$ETH is up +3.89% from the Oct 8 low at $2,407.08, now trading at $2,500.72 If you had longed it at the Oct 8 low with $100k at 10x, you'd be up +$38,902 right now Why it moved Leverage got flushed first. CoinDesk on Oct 9 reported about $356 million in ether liquidations over 24 hours versus about $298 million for bitcoin, roughly six times the damage relative to market size inside a roughly $1.19 billion crypto wipeout. Fund demand stayed soft through the bounce. TokenPost on Oct 9 put U.S. spot Ether ETF net outflows near $72.5 million, stretching the net-outflow streak to eight straight sessions even as price clawed back toward $2,500. Yields set the broader tone. TradingPedia on Oct 9 said ether traded near $2,470 after slipping below $2,500 amid higher oil and Treasury yields that briefly touched multi-decade highs before Trump's Iran walk-back eased some of the pressure. What I'm watching next Above: the 24h high at $2,570.58, then the Oct 2 high at $2,776.30. Below: the $2,407.08 base from Oct 8. Most people only see ether after it reclaims a round number. The liquidation print and the eight-day ETF outflow streak were already public while price was still sitting on the Oct 8 low. Still watching from the sidelines? Every move in this post was there for anyone looking early. Stop reading recaps after the pump. Join before it's too late: t.me/+Z3NwL0DSnmk0ZjI0
