$ETH #EtherGains70.9%InQ3
Ethereum gained 70.9% in Q3 2026, its best quarter since Q1 2021, when it jumped 160.7%. It went from around $1,569 at the end of June to above $2,700 by late September. Bitcoin had a strong quarter too, up around 43-44%, its second-best Q3 on record, but ETH beat it by a wide margin.
What's interesting is that even after a rally this big, ETH is still down about 9% from where it started 2026, and 45% below its all-time high of $4,950. There's still a lot of room between here and the old peak.
The pace has slowed though. August alone gained 29%, September only added about 10%. ETF demand has been a real driver, $1.75 billion flowed into spot ETH ETFs in August, the strongest month since August 2025. But not everyone's holding, a wallet with a position dating back to 2023 moved 112,000 ETH, around $300 million, to Bitfinex in the last week of September, which looks like profit-taking.
For traders, holding the $2,672 to $2,708 zone could open the path toward $3,000. A drop back into the $2,350 to $2,400 range would be the short-term support to watch.
