Ethereum price struggled to clear the $3,400 zone and corrected gains. ETH is firm near $3,280 and might attempt another increase in the near term. Ethereum started a downside correction from the $3,400 resistance. The price is trading near $3,280 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a key bullish trend line forming with support at $3,280 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken). The pair could start another increase unless there is a close below the $3,250 support zone. Ethereum Price Holds Firm While Bitcoin Dips Ethereum price extended its increase above the $3,250 zone. ETH even cleared the $3,350 resistance zone and tested the $3,400 level. Recently, there was a downside correction from the $3,395 high, but it was less compared to Bitcoin. The price declined below the $3,350 support zone. It declined below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,201 swing low to the $3,395 high.

The trend line is close to the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,201 swing low to the $3,395 high. If there is a fresh increase, the price could face resistance near the $3,350 level. The first major resistance is near the $3,400 level. The next major hurdle is near the $3,440 level. A close above the $3,440 level might send Ether toward the $3,500 resistance. The next key resistance is near $3,550. An upside break above the $3,550 resistance might send the price higher toward the $3,720 resistance zone in the near term. More Losses In ETH? If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,350 resistance, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near $3,280. The first major support sits near the $3,250 zone and the trend line. A clear move below the $3,250 support might push the price toward $3,180. Any more losses might send the price toward the $3,120 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $3,080.

Ethereum spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that debuted in the US last week have taken the cryptocurrency market at large by storm with considerable inflows into these products. According to a recent report by CoinShares, the advent of these spot ETFs has attracted $2.2 billion, marking a pivotal moment for Ethereum and its investors. Related Reading: […]
After a drab week characterized by Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana prices either dumping or moving sideways, prices bounced off strongly by the end of last week. Of note, losses in Ethereum were arrested as prices recovered, rising from around $3,000. At the same time, Bitcoin and Solana pushed higher, closing in on $70,000 and $200, respectively. Interest In Bitcoin, Ethereum, And Solana Spikes According to Santiment data, despite weakness across the scene, there were hints of strength at the tail end of last week. Of note was renewed interest, where Solana, Bitcoin, and Ethereum saw a marked spike in trading volume. Related Reading: Fantom (FTM) Regains Momentum After Weeks Long Bleed – Will This Continue? When trading volume surges, it often suggests that market participants are curious and willing to engage, especially if prices are rising. Since these top coins were firm, rejecting losses, especially from Friday, July 26, buyers were in the equation, looking to capitalize. As Santiment analysts noted, how Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana perform tends to impact the general market. If Ethereum rallies, for example, it would benefit the broader layer-2 and 3 ecosystems. This will push meme coins and even decentralized finance (DeFi) activity even higher. There were multiple factors behind this interest. In Bitcoin’s case, shifting regulatory perspective on the world’s most valuable coin and increasing endorsement from politicians, especially in the United States, could explain why more are willing to learn about the coin. The Impact Of Trump, Spot Ethereum ETFs, And SOL Flipping BNB Over the weekend, Donald Trump, the former president and the presidential candidate in the upcoming November election, delivered a keynote address at the recently concluded Bitcoin conference in Nashville. Trump expressed his support for Bitcoin, saying he would make America the home of crypto. Meanwhile, eyes were on Ethereum following the approval of spot ETFs by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Though the derivative product began trading at leading bourses, including the NYSE and Cboe, inflows remain low. If anything, Farside data showed that by Friday, spot Ethereum ETFs had posted outflows for three consecutive days. Outflows from Grayscale’s ETHE chiefly drove this. Even amid this unexpected development, BlackRock’s spot Ethereum ETF product saw over $87 million inflows on July 26.

According to July 29, SOL commanded a market cap of $88.5 billion, while BNB stood at $86.5 billion, according to CoinMarketCap data. Over the past few weeks, SOL has been edging higher. To put in the numbers, SOL is up 56% from July lows. It will likely register fresh Q3 2024 highs if buyers breach $200. Feature image from DALLE, chart from TradingView

Ethereum (ETH) recorded a significant loss in price this week following the trading debut of Ethereum spot ETFs. According to data from CoinMarketCap, ETH has declined by 6.60% in the last seven days, falling as low as $3,100. However, amidst this price crash, CryptoQuant analyst burakkesmeci has made an important observation with a potential impact on market movement. Related Reading: Ethereum Targets Recovery: Can It Mirror Bitcoin’s Performance? Ethereum Open Interest Surges By $1.5 Billion In Three Weeks In a Quicktake post on CryptoQuant, burrakesmeci shared that the Open Interest (OI) on Ethereum has risen by a remarkable $1.5 billion in the past three weeks. For context, Open Interest refers to the total number of outstanding positions for a particular asset. Generally, an increase in Open Interest indicates a rise in market participation for any asset i.e., more traders are opening long or short positions on Ethereum. With this rise in open positions, there is likely an equal increase in the number of leverage trades. Burakkesmeci expressed that a surge in liquidations should also be expected as leveraged trades, which are open with borrowed funds, are always closed once an insufficient price margin occurs. Furthermore, This increase in leverage trading liquidations is expected to produce a high market volatility, resulting in unpredictable and rapid price movements. In regards to price action, a rise in Open Interest indicates the current market trend is gaining stronger. Therefore, despite Ethereum’s price dip in the last week, the prominent altcoin is likely to extend its 7.01% gain of the past three weeks in the coming months. At the time of writing, Ethereum presently trades at $3,278.80 with a 3.46% increase in the last 24 hours. The altcoin appears to be attempting a market recovery with a strong resistance expected at the $3,500 region. However, if the current buying pressure proves insufficient to break past this barrier, Ethereum could return to the $3,100 price mark or even slide as low as $2,900. Related Reading: Ethereum Whales Rapidly Accumulate ETH Amid Price Decline Ethereum Spot ETFs Net Outflows Reach $469 Million In another development, the newly launched Ethereum Spot ETF market has now recorded a cumulative outflow of $469.83 million in its first three days of trading. Data from Farside Investors identifies Grayscale’s ETHE with a total outflow of $1.51 billion as the major cause of this current market position. Meanwhile, BlackRock’s ETHA continues to lead the market with inflows worth $354.8 million, followed closely by Bitwise’s ETHW with $265.9 million. Like their Bitcoin counterparts, the debut of the Ethereum spot ETF has been accompanied by a significant price drop. However, it remains uncertain whether these Ethereum ETFs will eventually trigger a price surge akin to the one experienced in the Bitcoin market during the initial two months of BTC Spot ETF trading.

Today, the Render Network finalized its RENDER crypto AI token migration and upgrade. Following the highly anticipated rebrand, the AI token saw a positive price action, surging over 15% on the last day. Investors and market watchers expressed optimism about the rebranded token and consider it could hit $10 soon. Related Reading: Ethereum Targets Recovery: Can It Mirror Bitcoin’s Performance? From RNDR To RENDER Last year, the Render Network Foundation changed from Ethereum (ETH), where it was initially launched, to Solana (SOL). The move followed a community vote that passed two major upgrades for the Network. According to the announcement, the Solana switch was “proposed for faster transactions, cheaper fees, and the project’s needs to achieve more ambitious goals with more on-chain data and transactions.” The community also voted to rebrand the token from RNDR to RENDER, which would conclude in 2024. This month, the foundation informed users that many crypto exchanges, including Binance, Kraken, OKX, Crypto.com, and KuCoin, would automatically swap the RNDR tokens for the rebranded token on a 1:1 ratio. On Monday, the RNDR delisting from crypto exchanges began ahead of the scheduled migration on July 26. Exchanges halted most operations with the token, negatively impacting its performance over the week. Moreover, Whales seemingly contributed to the impact of the token’s price. Online reports revealed that some major holders sold their RNDR following the news, dragging the price from above the $7 support level to below the $6.5 price range. The token continued to plunge in the following days, dropping below the $6 mark, a 17% drop in four days. Nonetheless, the highly anticipated migration and listing of the new RENDER token seems to have kickstarted a price recovery. AI Token Skyrockets 17% Following Binance Listing The newly rebranded crypto AI token surged over 17% today after being listed by crypto exchange Binance. On Friday, the exchange announced that RENDER had been added to Binance Simple Earn, Buy Crypto, and Binance Convert. Additionally, it revealed that the Binance Margin and Futures options would be available today for the AI token. Meanwhile, the Auto-Invest option will be added on Monday, July 29. On that date, Kraken, the crypto exchange, will also list the RENDER and delist the RNDR. Investors and market watchers expressed their optimism over the rebrand and Binance listing. An X user claimed that, as the project begins this new era, “the RENDER token with this fresh chart of around $6.5 lows has potential to reach unimaginable heights.” Crypto analyst Coinboss considers that the token could “do a flipperino” if it has a clean break out above the $7 resistance level. A successful retest of the target could potentially lead the token to reclaim the $11 mark, further fueling a surge above RNDR’s all-time high (ATH) of $13.53. Another pseudonym crypto analyst believes RENDER could reach $10 soon, stating, “Thanks for the fud. See you above $10.” Some users also consider that investors will regret not getting the “greatest buying opportunity.” Related Reading: Solana’s Celebrity Tokens Down 94%, MOTHER Community Defends The Memecoin In the last 24 hours, the crypto AI token has seen a remarkable 140% surge in market activity, with $83.1 million daily trading volume.

Post the Spot Ethereum ETFs launch, the ETH price has continued to struggle unexpectedly, proving that the launch of the Spot ETFs were a ‘sell the news’ event. So far, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap has lost around 10% of its value since the Spot Ethereum ETFs trading began on Tuesday, July 23, and could see further decline from here, according to an analysis from Matrixport. Spot Ethereum ETFs Triggers Selling Following the launch of the Spot Ethereum ETFs, there was a lot of excitement in the market, especially around the fact that investors could now gain exposure to ETH without having to directly buy the underlying token. However, this excitement has been short-lived as days after the launch, the ETH price continues to struggle. Related Reading: End Of The Road? Shiba Inu’s Shibarium Sees Massive 80.3% Crash In Active Accounts In a report released on Thursday, Markus Thielen, Head of Research at Matrixport, outlined a number of reasons why the ETH price was declining. As Thielen explains, while the inflows crossed $100 million on the first day, the Grayscale Ethereum fund had been suffering outflows. Just like with the Spot Bitcoin ETFs launch, the Grayscale ETH fund, which holds around $9 billion in ETH, began recording outflows. This is due to the fact that Grayscale’s management fees remain high with competitors offering fees as low as 0.19%. On the first day alone, $481 million flowed out of the fund, and $326 million followed the next day. In addition to this, the Mt. Gox distributions began around the time of the Spot Ethereum ETFs launch, so this even also put extra selling pressure on the crypto market. Just as the Bitcoin price did with the Spot Bitcoin ETFs, the ETH price has responded negatively to these outflows, leading to a price decline below $4,200. Will The ETH Price Recover From Here? Outflows from the Grayscale ETH fund since the launch of the Spot Ethereum ETFs have been one of the major factors driving the ETH price decline. However, it is not the only bearish development that has emerged for the cryptocurrency. Thielen points out that the ETH price may have reached the top, using the daily stochastics indicator as a guide. Now, when the value of this indicator is low, it often means a buying opportunity and the price is hitting a low. Meanwhile, the value being high suggests that the ETH price may have hit its top. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Says Bitcoin Is Headed For $260,000 But This Must Happen First According to the report, the ETH price had hit a score of 92% in the days leading up to the Spot Ethereum ETFs launch. Usually, a score above 90% is bearish for the price as it means the cryptocurrency is currently in overbought territory. Subsequently, the value of the stochastic indicator is expected to decline as investors offload their holdings. So far, there have been a 5% decline from 92% to 87%, suggesting that there is still a long way to go before the ETH price stops bleeding. “Considering the recent rally and the potential overhang from Mt. Gox, the US earnings season, and the weak seasonals for August and September, it might make sense to press the Ethereum short a bit longer,” Markus Thielen said in closing.

The pair could continue to move up if it stays above the $3,180 support zone. Ethereum Price Recovers above $3,200 Ethereum price extended losses below the $3,250 support zone. ETH even declined below $3,150 and tested the $3,080 support zone. A low is formed at $3,087 and the price is now rising but lacks momentum like Bitcoin. There was a move above the $3,200 resistance. The price cleared the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,500 swing high to the $3,087 low. Besides, there was a break above a connecting bearish trend line with resistance at $3,220 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. Ethereum is still trading below $3,350 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If there are more upsides, the price could face resistance near the $3,300 level. The first major resistance is near the $3,350 level, the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average, and the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,500 swing high to the $3,087 low.

Ethereum whales have been busy in the market, as on-chain data shows that these investors have been heavily accumulating the second-largest crypto token by market cap. This comes amid a price decline in ETH’s price, with history suggesting that the crypto token might suffer more price declines in the short term. Whales Accumulate More ETH Data from the market intelligence platform IntoTheBlock shows that Ethereum Whales bought 297,670 ETH ($1 billion) on July 24. The previous day, these whales also bought almost 400,000 ETH. Further data shows an increase of over 28% in the inflows into these whales’ addresses in the last seven days. Related Reading: Machine Learning Algorithm Predicts Shiba Inu Price Will Rise 119% In 5 Days The decline in outflows from these addresses further highlights these investors’ bullish sentiment towards Ethereum despite its underperformance. Outflows from these accounts have declined by over 14% in the last seven days and down by over 16% in the last 30 days. The large holders’ netflow metric on IntoTheBlock also highlights this wave of accumulation among Ethereum whales, as net flows have increased by over 313%. This means that these investors are heavily accumulating rather than opting to sell their ETH holdings. On-chain analytics platform Santiment noted that this significant increase in ETH’s whale activity is due to the Spot Ethereum ETFs, which began trading on July 23. The platform made this observation while revealing that since July 17, the amount of ETH transfers has exceeded over $100,000 in value, which is over 64% higher than the number of BTC transfers and over 126% higher than the USDT transfers on the Ethereum network. The Spot Ethereum ETFs had undoubtedly presented a bullish outlook for Ethereum even before they launched, as crypto analysts like RLinda predicted that ETH could rise to $4,000 thanks to these funds. As such, it is no surprise that Ethereum whales continue to accumulate the crypto token in anticipation of higher prices from ETH. The Spot Ethereum ETFs Launch Might Be A Headwind At First The Spot Ethereum ETFs were projected to be the catalyst that would spark a massive rally in ETH’s price, and that is likely to happen at some point. However, history suggests these funds may act as a headwind for Ethereum at first, similar to the fate that Bitcoin suffered immediately after the Spot Bitcoin ETFs launched earlier this year. Related Reading: Analyst Says Solana Price Will Surge 1,000% To $1,800, Here’s When Bitcoin experienced significant price declines, largely thanks to the outflows from Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust (GBTC). A similar situation is already playing out for ETH with Grayscale’s Ethereum Trust (ETHE). Interestingly, Grayscale’s ETHE experienced a net outflow of $484.1 million on day 1 of trading, much larger than the net outflows GBTC experienced on day 1, and GBTC is bigger. Considering this, Ethereum could face significant selling pressure from Grayscale’s ETHE. Data from Farside Investors shows that the Spot Ethereum ETF experienced a net outflow of $326.9 million on July 24 (day 2), likely just the start of the massive outflows that could eventually pour out from the fund.

The much-anticipated launch of several Ethereum-based spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) failed to ignite a significant Ethereum (ETH) price rally. Despite considerable trading volumes and large inflows for the “newborn” ETFs on their first day, the Grayscale outflows have been too massive (once again) to propel the Ether price upwards. Ethereum ETFs Start Strong, But Grayscale … Eric Balchunas, a senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg, shared via X (formerly Twitter), “DAY ONE in the books for Eth ETFs who did $1b in total volume, which is 23% of what the spot bitcoin ETFs did on their first day and ETHA did 25% of IBIT’s volume.” He also noted that “The gap between ETHE and The Newborn Eight is a healthy +$625m.” However, despite these healthy volumes, the price of Ethereum only increased marginally by 1% yesterday. At press time, ETH stood at $3,437, down 0.4% over the past 24 hours. In contrast, Bitcoin (BTC) price declined by 1.6%, and other altcoins also faced downward pressure, dropping between 4% and 10%. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Stays Flat Despite Today’s ETF Debut: QCP Explains Why James Seyffart, another Bloomberg ETF expert, commented the first day of inflows, “First full day of flows for the ETHness stakes are in. The Ethereum ETFs took in $107 million. BlackRock’s ETHA led the way with $266.5 million followed by Bitwise’s ETHW with $204 million. Very solid first day.” Despite these positive inflows, the day was not without its challenges. The Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE), which transitioned from a traditional trust to a spot ETF, saw substantial outflows amounting to $484.9 million, representing about 5% of the fund’s value. Eric Balchunas commented on this movement, “Damn. That’s a lot. Like 5% of the fund. Not sure The Eight newbies can offset w inflows at this magnitude. On flip side maybe its for best to just get it over with fast, like ripping a band aid off.” The introduction of these ETFs is part of a broader trend following the launch of similar Bitcoin ETFs in January, which also experienced a mix of inflows and significant outflows from the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC). The Ethereum Mini Trust, another Grayscale product, however, reported $15.2 million in new inflows.
