ETH Volatility Analysis for GDP Report, 25th June 2026

Data Analysis

Measured by Clometrix

Ethereum's volatility ratio was 3.66x, against 1.75x for a typical GDP Report release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 3.16x, 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 $1,627.12 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was 0.62% higher, and an hour later 0.45% higher. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 1.43% of its price, against 0.65% in the hour before.

The Gross Domestic Product Report came out on 25 June 2026 at 8:30 AM EDT.

It arrived at the same moment as Durable Goods Orders, Durable Goods Orders Excluding Transportation, Personal Income and Outlays, Personal Consumption Expenditures, Core Personal Consumption Expenditures, Initial Jobless Claims and Continued Jobless Claims, so the reaction measured on this page belongs to all of them together.

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 was not within two weeks of a Fed decision. Its own ratio of 3.66x compares with 1.65x 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.
