Bitcoin2026-10-01 05:12:04Bitcoin rose more than 42% in Q3 while Ether jumped about 71% as the market turns to Q4Bitcoin and Ether posted a sharp rebound in the third quarter of 2026, according to Blockcast, which cited CoinGlass data and market figures. BTC climbed from roughly $58,500 to the $83,000-$85,000 range during the quarter, putting its gain at about 42% to 43%, its strongest quarterly showing since the first quarter of 2024. Ether outpaced Bitcoin, rising from around $1,570 to about $2,686-$2,687, for a quarterly increase of roughly 71.2%. The report said the recovery followed steep losses in the first half of the year. Bitcoin had declined 22.1% in Q1 and 14.2% in Q2 before returning to positive territory in Q3. Ether had fallen about 29% in Q1 and 25% in Q2, and despite the strong third-quarter rally, it still had not fully recovered its first-half losses by the end of September. Blockcast also pointed to renewed ETF inflows as a major support for the quarter. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw about $2.4 billion in net inflows in the last full week of September, one of the largest weekly inflow totals since October 2025, while U.S. spot Ether ETFs drew about $1.75 billion in August. As the calendar moves into October, the market is now watching whether historically strong fourth-quarter seasonality can hold up against high Treasury yields, oil prices, and geopolitical risk.50
