Data Analysis
Measured by Clometrix
Ethereum's volatility ratio was 3.90x, against 1.75x for a typical GDP Report release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 6.79x, against a typical 1.78x. That is more than twice what this release usually does. Both compare the quarter hour of the release with an ordinary quarter hour that same day, where 1.00x is no change: volatility is how far the price ranged, volume how much traded.
How Ethereum moved
Ethereum was at $1,796.94 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was 1.08% lower, and an hour later 1.36% lower. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 2.33% of its price, against 1.22% in the hour before.
The release
Released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis on 30 April 2025 at 8:30 AM EDT. The Gross Domestic Product Report came in at -0.3% for 2025 1st Quarter, against 2.4% in 2024 4th Quarter. The economy's output is falling, after a rise.
What made it matter
Since 2021, GDP Report releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved Ethereum more than those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 2.32x across 16, against 1.65x across 52. This one came out 7 days before the Federal Reserve's 7 May rate decision. Its own ratio of 3.90x compares with 2.32x for those, so it moved the price more than its circumstances alone would suggest.
Its record
Across 68 GDP Report releases since 2021, Ethereum's median volatility ratio is 1.75x.
About Gross Domestic Product Report
The GDP report is one of the BEA's most crucial outputs. It tells us the monetary value of all the finished goods and services produced within a country's borders in a specific time period. GDP gives the public an indication of an economy's size. Moreover, when compared against prior periods, this data can reveal whether the economy is expanding (producing more goods and services) or contracting (registering declining output). The direction of GDP helps central banks determine whether it is necessary to intervene with monetary policy or not.
