Ethereum reclaimed $2,500 this week and pushed its share of the crypto market back above 11%, according to data cited in Cryptomat's entity digest. It landed in the same 48 hours Vitalik Buterin previewed a transaction-format overhaul under EIP-8141 and spot Bitcoin ETFs booked their strongest inflow day since January. The tape looks clean. The story underneath is messier.
ETH is trading with a bid it hasn't had since spring. The Cryptomat entity digest flags a move back through $2,500 and dominance north of 11%, driven by what the desk is reading as fresh institutional demand rather than retail chasing. The context matters. CryptoPotato reported Thursday was the strongest day for spot Bitcoin ETFs since January, close to $1B in net inflows, and ether products kept their own streak alive alongside it. That's the third week in a row ether ETFs haven't broken. Zoom out and the setup is a familiar one: BTC leads, ETH follows on a lag, and the ratio compresses. What's different this cycle is that ETH is grabbing dominance back while BTC is still bid, not on a BTC drawdown. That's a healthier tape. It's also a fragile one, because the sentiment side is already pinned.
