The second-ranked cryptocurrency Ethereum (ETH) saw a significant drop in its price value as the coin’s price decreased to $311 from its 2020’s peak value of $322 following the Bitcoin price spike. ETH is currently trading at $309 at the press time. Along with Ethereum, some DeFi tokens which were showing outshining performance in the market such as YFI and Aave also witnessed a price rejection.
