> The spot quote was $2,376 four hours earlier; Ether was up 0.48% over 24 hours.

Ether (ETH) climbed 2.59% in four hours to $2,438 at 2:20 p.m. ET (18:20 UTC) Oct. 15, in TokenPost’s direct collection of Binance spot ETH/USDT prices.

Four hours earlier, the same pair stood at $2,376. Ether’s 24-hour change was +0.48% at the snapshot, leaving the four-hour increase larger than the net change over a full day. The snapshot placed Ether second by market capitalization, at approximately $298,924,610,000.

TokenPost’s one-hour liquidation tally across Binance, Bybit and OKX showed $250,000 in long positions liquidated and $610,000 in short positions liquidated. The short-side figure exceeded the long-side total during that hour.

The 24-hour and four-hour percentages use separate starting points for comparison. The price comparison is for Binance’s ETH/USDT spot market, while the liquidation tally combines Binance, Bybit and OKX. Ether’s 24-hour change remained positive, but its four-hour rise was larger, making the shorter-period move the clearest change in the snapshot.
