Ethereum hits new ATH, ETH futures about to launch

On Feb. 2, the second-largest coin by market cap, ETH, finally broke out to reach a new all-time high of $1,567 per coin after spending about two weeks in a range between $1,300 and $1,400. This was after hitting the previous all-time high of $1,467.

Interest in ETH has been kept hot by the launch of the zero phase of Ethereum 2.0 in early December, with stakers continuing to lock their ETH in the deposit contract (with a total value locked close to $4.1 billion already).

The second major driver for investors to acquire ETH and expect its further rise is the upcoming launch of ETH-based futures on CME. This Chicago-based exchange caters to institutional investors.
