Ethereum chart, February 12: ETH/USD retains a positive tone  - confluence detector

ETH/USD reclaimed $121.00 after a short-lived dip to $118.12. The second largest coin with the market value of $12.6B is consolidating gains after a steady growth at the end of the previous week. 

Ethereum is moving together with the market as there is no critical fundamental news that might have influenced price momentum. 

Meanwhile, the Ethereum network has seen the reduction of new coins created daily. This is a result of a difficulty bomb activated ahead of the upcoming Constantinople upgrade.
