Ethereum rose 10.19% to $1,831.36 on Monday, delivering its strongest one‑day percentage gain since February 25 2026 and lifting its market cap to $219.60 B, or 9.60% of the total crypto market [1].

| 24h % Move | +10.19% |
| Market Cap | $219.60 B (9.60% of total) |
| Catalyst | Largest daily gain since Feb 25 2026 |

## What drove the move  
The price jump coincided with a surge in trading volume, which reached $16.19 B in the preceding 24 hours—about 18.69% of all crypto trading volume that day. The heightened activity helped push Ethereum’s market cap toward its current level, still far below its all‑time high of $583.89 B but markedly higher than recent levels [1]. The rise also came as Bitcoin posted a 4.46% gain, suggesting broader bullish sentiment across major assets.

## Recent range and on‑chain context  
Ethereum traded within a $1,709.35–$1,831.36 band over the prior 24 hours, and its 7‑day price window stretched from $1,605.40 to $1,831.49, indicating the current level sits near the top of its weekly range [1]. Despite the rally, the token remains 63.05% below its all‑time high of $4,955.90 set on August 24 2025, underscoring the distance to previous peaks.

## Market share snapshot  
Ethereum’s $219.60 B market cap now represents 9.60% of the overall cryptocurrency market, while Bitcoin accounts for 58.54% with a $1,338.76 B market cap. Tether’s stablecoin market cap stands at $186.43 B (8.15% of the total) [1].

## What to watch  
- **Resistance:** $1,900–$1,950 levels could test further upside.  
- **Supply dynamics:** Monitor any large‑wallet movements or upcoming token unlocks that might affect circulating supply.  
- **Regulatory cues:** U.S. Fed decisions or U.S.–Iran peace developments, noted in market commentary, could influence sentiment and volume.

The 10% surge highlights renewed buying pressure on Ethereum, yet the token remains well below its historic highs and must clear higher resistance zones to sustain momentum. Whether the current rally translates into a longer‑term trend will depend on on‑chain activity and broader macro‑economic signals.
