Bitcoin's average transaction value has soared above $150,000, a staggering ascent from the $25,000 figure recorded in July. The climb amounts to 500% growth across four months.
On October 20, the metric hit $151,800 per transaction, the period's peak. The surge built in stages. August 17 saw an average of almost $121,000. A month later, in mid-September, it climbed to nearly $130,000, setting the stage for the current peak.

This surge accompanies a resurgence in Bitcoin's market dominance. For the first time in three years, Bitcoin commands a market share matching the level it held at its previous all-time high. At the same time, Bitcoin's average transaction value of $151,800 dwarfs Ethereum's by a factor of 190.
Ethereum's average transaction value followed a different path. Between July and now, the average bounced between $800 and $1,500, a narrow band. One burst disrupted this pattern in late August and early September, when the average spiked to $2,562 on September 1. Another surge on September 18 touched $2,100. Since then, the average settled back to $793.
Bitcoin's average transaction value, 190 times larger than Ethereum's, underscores Bitcoin's commanding share of overall market activity. Bitcoin Cash posted sharp but temporary spikes over the same period. The average reached $28,544 on August 12, then surged again to $26,093 on September 3. Readings remained below $20,000 for the rest of the period.
Both Bitcoin and Ethereum processed steady transaction counts over the quarter, with volumes holding steady overall. Ethereum posted a notable exception on September 17, when the network recorded 1.406 million transactions, a three-month high. The previous record arrived on August 10 with 1.29 million transactions.
