Why Is Ethereum Rising Today? ETH Outshines Bitcoin in Broad Crypto Rally
Ethereum's price surged over 17% in a day, outperforming Bitcoin, driven by improved global liquidity, ETF inflows, and a short squeeze. The U.S. Treasury's announcement to expand long-term bond buybacks boosted liquidity expectations, sparking a rally in risk assets. Bitcoin led the gains, with funds rotating to Ethereum due to its earlier underperformance, smaller market cap, and bearish derivatives positioning, offering more room for a rebound. The article emphasizes that this rise is primarily macro-driven, not due to Ethereum-specific upgrades or network news.

Swift, HSBC, and Standard Chartered completed the first interbank real-time transaction on Swift's blockchain ledger on August 19, 2026, linking two separate tokenized deposit systems.

The pilot involved 17 banks across six continents, aiming to test interoperability and coordination rather than fully on-chain settlement.
