Tirgus sabrukuma laikā Ethereum vaļi turpina pirkumus

Ethereum, one of the leading cryptocurrencies, finds itself amidst a price decline alongside the broader crypto industry. This downturn has been exacerbated by escalating tensions in the Middle East, casting a shadow of uncertainty over the market. As the majority of cryptocurrencies experience a bleed in value, Ethereum is not immune to the trend. However, while retail investors panic-sell their holdings, on-chain data presents a different picture. Big player whales in the market are seizing the opportunity to accumulate assets, displaying a bullish sentiment amid the turmoil.

Particularly, on-chain data from Lookonchain has shown an Ethereum whale accumulating during the price decline. Interestingly, the timeline of accumulation suggests that this whale has been in action even before the escalating tensions in the Middle East.

Ethereum Whales Accumulate During Market Downturn

On-chain transaction tracker Lookonchain has noted both a selloff and accumulation trend from different Ethereum whales in the past few days. One of the latest accumulations came from a whale that has been on constant withdrawals from crypto exchange Binance.

As revealed by Lookonchain, whale “0x4359” has withdrawn 62,141 ETH worth $202.6 million from Binance in the past five days. This whale’s latest withdrawal from Binance was less than 12 hours ago, where they withdrew 37,018 ETH worth $120.7 million.

Ethereum on the other hand, has fallen from $3,722 to as low as $2,866 in the last five days, representing a 23% price decline. In a similar manner, 7,300 ETH worth $23.8 million were transferred from Binance into “0xE347,” a newly created whale wallet. 

That said, Lookonchain also noted a trend of whales selling off their holdings. Viens piemērs of such selloffs came from whale address “0xaF35” who deposited 6,700 ETH worth $23.65 million into Binance immediately before the price drop. It’s important to note that this same whale withdrew 26,698 ETH worth $94.3 million from Binance between Feb. 7 and April 1.

In vēl viens ieraksts sociālajos tīklos, Lookonchain revealed four whales dumping 31,683 ETH worth $106 million during the price drop.

Kas nākamais Ethereum?

The ETH accumulation and selloffs from different whale cohorts highlight the contrasting trading strategies between large holders of the crypto asset. While some are selling off, others are taking advantage of the low prices and buying the dip. 

It would seem the whale accumulation is still outweighing selloffs from their counterparts at the time of writing. Despite this, a selloff from retail investors has tipped the price action in favor of the bears. As a result, Ethereum now finds itself trading around the $3,000 price level, which remains a crucial price level.

A continued accumulation from whales galu galā varētu tip the price of Ethereum to the side of the bulls as tensions in the global market start to subside. We could then see Ethereum hold up above $3,000 and surge upwards at least till it reaches $3,200. A continued selloff could lead to a further price decline, causing Ethereum to break below $3,000.
