Each of us has a different way of thinking and that would be great in a discussion. If you say Ethereum is very emerging and growing so well this year, I don't argue, but Ethereum's price movement has no effect when Bitcoin's price rises to $52K.
Let's look at this time when all coins have a red graph, there is one coin whose graph is still green, namely Solana Coin. Or what if we put our minds to it by calling this Solana's year.
Maybe Ethereum price is not moving while Bitcoin is bullish and making a significant price increase caused by Ethereum already rising in price few days ago.
But unfortunately the price of Ethereum was also going down because bitcoin is going down as well. This means the price of altcoin even a coin like Ethereum that has big market capitalisation was still easily influenced.
But, solana was still rising as you said and it's already giving good return of investment and probably will give a lot more return of investment in the future.
