Despite the bullish momentum, the Ethereum Foundation once again sold into strength. On July 10, on-chain analysts tracked a transfer of 1,000 ETH to a linked address, followed by a sale of 1,210 ETH early Friday at approximately $2,900, netting $3.496 million in USDC.

However, institutional demand remains robust:

  • BlackRock reportedly purchased $158 million worth of ETH overnight.
  • GameSquare, a Nasdaq-listed firm, acquired over 1,800 ETH for $5 million.
  • A whale wallet starting with 0x8c0 invested $25 million to buy more than 9,000 ETH.

These large-scale purchases suggest growing confidence in Ethereum’s long-term value, even as the Foundation trims its holdings.
