Ethereum News Today: Institutional Appetite and ETF Frenzy Drive Crypto Rebound: BTC, ETH Climb Past $115k
The cryptocurrency market demonstrated resilience in late October 2025 as BitcoinBTC-- (BTC) and EthereumETH-- (ETH) rebounded from a significant sell-off triggered by U.S.-China trade tensions. Bitcoin surged to $115,127.37, while Ethereum reclaimed $4,154.14, driven by institutional inflows and a "buy the dip" mentality among investors [1]. The rebound followed a $19–$20 billion liquidation event, with Ethereum's exchange supply hitting a nine-year low and daily decentralized exchange (DEX) volume surging 47% to $33.9 billion [2]. Analysts attributed the recovery to robust ETF inflows, with Bitcoin ETFs recording $2.67 billion and Ethereum ETFs $338 million in the week leading up to the crash [1].
Ethereum's price trajectory showed strong technical support, with on-chain data indicating institutional accumulation pulling ETHETH-- into cold storage and staking rewards incentivizing long-term holding [2]. The cryptocurrency's recovery aligned with historical patterns, mirroring its Q3 2020 rally, which preceded over 100% gains in Q4 2020 [2]. Standard Chartered raised its 2025 ETH target to $7,500, citing record ETF buying and stablecoin growth post-GENIUS Act [2]. However, Ethereum's market capitalization of $500 billion limited its upside potential compared to early-stage projects with smaller valuations [2].
Bitcoin's rebound was bolstered by a $15.3 billion trading volume on October 13, with institutional demand outpacing miner production, creating a structural supply deficit [6]. The U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs, including BlackRock's IBIT, accumulated $160 billion in assets, with cumulative net inflows reaching $5.95 billion in early October [7]. Analysts projected Bitcoin's price could reach $130,000–$138,000 if it broke above $125,000, supported by a 200-day moving average at $110,000 [6].
Cardano (ADA) also showed signs of stabilization, with whale accumulation of 140 million ADAADA-- ($89.6 million) and institutional custody exceeding $1.2 billion . On-chain metrics indicated growing confidence in ADA's long-term potential, despite a 20% price drop. Retail traders and whales continued buying during the downturn, with the Money Flow Index (MFI) showing capital inflows despite the decline . Institutional adoption, including Grayscale's registration of a CardanoADA-- ETF, further underscored ADA's appeal .
The market's macroeconomic backdrop played a critical role in the recovery. Easing trade tensions between the U.S. and China and expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts reduced volatility and supported risk-on sentiment [5]. Bitcoin's role as a hedge against inflation and dollar debasement remained a key driver, with institutional investors viewing it as a "digital gold" asset [7]. Ethereum's staking yields and DeFi growth positioned it as a hybrid between growth equity and commodity, attracting traditional finance players [5].
Technical indicators confirmed the bullish momentum for both BTCBTC-- and ETH. Bitcoin's RSI and MACD signals indicated positive momentum, while Ethereum's RSI (14) exited oversold territory, aligning with a 20% price rebound [5]. For Ethereum, holding above $4,100 was deemed crucial for maintaining the uptrend, with targets at $4,700 and $5,500 in Q4 2025 [5].
In summary, the post-crash rebound highlighted the cryptocurrency market's resilience and institutional confidence. Bitcoin and Ethereum's recoveries were supported by ETF inflows, whale accumulation, and favorable macroeconomic conditions, while ADA's institutional adoption and on-chain activity signaled long-term potential. Analysts remain cautiously optimistic, emphasizing the importance of monitoring geopolitical developments, ETF inflows, and technical levels for future price action.
