The $BTC/$ETH price ratio has hit its highest level since July 2022
its highest level since July 2022 as Bitcoin outperforms the broader crypto market, according to a recent report by Kaiko. The price ratio serves as an indicator of BTC's dominance relative to altcoin markets. It has historically been an important tool for gauging investor sentiment. After Ethereum exploded in popularity in 2017, the idea of flippening has been a topic of debate for years.

Crypto trading platform Kraken announced in early February that it will wind down its retail ETH staking business in the U.S. as part of its settlement with the SEC. Moreover, the New York attorney general argued that the native token of the second largest proof-of-stake blockchain is a security in a case against crypto exchange KuCoin. SEC Chair Gary Gensler has also repeatedly There is also uncertainty around the market impact of the much-hyped Shanghai upgrade, which will enable staking withdrawals.
The report also shows that crypto trade volumes have reached a four-month high amid a broad market rally dominated by Bitcoin. On March 14, trade volumes on the 18 most liquid centralized exchanges soared to $51 billion, hitting four-month highs.
