BTC and ETH are pushing for the strongest August performance in recent years There are only a few days left in August, but BTC and ETH's monthly performance has already been quite impressive. - BTC is up 27.04% so far this month. Not only does it have a chance to break the 4-year streak of ending August in the red, but if it holds until the end of the month, it could become the best-performing August since 2018. - ETH is even more aggressive, up 34.32% this month. It has the potential to surpass August 2021's +35.46% and set a new record for the best August performance since 2017. Of course, August isn't over yet, so it's still too early to talk about records. But with one aiming for $80K and the other chasing the best August in nearly 9 years, the next few days are going to be exciting to watch.
