The Bellatrix hard fork went live today, preparing the network for The Merge between Sept. 13-15. News of the upgrade going off without a hitch appears to have buoyed the market as the Ethereum price hit $1,680, up 6% on the day.

The Bitcoin price is largely unmoved, up just 0.92% on the day, allowing Ethereum to take a small step towards the flippening target of $3,850.

Across the broader market, Ethereum has not quite increased its dominance to the same degree as it has against Bitcoin. $ETH dominance is 20.9%, just 0.2% shy of the yearly high.

Today’s price action is a rare case of selling the rumor and buying the news, the opposite of the old adage in market moves. The scale of The Merge and the moving parts that need to be coordinated is unprecedented. The confidence given to the network by seeing the Bellatrix hard fork take place on the Beacon Chain is now reflected in the price.
