🔥 $BTC and Ethereum Face the Same Week. The ETF Tape Is Already Split. Friday favoured $ETH ,This week tests whether that demand survives the headlines. On September 11, U.S. spot Ether ETFs attracted $216.4 million, while Bitcoin funds lost $13.2 million, marking their fourth consecutive outflow session, according to Farside figures reported.. That shows divergent fund demand. Establishing that the same institutions sold BTC to buy ETH would require different evidence. Tuesday, September 15: The Senate’s schedule says the CLARITY Act cloture motion ripens at 2:15pm ET. This is a procedural milestone; final passage remains a separate question. Wednesday, September 16: U.S. retail sales arrive at 8:30am ET, followed by the Fed decision at 2pm and press conference at 2:30pm. Thursday, September 17: The Bank of England announces its decision. Friday, September 18: The Bank of Japan’s September 17–18 meeting concludes, alongside quarterly U.S. equity-index futures expiration. BTC enters this stretch with a weaker ETF bid. ETH has the stronger latest inflow reading, but both remain exposed to shifts in yields, the dollar and rate expectations. For Ethereum-linked DeFi, there is an additional question: how would the eventual market-structure framework affect services built around the network? That requires examining the final wording, rather than treating legislative progress as a universal bullish signal. The test comes after the announcements: whether fresh demand keeps arriving once investors know what policymakers actually decided. Can ETH keep attracting capital after the Fed decision; or will macro pressure overwhelm the divergence? #BTC Price Analysis# #Altcoin Season# #Macro Insights#
