Implications for the Ethereum ecosystem

DeFi: The total value locked (TVL) in platforms like Aave, Uniswap, or Lido tends to rise with ETH. Higher prices lead to more collateral.

NFTs: Although the market is quieter, a strong ETH can reactivate important projects and auctions.

Layer 2: A more expensive ETH also makes the use of solutions like Arbitrum, Optimism, and Base more relevant due to their low fees.

Outlook

Solid fundamentals: Ethereum continues to lead in smart contracts and ecosystem.

Risks: Regulatory pressure in the U.S., macroeconomic events, or the sale of $ETH by large holders can influence.
