The Ethereum price is hovering near a critical long-term zone as whales 
reshuffle billions of dollars in holdings, adding fresh uncertainty to an 
already fragile market. While price action remains weak in the short term, 
analysts say the asset has returned to a historical accumulation range.

Recent on-chain activity shows a surge in whale transfers, liquidations, and 
strategic repositioning, all unfolding as Ethereum (ETH) struggles to defend 
support near the $1,800 level, a price area many traders now view as decisive 
for the next market direction. XRP&#8217;s price trends to the downside on the daily

Zone Market analysts note that the Ethereum price has fallen back into a five- 
year demand area previously seen during the 2022–2023 bear market and the 
brief April 2025 crash. Historically, this range has attracted accumulation 
rather than distribution, suggesting long-term investors may be stepping in 
despite weak momentum. Currently, Ethereum trades around $1,828, down roughly 
3.1% over the past 24 hours, with a market cap near $220 billion and elevated 
derivatives activity signaling continued volatility. Futures trading volume 
has exceeded $51 billion in a single day, while more than $100 million in 
leveraged positions were liquidated. Technically, ETH remains below key 
resistance levels. Price recently slipped under $1,900 and the 100-hour moving 
average, with analysts identifying $1,820 as immediate support and 
$1,900–$1,920 as a major resistance zone. A sustained break below support 
could expose downside targets near $1,780 or even $1,720. Whale Activity 
Signals Market Stress Large holders have played a major role in recent price 
pressure. One whale liquidated 7,200 ETH worth about $13.4 million at a loss 
exceeding $600,000 after exiting a position opened at higher prices. Another 
long-term holder sold nearly 23,924 ETH valued at over $45 million before 
opening leveraged long positions, indicating expectations of further short- 
term volatility. Meanwhile, a separate wallet transferred 12,000 ETH to a 
major exchange, potentially locking in losses exceeding $29 million if sold. 
Exchange inflows are often interpreted as potential sell signals because they 
increase market supply. Adding to the narrative, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik 
Buterin has sold more than 8,800 ETH this month, though analysts say the 
transactions are tied to funding ecosystem development rather than a shift in 
long-term confidence. Institutions Accumulate Despite Weak Price Action While 
some whales reduce exposure, institutional players appear to be moving in the 
opposite direction. Mining and infrastructure firm BitMine Immersion 
Technologies recently acquired 51,162 ETH for its corporate treasury and 
continues expanding its holdings through staking strategies designed to 
generate yield. This divergence between insider selling, whale repositioning, 
and institutional accumulation reflects a market caught between short-term 
fear and long-term conviction. Related Reading: Bitcoin Capitulation Persists 
As Short-Term Holders Realize $0.48B Daily Losses In the short run, the 
Ethereum price outlook hinges on whether buyers can defend the $1,800 region. 
Holding this level could reinforce the idea of a multi-year accumulation 
phase, while a breakdown may trigger another wave of liquidations across 
leveraged markets. Cover image from ChatGPT, ETHUSD chart on Tradingview
