Ethereum prices drop due to poor performance in June

Ethereum prices have been rebounded over the past three days as traders adjusted positions over the worst month historically.

Ethereum (ETH) has declined for three consecutive days, reaching a low of $2,500. This is a 9.8% drop from the monthly high. Despite the pullback, it is better than most altcoins, many of which have dropped by more than 15% from this month’s high.
