Ethereum exchange reserves have fallen to a record low, even as the token 
trades near $2,15 and still struggles to break out. CryptoQuant data shows 
reserves are down about 77% from their 2021 peak, while CoinGlass data points 
to a surge in futures activity, with volume topping close to $50 billion in 24 
hours. Related Reading: XRP Wallet Count Tops 8 Million As Trading Volume 
Nears $4 Billion Exchange Balances Keep Sliding The long slide in exchange 
balances has been building for years. According to CryptoQuant analyst 
Rich_dady, the decline has accelerated since late 2025, and the gap between 
price and reserve levels suggests that coins are still leaving exchanges at a 
fast pace. That kind of movement usually means holders are sending ETH to cold 
storage, staking it, or parking it away from trading venues. Even with that 
tighter supply, the market has not shown the kind of buying pressure that 
would normally push price higher. The report says ETH rose about 4% over the 
past 24 hours, but the move has not been enough to change the broader picture. 
Buyers, it says, have not stepped in with much force. Futures Trading Is 
Running Ahead Of Spot The bigger action has been in derivatives. CoinGlass 
data cited in the piece shows open interest climbing at the same time futures 
volume jumped past $49 billion in a single day. The report also points to $1.2 
billion in futures inflows over 24 hours, a sign that traders are taking on 
more leverage while spot flows stay mostly flat. That split matters. When 
derivatives heat up faster than spot buying, the market often gets choppier 
instead of trending cleanly in one direction. The report says that setup 
points to weaker demand than the supply picture might suggest on its own. 
$2,100 Support Still Holds For Now ETH remains above $2,100 support, but the 
report says that level has not yet turned into a clean launch pad for a 
stronger move. The current setup leaves the market waiting on spot demand, 
which the piece says is still the missing piece. Related Reading: XRP Headed 
For A Price Shock, Japan’s Financial Heavyweight Says Without more consistent 
buying from new entrants, lower exchange reserves alone may not be enough to 
force a breakout. For now, the picture is uneven. Supply on exchanges keeps 
shrinking, yet price action stays boxed in. Traders are active, leverage is 
rising, and the spot side remains quiet. That leaves Ethereum in a narrow and 
uneasy stretch, where the next clear move may depend less on supply and more 
on whether buyers finally return. Featured image from Meta, chart from
