Ethereum rallied past $4,800 on Friday, reaching its highest price since late 2021 and coming within 1% of the cryptocurrency’s record peak of $4,878.26.
The second-largest digital asset by market value jumped from roughly $4,400 to $4,800 in less than three hours, a surge of about 9%. Market-data provider CoinGecko reported a 6.6% increase in the most recent hour alone as buying accelerated into the afternoon session.
