Ether.fi's CoinGecko coin page, refreshed at 06:55:51 UTC on 10 November 2026, showed the ETHFI token at $0.634934. The 24-hour change field on that same payload read 7.66 percent. Bitcoin, requested from CoinGecko at the same timestamp, was $74,585, and its 24-hour field read 0.40 percent. Quiet, for this record, means a Bitcoin change on that field of less than 1 percent, and 0.40 percent clears that bar.
The window is CoinGecko's rolling 24-hour percentage, which is a different object from an exchange session close and from the distance between the day's low and the day's high. On the Ether.fi payload the 24-hour high was $0.640901 and the low was $0.576294, a span of 11.2 percent. The $0.634934 print sat 0.9 percent under the high, about nine-tenths of the way up that range, while the one-hour field was already minus 0.60 percent. The snapshot caught a rise that had started to fade.
The longer fields on the same two payloads put the day inside a softer stretch. Ether.fi's 30-day change was minus 9.51 percent and Bitcoin's was minus 10.11 percent. The 14-day fields were minus 2.45 percent and minus 6.61 percent. The 7-day fields are where the gap opens: Ether.fi plus 10.34 percent, Bitcoin minus 2.57 percent. Market cap was $634,004,681 at rank 91, with 998,535,999 ETHFI circulating against a maximum of 1,000,000,000 and 24-hour volume of $41,698,523. Supply times $0.634934 reproduces that market cap to the dollar. A market_chart call at 06:56:10 UTC printed $0.634429, and the headline stays with the coins endpoint because the percentage field is stored there.
The governance forum's latest-topics page, opened for this record, still had 2025 proposals at the top of the list. The public ether.fi site returned a Vercel security checkpoint, so a notice living only there stayed unread. Two company posts from 9 November did verify: a Foundation buyback note at 13:32 UTC and a card-spend line at 19:02 UTC. On the hourly chart the sharpest step, from $0.592765 at 12:00 UTC to $0.613250 at 13:00 UTC, was already printed before the earlier of those posts. The cause this record can name is the comparison with Bitcoin. Ether.fi's 24-hour percentage was about 19 times Bitcoin's.
4 to 8 November on the daily points
CoinGecko's daily market_chart points are prices at 00:00 UTC. Changes from one of those points to the next are a close-to-close built from that series, and they are a different window from the 24-hour field in the headline.
At 00:00 UTC on 4 November, ETHFI printed $0.576430 and Bitcoin printed $77,384.59. A day later ETHFI was $0.591465, up 2.61 percent, and Bitcoin was $80,442.71, up 3.95 percent, so the large coin was the stronger tape for that single step. At 00:00 UTC on 6 November the order of the damage flipped: ETHFI was $0.532678, down 9.94 percent, and Bitcoin was $76,005.51, down 5.52 percent. Both assets fell, and Ether.fi fell further, leaving $0.532678 as the low of this daily series. The morning coins price was still 92.56 percent under the March 2024 high of $8.53 and 138 percent above the June 2026 low of $0.26653.
The split the headline describes starts at the next midnight. At 00:00 UTC on 7 November, ETHFI was $0.582378, up 9.33 percent from the 6 November point, while Bitcoin was $75,775.28, down 0.30 percent. At 00:00 UTC on 8 November, ETHFI was $0.601378, up a further 3.26 percent, and Bitcoin was $75,776.38, unchanged at the precision of these prints. From the 6 November low to the 8 November point is 12.9 percent in ETHFI against a 0.30 percent slip in Bitcoin. The repair was specific to the smaller token, and it was unfinished: $0.601378 was still under the 2 November midnight of $0.615086 and the 1 November midnight of $0.623889.
9 November, the hour the price stepped up
The daily series then gave part of the bounce back. At 00:00 UTC on 9 November, ETHFI was $0.576707, down 4.10 percent, and Bitcoin was $74,740.42, down 1.37 percent. The hourly series, aligned with Bitcoin at the same timestamps, shows the token still near $0.577467 at 08:00 UTC and at $0.592765 by 12:00 UTC, with Bitcoin at $73,828.47 and $74,315.68.
Between 12:00 and 13:00 UTC, ETHFI went from $0.592765 to $0.613250, a gain of 3.46 percent, while Bitcoin went from $74,315.68 to $74,846.70, a gain of 0.71 percent. By 16:00 UTC, ETHFI was $0.629740, another 2.69 percent above the 13:00 print, and Bitcoin was $75,464.77, up 0.83 percent from 13:00. From the 9 November midnight to 16:00 UTC, ETHFI rose 9.20 percent and Bitcoin rose 0.97 percent. The Foundation post is timestamped 13:32 UTC, after the 13:00 print and before the 16:00 print. The post can sit inside the second half of the afternoon rise. The hour that did the first part of the work was already on the chart before the post's clock, so the tweet is a poor candidate for the cause of that hour.
What the Foundation posted about the prior week
The Foundation account described the purchase as a record for the week just ended. The oEmbed for the post returns the figures in the block below.
Record buyback last week:
— ether.fi Foundation (@ether_fi_Fdn) November 9, 2026
Purchased 475,619 ETHFI for a total of 278,026 USDT
Total: 2,991,948 ETHFI pic.twitter.com/4TAM2vh0hN
Dividing 278,026 USDT by 475,619 ETHFI gives an implied average of $0.5846, which is the price the tokens would have cost if the whole sum had cleared at one level. That average sits between the 6 November daily print and the 9 November midnight, and it sits under the 10 November morning price. Four earlier Foundation posts, each checked through the same oEmbed endpoint, put the week against the weeks before it. The token count on 9 November is the largest of the five, and the USDT sum is second, behind the week posted on 19 October.
| Post date (UTC) | ETHFI bought | USDT spent | Implied average | Cumulative total on the post |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12 October 2026 | 324,981 | 233,113 | $0.7173 | 1,381,330 |
| 19 October 2026 | 432,217.40 | 293,228 | $0.6784 | 1,813,548 |
| 26 October 2026 | 336,346 | 225,030 | $0.6690 | 2,149,894 |
| 2 November 2026 | 361,538 | 233,983 | $0.6472 | 2,511,433 |
| 9 November 2026 | 475,619 | 278,026 | $0.5846 | 2,991,948 |
Source: ether.fi Foundation posts, oEmbed verified on 10 November 2026, with the average equal to USDT spent divided by ETHFI bought.
The running totals add until the last row. The 19 October cumulative matches the prior cumulative plus that week's tokens, within a fraction of a token, and the 26 October line matches exactly. The 2 November cumulative is one token above a straight sum. Adding 475,619 to the 2 November total of 2,511,433 produces 2,987,052, while the 9 November post states 2,991,948, a gap of 4,896 ETHFI. The posts are the source, and any later reconciliation has to start from them.
Set against the float, the same purchase is 0.0476 percent of the 998,535,999 tokens in circulation, and the cumulative 2,991,948 ETHFI is 0.300 percent of that supply. The week's 278,026 USDT equals 0.67 percent of one day's $41,698,523 volume print. A buy of that size is a weak mechanical explanation for a 7.66 percent move, even though the disclosure itself is real.
The October 2025 treasury proposal authorises purchases while spot is under $3, up to $50 million, and 278,026 USDT is 0.56 percent of that cap. The Monday post is silent on whether that page is the mandate. A gitbook note says acquired ETHFI from the documented streams is remitted to sETHFI holders. The 9 November post states a purchase and a total, and it is silent on a burn, a distribution, or a wallet.
The card-spend line, later the same day
At 19:02 UTC the protocol account posted a card-spend line. The 19:00 UTC chart print was already $0.628470, which is 9.0 percent above the 9 November midnight, while Bitcoin at that hour was $74,609.16, down 0.18 percent from its own midnight print.

— ether.fi (@ether_fi) November 9, 2026
The line is the company's own wording, and it arrived after the afternoon step. The ether.fi homepage, which has carried earlier spend milestones, stopped this session at a checkpoint, so the $1.1 billion figure here rests on the post and the oEmbed.
10 November, the screen against Bitcoin
After 19:00 UTC the token stopped climbing. At 00:00 UTC on 10 November the chart showed $0.627476 against Bitcoin at $75,266.77, an 8.80 percent ETHFI rise and a 0.70 percent Bitcoin rise from the prior midnight. The 06:56 UTC chart print was $0.634429, with Bitcoin at $74,582.37 on the paired 06:55 UTC point, while the coins endpoint had $0.634934 and $74,585. Those two endpoints disagree by half a cent and about $20. The headline percentages stay with the coins fields.

Read down the second table and the headline shrinks to its actual size. On the hour into the snapshot, both coins were down, Ether.fi by a little more. On 24 hours, Ether.fi was up hard and Bitcoin was flat. On seven days, Ether.fi was up and Bitcoin was down. On fourteen and thirty days, both were down, and Bitcoin was down by more. The quiet-tape claim fits the 24-hour field and the 7 and 8 November daily steps. It is a poor description of 5 and 6 November, when Bitcoin itself moved several percent, and a poor description of the month, when the two fell by similar amounts.
Where the morning print sits on a longer chart
The chart uses the daily series from 12 August 2026, when the midnight print was $0.380842, through the 06:56 UTC print of $0.634429 on 10 November. From that August point to the morning print is a rise of 66.6 percent. The highest midnight print inside the span is $0.784566 on 1 October, and the morning chart print is 19.1 percent under it. The sessions around the headline are the hook at the right edge. They repair part of the slide from that October point, and they leave the token under it.
RelatedEthereum Classic (ETC) Runs Proof of Work on a Capped Supply
From the 4 November midnight to the 06:56 chart print, ETHFI rose 10.06 percent while Bitcoin fell 3.64 percent, from $77,384.59 to $74,565.24. From the 6 November low to $0.634429 is 19.1 percent, against a 1.90 percent Bitcoin decline over those same timestamps. The 24-hour field remains the cleaner public number, because CoinGecko publishes it as one field.
What the token is attached to
ETHFI is the governance token of Ether.fi, and the CoinGecko profile pulled with the price lists contract 0xfe0c30065b384f05761f15d0cc899d4f9f9cc0eb beside a description of staking, vaults, and a card. Neighbouring designs are a separate subject: how Lido sets each daily stETH rebase, how Rocket Pool splits a minipool reward, and where EigenLayer's yield splits from native staking.
The pages open for the price itself were the CoinGecko payloads and charts for Ether.fi and Bitcoin, the Foundation posts and the protocol post through oEmbed, the October 2025 proposal, the gitbook note, and the forum's latest-topics list. Exchange notices were absent from the pages that loaded. The comparison with Bitcoin is the cause the tape supports. The two company posts are dated statements in the same day, and the hourly clocks put the main price step ahead of both.
What would make this account wrong
Four later findings would overturn the record of the move. A revised CoinGecko snapshot for 06:55:51 UTC on 10 November 2026 with an Ether.fi 24-hour change under 5 percent would take the move out of the class this record is about. A Bitcoin 24-hour field of 1 percent or more on that snapshot would remove the quiet-tape description. A revised hourly series that erased the step from $0.592765 at 12:00 UTC on 9 November to $0.613250 at 13:00 UTC would erase the claim that the sharpest hour printed before the Foundation post. A notice dated 9 or 10 November, including a page still behind the checkpoint, that named a listing or a fresh mandate for that hour would supply a cause left unnamed here.
FAQ
What Ether.fi price did CoinGecko show on the morning of 10 November 2026?
The ether-fi coin endpoint, last updated at 06:55:51 UTC, showed $0.634934 and a 24-hour change of 7.66 percent. The high on that payload was $0.640901 and the low was $0.576294. A market_chart call at 06:56:10 UTC showed $0.634429. Market cap was $634,004,681, 24-hour volume was $41,698,523, and rank was 91. The headline uses the coins endpoint because the percentage field is stored there.
How did Bitcoin trade on the same 24-hour field?
Bitcoin's coin endpoint, updated at the same 06:55:51 UTC, showed $74,585 and a 24-hour change of 0.40 percent. The one-hour field was minus 0.32 percent, the seven-day field was minus 2.57 percent, and the 30-day field was minus 10.11 percent. A paired chart print at 06:55 UTC was $74,582.37. The gap of about $20 versus the coins endpoint is a few hundredths of a percent, and the 0.40 percent field is the one the quiet-tape line uses.
What did the ether.fi Foundation post on 9 November?
At 13:32 UTC the Foundation account posted a weekly buy of 475,619 ETHFI for 278,026 USDT, and a cumulative total of 2,991,948 ETHFI. Dividing those sums implies $0.5846 a token. The purchase equals 0.0476 percent of the circulating supply on the next morning's payload. Adding the week's tokens to the prior cumulative leaves the new total 4,896 ETHFI above a straight sum. The post calls the week a record and states those figures.
How far was the morning print from the CoinGecko high and low?
The payload's all-time high is $8.53 at 15:14 UTC on 27 March 2024, and the distance field is minus 92.56 percent, so the morning price is 7.4 percent of that high. The all-time low is $0.26653 at 19:19 UTC on 5 June 2026, and $0.634934 is 138 percent above it. On the daily chart from 12 August, the high midnight print is $0.784566 on 1 October, and the 10 November chart print sits 19.1 percent under that point.
Did the 9 November posts land before the price step?
The sharpest hourly step on 9 November ran from $0.592765 at 12:00 UTC to $0.613250 at 13:00 UTC, a gain of 3.46 percent against a 0.71 percent Bitcoin move. The Foundation post is timestamped 13:32 UTC. The card-spend post is timestamped 19:02 UTC, when the chart already showed $0.628470. The order of those clocks puts the main hour ahead of both posts, which is why the Bitcoin comparison is the cause named here.
Which window should a later reader quote?
Quote the coins-endpoint 24-hour fields, 7.66 percent for Ether.fi and 0.40 percent for Bitcoin at 06:55:51 UTC on 10 November 2026, when the subject is the headline. Quote the midnight-to-midnight change, 8.80 percent and 0.70 percent from 9 to 10 November, when the subject is a constructed close. The windows agree on the shape and differ on the exact percentage because they end at different times.
