Ethereum ETFs record another week of heavy outflows as whales shed their holdings

Fonte Fxstreet
  • Grayscale's ETHE $111 million exodus sparked net outflows for ETH ETFs last week.
  • Ethereum whales have been distributing their holdings since July.
  • Ethereum could see a rejection around the $2,400 resistance level.

Ethereum (ETH) is up 2.5% on Monday as the top altcoin attempts to recover from the selling pressure of exchange-traded fund (ETF) investors and top whales.

Daily digest market movers: Ethereum ETFs outflows, whale distribution

Ethereum ETFs posted a net outflow of $98.1 million last week following ETH's price struggles. The US spot ETH ETFs — led by Grayscale ETHE’s $111 million exodus — dominated the negative flows after recording outflows for all its trading days in the week.

The outflows align with a similar attitude among Ethereum whales with holdings of >10K ETH. Glassnode data revealed that this cohort has been selling or redistributing their holdings since July. Recent whale activity confirms the data, as Hong Kong-based asset manager Metalpha deposited 10K ETH worth $23 million to Binance a few hours ago. The asset manager has transferred 23.58K ETH to Binance for an average price of $54.1 million in the past three days.

Additionally, a potential Ethereum Foundation wallet sold 450 ETH for 1.029 million DAI in the past 24 hours, per SpotOnChain. Notably, the Foundation has often sold at price tops, considering the decline that followed several of its past sales.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin may have also been selling ETH:

On a positive note, Ethereum recorded a 4-month high in network growth after it added 126,210 new wallets on Sunday.

ETH technical analysis: Ethereum could see rejection around $2,400

Ethereum is trading around $2,330 on Monday, up 2.5% on the day. In the past 24 hours, ETH has seen over $30 million in liquidations, with long and short liquidations accounting for $8.83 million and $21.51 million, respectively.

Ethereum resumed the week attempting to recover from Friday's price decline. The decline saw ETH lose the $2,400 support level and fall inside another key rectangle. As a result, the $2,400 price level has flipped to become the resistance of this rectangle, with its support level around $2,100.

On the road to recovery, ETH may see a rejection around the $2,400 resistance, supported by the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA).

On the downside, a breach of the $2,100 support could send ETH toward the $1,550 price level.

On the 4-hour chart, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates rising bullish momentum after crossing above its midline. The Stochastic Oscillator has crossed into the oversold region, meaning a slight correction may be imminent.

In the short term, ETH could rise to $2,365 to liquidate positions worth $47.09 million.

Ethereum FAQs

Ethereum is a decentralized open-source blockchain with smart contracts functionality. Serving as the basal network for the Ether (ETH) cryptocurrency, it is the second largest crypto and largest altcoin by market capitalization. The Ethereum network is tailored for scalability, programmability, security, and decentralization, attributes that make it popular among developers.

Ethereum uses decentralized blockchain technology, where developers can build and deploy applications that are independent of the central authority. To make this easier, the network has a programming language in place, which helps users create self-executing smart contracts. A smart contract is basically a code that can be verified and allows inter-user transactions.

Staking is a process where investors grow their portfolios by locking their assets for a specified duration instead of selling them. It is used by most blockchains, especially the ones that employ Proof-of-Stake (PoS) mechanism, with users earning rewards as an incentive for committing their tokens. For most long-term cryptocurrency holders, staking is a strategy to make passive income from your assets, putting them to work in exchange for reward generation.

Ethereum transitioned from a Proof-of-Work (PoW) to a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) mechanism in an event christened “The Merge.” The transformation came as the network wanted to achieve more security, cut down on energy consumption by 99.95%, and execute new scaling solutions with a possible threshold of 100,000 transactions per second. With PoS, there are less entry barriers for miners considering the reduced energy demands.
