Ether boosted as Bitcoin dips

Ethereum was the biggest mover among the cryptocurrency majors in the last 24 hours after climbing almost 5% to around $2,218.

At one point in May, during the crypto bull run, its average fees had risen to nearly $70, but the market correction has seen it plummet.

Cardano (ADA), climbed 2 cents to $1.35, a 1% increase. It is 4% higher than its value seven days ago.

Meme coin Dogecoin (DOGE) remains at around 25c after a small 2% boost which puts its seven-day price up 6%.

Binance Coin (BNB) dropped almost 1% to $294 but is 2% up in a week.
