"F2Pool, which according to data from Blockchain.info has processed the most bitcoin blocks in the past 24 hours, has long operated a mining pool focused on Ethereum"
Haha, now you know why Eth is getting pumped. They're raising it to unload every single one of their mined Ethers at insane bubble prices before the BTC halving and the Eth DAO dump causes Eth to crash. Then they take those Eth profits and use them to pump BTC for their larger and more important BTC mining farm.
But what if this is a market-driven bubble ? What if stays to this 0,03
BTC range, after a new consolidation ? Some predicted that it will go back to 0,01
BTC, but nothing ever happened...
Too much euphoria always attracts bad luck. The ETH party will probably end with big bad news. Polo getting hacked, SEC going after Vitalik's butt for unauthorized DAO creation, insiders dumping their eth, BTC halving, you name it.
