September starts with a marked contrast on crypto ETFs: Bitcoin captures $333M in inflows, while Ether suffers $135M in outflows. This movement confirms bitcoin's place as a safe haven, but the decline in overall volume ($3.93B) and net assets ($143.21B) highlights persistent caution in the crypto market. Crypto ETF flows reveal a clear divide between triumphant Bitcoin and struggling Ether. This crypto dynamic reflects a strategic repositioning by investors, strengthening confidence in Bitcoin despite the caution.

In South Korea, Tesla no longer embodies the dream of retail investors. According to Bloomberg, nearly 1.8 billion dollars vanished in four months, including 657 million in August alone, marking the largest outflow since 2019.

In August, Ethereum reached 14.98% dominance, its highest since September 2024, accompanied by a historic record. At the same time, Bitcoin fell to 58.2%, its lowest since January 2025. This shift reflects a capital reallocation within the crypto market: whales, notably on Binance, are now accumulating ETH, confirming that Ethereum is no longer a mere supporting actor but a real growth asset compared to Bitcoin, still seen as a safe haven.

Since its creation, Ethereum has claimed resistance to censorship. However, Vitalik Buterin warns: the concentration of power among a few block builders threatens the network's neutrality.
