ETH Boosted By Tornado Cash Ruling – 10X Research 

The strong spot ETH ETF inflows come during a surge in Ethereum’s price. CoinMarketCap data shows ETH is trading at $3,569.72 as of 2:51 a.m. EST following a more than 6% surge in the altcoin’s price over the last week. Bitcoin’s fallen almost 3% over the same period.

10X Research founder Markus Thielen said the rise in the Ethereum price to above the $3.5K mark was given a boost by Tornado Cash’s recent court victory. 

“As Ethereum remains the leading blockchain for DeFi, this decision is viewed positively for the broader DeFi ecosystem and other protocols, particularly on the Ethereum network,” said founder Markus Thielen, founder of 10X Research. “This could have enormous implications.”

Reports that crypto advocate Paul Atkins could replace the anti-crypto and outgoing US SEC Chair Gary Gensler have also contributed to the positive sentiment around ETH, which currently lacks legal clarity from the regulator regarding its securities status.
