Ether plunges 13% while Bitcoin pushes BTC dominance to 2022 high — More pain ahead?

Ethereum’s native token, Ether (ETH), plunged to its lowest level in almost two months against (BTC) as a crypto market sell-off intensified on May 12.

The trading pair fell by 7.5% to 0.0663 in the past 24 hours. The downside move came as a part of a correction that began May 11 when the pair traded at the local high of 0.0768. That pushed Ether down against BTC by up to 13.75%.
