That's the question I asked today. It doesn't seem coincidental that Vitalik has been recently concerned about ETH scaling (making it the topic of his speech where he also slammed Craig Wright rather unprofessionally during Roger Ver's panel discussion).
Ethereum also decided to do a coincap (it would seem in a bid to keep the coins value up.)
