore, analysts say that institutional investors are looking to diversify their portfolios and Ether is the natural next pick, which could be the reason for its consistent rise.
