Ethereum (ETH) is trading at its lowest levels since late 2023, struggling to regain momentum after an extended period of selling pressure. Since December 2024, ETH has lost over 57% of its value, failing to reclaim key resistance levels. With the broader crypto market facing macroeconomic uncertainty and persistent volatility, Ethereum’s downtrend appears far from over.

Despite the ongoing decline, on-chain data suggests that large investors may be positioning for a recovery. According to CryptoQuant, whales have moved over 130,000 ETH off exchanges in the past week, signaling a growing accumulation trend. This pattern has been developing since Ethereum started trending downward, suggesting that institutional players and long-term holders are buying the dip in anticipation of future price appreciation.
While short-term sentiment remains bearish, historical data shows that large whale accumulations often precede strong rebounds once selling pressure fades. However, ETH still faces significant resistance, and bulls must reclaim key levels to confirm a potential trend reversal. With market uncertainty still looming, the next few weeks will be critical in determining Ethereum’s next major move. Ethereum Whale Activity Hints At Optimism
Ethereum has been under massive selling pressure, struggling amid macroeconomic uncertainty and trade war fears that have shaken both the crypto market and the U.S. stock market. ETH is now trading below a multi-year support level, which could act as a strong resistance in the coming weeks. If bulls fail to reclaim key price levels, the stage could be set for a deeper correction.
However, not all indicators are bearish. Despite the ongoing downtrend, some analysts remain optimistic about Ethereum’s long-term prospects.

This is significant because large investors typically move their holdings off exchanges when they plan to hold for the long term rather than selling. When whales transfer ETH into private wallets, it often signals accumulation rather than immediate selling pressure. Historically, such trends have preceded market rebounds, as reduced exchange supply can contribute to price stability and future upside potential.

While Ethereum still faces major hurdles, whale activity suggests that smart money is positioning itself for the next move. The next few weeks will be crucial in determining whether ETH can reverse its downward trend or if further declines are ahead. Bulls Fight to Hold Key Levels
Ethereum is currently trading at $1,904, struggling to regain momentum after days of consolidation below the $2,000 mark. The ongoing selling pressure has kept ETH under key resistance, making it difficult for bulls to reverse the trend and start a recovery.

For Ethereum to regain a bullish outlook, bulls must reclaim the $2,000 level as soon as possible. A sustained push above this resistance would signal strength and could set the stage for a rally toward higher levels, potentially testing $2,250–$2,400 in the coming weeks.
However, if ETH loses current levels of demand, the next major liquidity zone sits around $1,600. A breakdown below $1,750 could trigger further sell-offs, leading to an extended bearish phase that could delay any potential recovery.

With whale accumulation increasing and on-chain data suggesting reduced exchange supply, some analysts believe Ethereum could soon attempt a breakout. However, macroeconomic conditions and overall market sentiment remain critical factors in determining ETH’s short-term trajectory. Bulls will need strong buying pressure to reclaim lost ground and avoid a deeper decline.
