Ether Price Climbs to $3,327 as Ethereum Outpaces Bitcoin in Price Action Amid Capital Concentrating in ETH

Ethereum (ETH) has outperformed Bitcoin (BTC) in terms of price action in the most recent weeks. According to data revealed today by market analyst Crypto Patel, Ether has surged its price to its strongest level (currently at $3,339.62) since late November, leading to robust market gains against Bitcoin, which currently hovers at $92,695.08.

Since November 21, 2025, when the two crypto assets saw their lowest prices ($2,626 and $80,659), Ethereum has experienced stronger surges than Bitcoin. This shows that funds are rotating into ETH from the largest cryptocurrency.

Strategic Ether Accumulation and Market Implications

Over the past three weeks, ETH outpaced BTC in both price movements and corporate financial inflows, reinforcing the narrative of money circulation from BTC into ETH and major altcoins. Data shared by the analyst indicates that Ethereum has been experiencing stronger accumulations than Bitcoin during the recent correction period, mainly spurred by institutional appetite.

As BTC continues to hold strong above the $90k mark, a reflection of ongoing confidence in the wider crypto market, whales (also commonly recognized as institutional investors) are making strategic moves elsewhere, silently loading up on ETH. With Ether continuing to trade at what several market participants consider as a market discount, big investors are capitalizing on the lower prices to build up their investment portfolios.

Earlier this week, on Monday, two major institutional players (Amber Group and Metalpha) conducted a massive ETH accumulation strategy collectively worth $28.2 million from Binance. Crypto market maker Amber Group withdrew 6,000 ETH worth $18.8 million from Binance while Hong-based digital asset manager Metalpha pulled out 3,000 ETH valued at $9.4 million from the exchange. These strategic actions not only signal significant shifts in market dynamics but also point out that whales are massively buying ETH tokens, showing their conviction in the largest altcoin. Such accumulation patterns typically decrease the immediate selling pressure on exchanges and predict upcoming bullish moves on Ethereum.

ETH Approaches $3,300 Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

Today, ETH further extended its price gains, currently standing at $3,339, up 6.5% and 8.4% over the past 24 hours and seven days, respectively. The catalyst behind the upturn includes whale purchasing activity and positive macroeconomic conditions, especially a potential Fed rate cut. The latest data reported today by CryptoQuant identified that large investors bought almost 400k ETH between Sunday and Monday as the US Fed is anticipated to cut interest rates by 25 bps this week.

Today, Ethereum climbed above $3,300 for the first time since November 13 as the expected interest rate cuts sparked bullish sentiment across prominent crypto assets.
