Bitcoin vs Ethereum Weekly Showdown: Price Moves, Major Wins and Key News

The first week of September brought quite a challenging price action for Bitcoin and Ethereum, depending on their demand, market trends, and macroeconomic events. While the ups and downs are momentary and result from various factors,  they also hint at the future trajectory. As a result, let’s discuss BTC and ETH’s price moves, top news, and major milestones.

Bitcoin vs Ethereum Price Moves Over the Week

Throughout the week (September 1 to September 6), Bitcoin, Ethereum, and the rest of the crypto market faced turbulence. Starting with BTC, it has surged 2% on the weekly frame, with the price moving between $107.25k–$113.39k, currently trading at $110.7k. Similarly, ETH price ranged from $4.26k to $4.49k, maintaining a 1.79% dip over the week.

This happened as the volatility remained high over the U.S. economic data releases, including Jobless Claims Data and more. Due to this, investors were cautious of their trades due to the data’s impact on the Fed’s interest rate decision.

Top Bitcoin News and Milestones of the Week

Although BTC faced turbulence, its recovery above the $110k mark remains notable this week. Along with these milestones, the ETF demand also returned in the early week, where the U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a net inflow of $333M on September 2 and $301M on the following day. Over the week, the net flow turned to +$246M, significant yet nearly half of the previous week.

In these 7 days, MARA added 705 BTC to its treasury, Strategy bought 4,048 tokens and more, showcasing continuous institutional demand. Even the regulatory developments began to move forward as the SEC and CFTC announced a joint roundtable on September 29.

With the crypto roundtable, their aim is to harmonize their regulatory frameworks, bring clarity on U.S. crypto regulations, and more.

Top Ethereum News and Milestones of the Week

U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs saw a major decline in inflows, ending the week on -$787M net flow. Notably, these ETH ETFs were dominating the market before and even surpassed BTC in terms of inflows on multiple occasions, but trends changed this time.

However, its price remained relatively stable compared to the other assets due to bullish Ethereum news. It includes Bloomberg’s James Seyffart’s prediction that Altcoin Season is underway. He cited the aggressive treasury accumulation by major firms like BitMine, which added 38,708 ETH ($167M) just days after a $358M buy.

With this move, the ETH treasury holdings rose above $8B.

Bitcoin vs Ethereum: Who Won This Week?

As the first week of September comes to an end, Jim Cramer’s bumpy market prediction for this month seems to come true. The most important thing to note is that there was quite a bit of a shift in investors’ sentiments, which helped the BTC ETFs’ inflows while pushing the ETH ones to outflows.

In that stance, Bitcoin outperformed Ethereum, as it also maintained a surge and net inflows. However, it is also important to note that ETH showed higher stability before eventually losing to bears in the end.
