Ether (ETH) price experienced a 7% decline between Oct. 6 and Oct. 12, hitting a seven-month low at $1,520. Although there was a slight rebound to $1,550 on Oct. 13, it appears that investor confidence and interest in Ethereum are waning, as indicated by multiple metrics.
Some may argue that this movement reflects a broader disinterest in cryptocurrencies, evident in the fact that Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL) searches for “Ethereum” have reached their lowest point in three years. However, Ether has underperformed the overall altcoin market capitalization by 15% since July.
