Ethereum fell more than 2% within 24 hours, sliding below $3,000 after losing its $2,900 support level. The drop triggered widespread liquidations, with around $500 million in long positions wiped out. Data shows that $79 million of the $106 million in ETH-focused contracts liquidated were long bets.

Source: ETHUSD on Tradingview Fusaka Upgrade Goes Live, Aiming to Boost Scalability On December 3, Ethereum is set to activate its Fusaka upgrade, the network’s second major 2025 update. The upgrade aligns execution- and consensus-layer changes, introducing features that aim to improve Layer 2 and reduce costs. A key component is PeerDAS, a data-sampling mechanism designed to reduce the bandwidth validators need to verify Layer 2 data. This system aims to cut validator bandwidth requirements by up to 85% and expand blob data capacity, potentially lowering Layer 2 transaction fees by 40–60%. Fusaka also raises Ethereum’s block gas limit to 60 million, enabling more transactions per block, and introduces updates to the Ethereum Virtual Machine that streamline smart contract execution. These combined changes are expected to enhance the network’s transaction capacity. Industry interest had been rising ahead of the upgrade. Major financial players, including Amundi and Fidelity, recently announced moves into tokenized products built on Ethereum, reflecting broader institutional activity across the network. Can Ethereum (ETH) Recover From Oversold Levels? Ethereum (ETH) last traded at around $2,807, with technical indicators indicating continued bearish momentum. The MACD remains in negative territory, while the Relative Strength Index sits at 32, signaling oversold conditions. Key support levels are at $2,700 and $2,500. A failure to hold these zones may deepen the downtrend, while a rebound could push ETH back toward $2,900–$3,000. Open Interest rose 4.3% after the decline, suggesting traders are reopening positions and preparing for higher volatility.

The prices of Ethereum and Dogecoin have followed a similar trajectory to the Bitcoin price crash as the pioneer digital asset continues to lead the crypto market lower. The muted action from Bitcoin has led to speculations that the market is finally headed into another bear trend after rising over the last few years. In this same vein, a crypto analyst has predicted when they believe that the bear market will really start, and that the current trend could still lead to an eventual pump in the market. Why The Bitcoin, Ethereum, And Dogecoin Prices Could Still Pump Crypto analyst ChainShinobi explained what is going on in the market, predicting that the trend could end up going against what investors are expecting at this time. According to the X post, while everyone is currently calling for lower prices, it could lead to another pump that culminates in the final top for the crypto market Related Reading: Dogecoin ETFs Flat At Launch, But TA Points To $1 If This Support Holds ChainShinobi predicts what they refer to as “a face-melter”, the type of rally that no one sees coming and takes the likes of Bitcoin, Dogecoin, and Ethereum to possibly new all-time highs. However, instead of using this time to call for higher prices, the analyst believes that it is the best time for investors to actually get out of the market. This pump, which the analyst refers to as an exit window, could provide investors one final chance to actually get out of the market before another price crash. This is “The moment to lock in massive profit while everyone else is busy blinding themselves with hopium and pushing their targets higher and higher… the same way they dragged their targets lower and lower right now,” the crypto analyst said. The Same Wave Every Cycle As for when the Dogecoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin prices could move into the next bear market, the crypto analyst tells investors not to expect it until next year. More precisely, ChainShinobi believes that the bear market will fully begin by the end of the first quarter of 2025.

Ethereum presently trades around $3,000 following a broader crypto market rebound in the last week. During this time, the market’s largest altcoin gained by 7.22%, providing a much-needed relief after an extended correction that dominated the majority of the last two months. As price stabilizes, crypto analytics platform XWIN Research Japan shares a forward-looking assessment of Ethereum’s outlook, especially considering developments in the futures market. Related Reading: 320 Ether On The Move: Bhutan Ramps Up Its Staking Game Ethereum Bulls Buy The Dip After Weak Position Exits Amid the widespread correction of the crypto market in Q4 2025, Ethereum’s prices crashed from $4,700 to as low as $2,900, representing a 38% price decline. XWIN Research Japan reports this price fall coincided with certain relevant developments in the futures market. In particular, Ethereum’s open interest across all exchanges dropped from $21 billion to around $17 billion in late November, as overleveraged long positions were closed down, forcing traders to open new positions with moderate leverage size. Meanwhile, funding rates stayed positive but declined to around 0.002, meaning that the dominant bullish sentiment from mid-2025 greatly reduced. Looking at on-chain data, the Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) is at 1.27, while Binance data shows it to be around 1.0, both values indicating Ethereum is in a neutral to fair value zone, suggesting a period of stability before the next major trend emerges. Meanwhile, the recent market recovery kick-started after ETH retested the realized price of whale addresses, indicating that large market players are bolstering their holdings. XWIN Research Japan supports this theory, noting that Ethereum Treasury BitMine has boosted its market holdings to 3.63 million ETH. Additionally, a BlackRock client recently acquired tens of millions of dollars’ worth of ETH, further reinforcing the strength of current market demand. However, despite this robust market demand, ETH Spot ETF net outflows for November hit $1.42 billion, indicating there is significant selling pressure in the market. Related Reading: Ethereum Fusaka Will Be ‘The Most Bullish Upgrade’ Ever, Pundit Claims Ethereum Market Outlook At the time of writing, Ethereum trades at $3,003, reflecting a 0.22% loss in the past day. Despite its gains in the last week, the altcoin is still down by 22.34% over the last month, suggesting the majority of short-term holders are in losses. XWIN Research Japan explains that although the overleveraged position has been cleared out with market whales now ramping up their holding, Ethereum remains in a “bottom-building phase”. Therefore, investors should still anticipate a “choppy, sell-on-rally” price action in the short term. The analysts predict a major trend reversal with time as the current price area becomes increasingly attractive to investors for massive accumulation opportunities.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of digital finance, Ethereum is quickly establishing itself as the primary infrastructure for global on-chain capital markets. From tokenized bonds and money market funds to institutional liquidity rails, the world’s capital is beginning to migrate to an ecosystem where transactions are programmable, auditable, and borderless. Why Is Ethereum Chosen As The Default Choice For Global Rails The global capital markets are moving on-chain to Ethereum because it is credibly neutral. ETH has never experienced downtime, and it possesses the economic security necessary to support the world’s financial system. Investor and founder of GM42NFT, Captain GM, has stated that ETH is not fast enough to support trading because it wasn’t built for it. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Falls 25% But On-Chain Data and Institutional Staking Signal Q4 Recovery Potential However, the attempts to build a genuinely fast on-chain trading environment have consistently led teams to centralize significant parts of the trading system. This move creates security, reliability, and neutrality concerns for a system designed to be global. These compromises are in direct conflict with the very benefits that ETH provides, and make it the chosen blockchain for global finance. This is where Raya Network steps in to solve these issues at the core. Raya is delivering a decentralized exchange (DEX) with institutional-grade execution speed and Ethereum-level security. It’s a platform that is as fast as TradFi and remains simultaneously secure, reliable, and credibly neutral as exactly DeFi should be. “Fast is easy, decentralized is hard, and it’s only Reya that does both,” Captain GM noted. Analyst Alucard mentioned that the Raya network has become one of the few projects that genuinely solves the speed and security problem. The sub-millisecond execution speeds, trades are fully verified on ETH, and there’s no dependence on a single sequencer. This is an engineered combination designed for real progress in the space. However, over 45% of the token supply is allocated to the community. Reya, combined with the ETH buyback mechanism, creates an ecosystem that’s aligned both technically and economically. They’re building something fast and secure, and because of that, Reya sits in a different category. Why Reya’s Design Feels More Like A New Standard Than Another DEX A trader and ambassador of Somnia, Onur, has also explained that his experience with Reya feels like a full redesign of on-chain execution rather than a small improvement. It offers sub-millisecond fills, unified margin, Ethereum security with ZK settlement, and smooth flow through EigenDA. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Attempts Fresh Recovery as Bullish Pressure Builds According to Onur, the peer-to-pool model keeps trades consistent, efficient, and free from bottlenecks or hidden edges. As a result of this approach, Reya isn’t just another venue anymore, and it’s actively becoming the new execution standard for DeFi. Featured image from Peakpx, chart from Tradingview.com

A prominent crypto trader has made a bold move back into Ethereum, stirring attention across digital markets. Reports have disclosed that the account known as “1011short” converted 10 million USDC into Hyperliquid before opening a long position with a five-fold leverage, controlling around $44.15 million in ETH. Related Reading: Bitcoin Faces More Downside After Recent Crash, Data Shows Whale Opens A Massive Ethereum Bet The trade uses 15,000 ETH at an entry price of $2,945, while current market levels sit near $2,896. That puts the position about $38,000 in the red for now. Based on reports, the liquidation point is $2,326, giving the trader a sizable margin to withstand market swings. With leverage in play, profits and losses are both magnified, making the move high-risk but potentially high-reward. Market Momentum Shows Mixed Signals Bitcoin has bounced back to $89,000, gaining 1.37% in the last 24 hours, though it still remains over 20% below last month’s highs. Some altcoins followed the trend upward. These gains helped trigger a wave of liquidations, catching many traders off guard. This #BitcoinOG(1011short) is back! He deposited 10M $USDC into #HyperLiquid 6 hours ago and opened a 5x long on 15,000 $ETH($44.15M)!https://t.co/f54Xo9g6vf pic.twitter.com/wfsyYm5JhS — Lookonchain (@lookonchain) November 25, 2025 Liquidations Surge As Prices Bounce In the last day, leveraged positions worth $337 million were liquidated, reports show. About 112,021 accounts were wiped out in total. The majority of liquidations came from short trades ($233 million), while the total for long trades was ($104 million). One of the largest orders liquidated was on Hyperliquid at $8.61 million BTC-USD. At the end of the day, Bitcoin and Ethereum made up the majority of the liquidations: about $119 million in BTC and about $73.34 million in ETH. This indicates the continued high levels of leverage employed in trades on both of the two largest digital currencies by market capitalization, despite large price fluctuations that have been observed recently. The larger the move in either direction, the more uncertain the trader will be with respect to the timing and extent of their exposure, and thus the potential for loss exists for both bears and bulls. Institutional Accumulation Continues Meanwhle, Nasdaq-listed BitMine Immersion Technologies expanded its ETH holdings last week by 69,822 coins, bringing its total to 3.63 million ETH — about 3% of circulating supply. The company also reported 192 BTC, $38 million in Worldcoin, and $800 million in cash. CryptoQuant data indicate unrealized losses of roughly $3.4 billion on its ETH treasury, reflecting market dips.

Ethereum (ETH) is holding firm around the $2,900 level as improving macro sentiment, renewed whale accumulation, and rising ETF inflows strengthen expectations for a short-term rebound toward $3,400. Related Reading: Capriole Founder Not Bearish On Bitcoin Despite Headwinds—Here’s Why With Federal Reserve rate-cut odds now above 80%, traders are positioning for a potential shift in risk appetite that could benefit major cryptocurrencies, especially ETH. ETH's price trends to the downside on the daily chart. Source: ETHUSD on Tradingview Fed Pivot Hopes and Institutional Demand Bolster Ethereum Ethereum has traded between $2,700 and $3,300 in recent weeks, but fresh catalysts are helping the asset stabilize above $2,900. The biggest driver is macroeconomic. CME FedWatch data shows the probability of a December interest-rate cut has surged from 30% to more than 80%. Lower interest rates typically encourage investment in risk-on assets such as crypto. Institutional flows reflect that shift. U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs recorded $96.67 million in inflows on November 24, with BlackRock alone contributing $92.6 million, its first inflow in two weeks Treasury giant BitMine continues to accumulate aggressively, adding 69,822 ETH (over $200 million) last week and bringing its total holdings to 3.63 million ETH, around 3% of the circulating supply. At the same time, whale wallets holding 10,000–100,000 ETH amassed 440,000 ETH in one week, signaling renewed confidence despite broader market caution. Ethereum (ETH) Poised for a Breakout Toward $3,400 Despite trading under the 20-day SMA at $3,132, Ethereum is showing early signs of bullish momentum. The MACD histogram has crossed into positive territory, and the RSI is sitting near the neutral 50 line, with room to move higher before hitting overbought levels. Other indicators strengthen the bullish case: Bollinger Bands: ETH’s position near 0.32 suggests price is closer to the lower band, a common rebound zone. Volume: Binance 24-hour trading volume around $1.27 billion indicates enough liquidity to support a breakout. ATR: With daily ATR at $201.62, volatility remains elevated, favoring sharp upside moves if momentum builds. The first major test remains $3,132. A clean breakout and two consecutive daily closes above this level would likely trigger algorithmic buying and push ETH toward the $3,400 target within 5–7 days. Beyond that, resistance at $3,658 becomes the next upside objective. Market Risks and Short-Term Outlook While bullish momentum is building, Ethereum still trades in a broad descending channel, and market structure remains fragile. Failure to reclaim $3,132 soon could send ETH back toward $2,750, with deeper support at $2,623 and the cycle low of $2,659. Related Reading: The Bull And Bear Scenario For XRP That Could Play Out In November Broader crypto weakness, negative spot flows, or delays in network upgrades could delay a breakout. However, with rising institutional demand, whale accumulation, and rate-cut optimism, Ethereum’s probability of retesting $3,400 is steadily improving. Confidence Level medium is at Medium (65%), as ETH’s path to $3,400 remains viable but requires confirmation through key resistance levels. Cover image from ChatGPT, ETHUSD chart from Tradingview
Ethereum’s price has spent the past several days under intense pressure. The leading altcoin has broken below $3,000 and is now probing deeper into ranges that were previously considered secondary support. The latest technical read points to a single leverage point on the chart that now determines whether this recovery attempt can continue or whether the market is preparing for another leg lower. Where The Real Leverage Sits: $2,830 To $2,835 Ethereum’s price decline in November recently pushed it into a demand zone around $2,680 on November 21, where buyers finally stepped in to produce a 10% rebound back up to $2,970. The RSI trendline, which had been sloping downward for weeks, has now been reclaimed. This shift is significant because it indicates that momentum is no longer deteriorating at the same pace as before. Related Reading: Ethereum Dead Cat Bounce Puts Price At $3,400, But What’s The Ultimate Target? Even with that bounce, the cryptocurrency has not fully escaped danger. This is based on a technical outlook by a crypto analyst known as Umair Crypto on the social media platform X. The most important finding in the technical analysis is not the bounce itself but the location of the largest recent whale orders. Roughly 4,000 to 5,000 ETH blocks were executed between $2,830 and $2,835. That narrow band has now become the market’s true leverage point. As long as the Ethereum price is trading above $2,835, these whales are in profit. The psychological impact of that cannot be overstated, as large players do not usually abandon positions that are above their entry zone. This is why the price has repeatedly reacted within tight candles around this level, and there is always a possibility for a rebound if Ethereum continues to hold this area. Momentum will build naturally as trapped shorts unwind and sidelined buyers follow the strength in trading volume and RSI. The Bigger Breakdown Starts Below $2,770 Failure to hold above the leverage zone between $2,830 and $2,835 will lead directly into the second important leverage at $2,770. If Ethereum were to close below this level, the same whales who supported the bounce would instantly become vulnerable. Their positions would move underwater, and many of them may be forced to become sellers. Related Reading: Why Are The Bitcoin, Ethereum, And Dogecoin Prices Down Again?

Ethereum is testing a critical juncture as the golden pocket between $2,600 and $2,800 comes into play. With resistance looming at $2,800, the market now faces a pivotal moment. Can ETH reclaim this level and spark a move toward $3,000, or will sellers push it back below key support? Golden Pocket Breakdown Validates Ethereum’s Downside Target In an Ethereum update, analyst Luca has offered a detailed analysis of the leading altcoin, reflecting on the expert’s previous predictions. As he covered all his PAT updates and his latest YouTube video, once Ethereum broke down below the high-timeframe support range, specifically the golden pocket between the 0.5 and 0.618 Fibonacci POIs, the most likely outcome was a continuation of the downside pressure. Related Reading: Ethereum Is Sitting On Its Most Critical On-Chain Support Level — A Rally Emerging? Luca explained that this expected continuation was targeting the next major support, the high-timeframe support range marked in purple. That exact scenario just played out, with the price now confirming the bounce on the low-timeframes, performing precisely as anticipated. From this validated support, Luca believes the most likely outcome is a reversal back to the upside. However, he stressed the need for confirmation before fully committing to the long side: “Before I start scaling out of my hedges, I want to see additional signs of strength and a clear bottoming formation to confirm that this level is holding,” Luca stated. The analyst concluded with a warning: if the price were to break below this established range, it would entirely invalidate the idea that the move is a simple corrective Wave 2 on the high-timeframes. Instead, the breakdown would signal a durable structural decline, which Luca intends to “avoid getting caught in.” $2,600 Tested: Buyers Rush To Defend Lows After examining current price action, crypto analyst Ted Pillows highlighted that ETH experienced significant volatility yesterday, nearly touching the $2,600 level before finding a temporary floor. Following that test, Ethereum is currently attempting to reclaim the $2,800 level, but is facing noticeable resistance from sellers at that mark. Related Reading: Ethereum Approaches Critical Resistance — Bullish Breakout Or Trap In The Making? The analyst provided a clear path for a continued recovery. Should Ethereum decisively reclaim and hold the $2,800 level, it would signal sufficient bullish strength, propelling ETH toward the next significant psychological and technical target at the $3,000 level. Conversely, Ted warns that if this essential $2,800 level is not reclaimed, the market is likely to reverse lower. As a result, traders should expect a sweep below the $2,500 level, indicating a need to test deeper support before the asset can attempt another structural recovery.

Ethereum is still struggling after the initial market crash on October 10 that rocked the market. The subsequent market declines have pushed the largest altcoin by market cap toward $3,000, breaking below it for the first time at the start of the week. With the price looking to find support, there is the possibility of a dead count bounce happening that could see the price rise by more than 10%. However, with a dead count bounce being ultimately bearish, the target remains much lower. Why Ethereum Could Be Headed Lower Crypto analyst TradingShot, in a recent analysis, outlined how the Ethereum price looks to be caught in a bearish trend since early October. This had first begun after the altcoin put in a new all-time high just above $4,900 before being hit hard in the October 10 market-wide crash. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Could Surge Above $1 As It Repeats This Trend From 2023-2024 Since then, the digital asset has been caught within a Channel Down. This Channel Down is what triggered the double-digit decline that has been recorded for the altcoin since then. As the crypto analyst explains, the Ethereum price has seen a 27.50% decline on both of its bearish legs since this trend was established. Recently, though, there has been a small turn in the tide after the price dropped below $3,000, and this happened after Ethereum formed higher lows on the 1-Day RSI. Mostly, this is bullish for the cryptocurrency’s price, but the catch is that it is likely only going to be so for the short term. If the bullish divergence does play out as expected, then the Ethereum price is definitely set for some recovery. TradingShot believes that this recovery could bring the ETH price up by 10%, pushing it up to $3,400 before the bears step back in again. However, the overall trend still remains bearish, and this could act as a hindrance to this recovery. Once the bears mount enough resistance to stop the rally in its tracks, it is expected that the decline will resume. If this plays out, then it could mean that the recovery was only a dead cat bounce. Related Reading: Here’s Why The Bitcoin Price Keeps Crashing- Is $80,000 Next? This $3,400 level lies at the 1-Day MA50, which is important because it was the point of rejection back on October 27. Last time, it led to a 27.50% crash for the Ethereum price. This time, once the sell-offs begin again, the crypto analyst believes that this could trigger a sharp crash below $3,000. The timeframe for this ranges from the end of November to the start of December, giving it only a couple of weeks to play out. The crash is expected to push Ethereum down to $2,650 before finding a bottom, marking a new lower low. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

The cryptocurrency market finds itself at a compelling crossroads, and Ethereum has once again returned to a pivotal on-chain support zone that has historically marked major turning points in its market cycle. With ETH now pressing against this same support, the market is exhibiting a strong reaction that could confirm the integrity of the long-term trend. Why This On-Chain Support Zone Defined Ethereum Recovery Ethereum’s price is sitting right on top of its most important on-chain support, and the behavior around this level is exactly what occurs before a big reversal. A popular crypto news site, CryptosRus, has revealed on X that the ETH price sharply dropped to $2,870 earlier today, only to bounce instantly after Nvidia’s earnings lifted the entire market. CryptoRus highlighted that this bounce isn’t the real story, but the level at which it happened is. Related Reading: Ethereum Big Wallets Are Back: Whales Are Quietly Accumulating ETH – A Rally On The Way? Presently, the $2,800 zone is a strong on-chain floor for ETH. This is because the level lines up perfectly with the realized price of both retail and whales. These are the same zones that have marked the ETH bottoms in every past cycle, and ETH just tapped it perfectly. The classic signature of a bottom-zone behavior is that small wallets are in panic, while big wallets are buying in silence. Meanwhile, the on-chain rotation data has clearly shown that retail holders are selling, while whale investors holding 10,000 ETH and above are steadily loading up. A similar sentiment has been detected in the liquidation data. Long liquidations are barely moving on each new low, which means that the forced sellers are gone and the short sellers have been piling in aggressively. That’s the perfect setup for a squeeze. According to the expert, ETH didn’t just dip; it slammed into a major on-chain support, as large investors bought it up with conviction. Meanwhile, retail dumped it in panic, shorts crowded it, and now even a small bounce can trigger the fireworks. Historical Patterns Suggest A Reset Precedes The Next Expansion Ethereum had just repeated the identical liquidity pattern that occurred at the last two major bottoms, and it happened almost in the same week. An analyst known as Milk Road has stated that every single major ETH reversal started with a full liquidity reset. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Uphill Battle Continues as Sellers Hold the Advantage As that same liquidity reset occurs again, that’s when the ETH price begins its next massive expansion leg, which is exactly the setup ETH is currently in.

Ethereum (ETH) is flashing a rare technical warning sign for bears. According to the analysis, the daily chart has hit a historically oversold MACD reading not seen in years, aligning with a deeply oversold RSI. This confluence of extreme momentum signals suggests that the price has entered a major demand zone, dramatically increasing the likelihood of a powerful relief rally and setting the stage for a significant short-term rebound. MACD Hits Rare Historical Lows — A Zone Linked To Major ETH Bottoms According to a recent post from More Crypto Online, Ethereum is currently flashing one of its most extreme MACD readings seen in years on the daily timeframe. While the MACD technically has no fixed oversold threshold, comparing past cycles gives valuable context. Historically, ETH has often formed significant market bottoms whenever the MACD enters the -210 to -220 region, a zone it has dipped below a few times, but not often. Related Reading: Ethereum Slips to $3K, Highlighting Weakness After Recent Failed Rebound This puts the current MACD position into what can be considered a historically oversold zone, signaling increased potential for a relief bounce. Adding to this confluence, the RSI has also slipped deep into oversold territory, reinforcing the idea that sell pressure may be nearing exhaustion. Together, both indicators suggest that momentum could soon shift away from the bears. However, the analyst cautions that these signals alone do not confirm a major trend reversal. Oversold conditions can persist longer than expected, particularly in strong downtrends. Even so, such extreme readings are often early clues that a temporary recovery or a corrective move to the upside may be approaching. Overall, the current market structure gives the bears something to think about. Early Signs Of Relief: Ethereum Finds Stability In Key Demand Zone In a 3D market update, CryptoPulse reported that Ethereum has now cleanly tapped the identified Demand Zone, showing early signs that the aggressive downside may be easing. This reaction suggests sellers are losing momentum, creating the conditions for a potential short-term rebound if buyers step back in. Should bullish strength return, a retest of the $3,500 region is likely in the coming sessions. Related Reading: Ethereum Approaches Critical Resistance — Bullish Breakout Or Trap In The Making? However, CryptoPulse emphasized that confirmation is still required before calling any meaningful reversal. A strong bounce paired with a reclaim of key short-term levels would be the first signal that buyers are regaining control. Meanwhile, if bearish pressure persists, Ethereum may drift deeper into the chart structure, where the next significant demand sits between $2,400 and $2,600. This zone could act as the major support zone for ETH if the current support fails to hold. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com

That gap left Ether lagging for months even as Bitcoin made fresh highs. Now, with ETH nearer to where long-term holders bought in, some analysts see a potential floor forming. Reports have disclosed that these accumulators have been “patiently stacking,” and their cost positions matter for near-term price action. Altcoins Show Little Momentum Smaller large-cap coins are holding weaker ground. XRP was trading near $2.20, BNB around $932 and Solana close to $138, with most of last week’s gains fading. Other popular tokens — Tron, Dogecoin, Cardano, Chainlink, Hyperliquid and Zcash — are under light selling pressure and low net movement, suggesting market-wide caution rather than a single-asset sell-off.

The Ethereum price has slipped deeper into a bearish structure that has intensified over the past week. A combination of weakening momentum, strong ETF outflows, and selling from long-term holders has dragged the price of Ethereum lower at a pace that has led to concerns about whether the cryptocurrency is preparing for a deeper correction. The latest decline has now placed the $3,000 region back into view and it opens up the question of whether the momentum behind this downturn is strong enough to force another breakdown below $3,000. Ethereum Price Slips Below Moving Averages As ETF Outflows Deepen New data from 10x Research reveals that Ethereum is now trading firmly below both the 7-day and 30-day moving averages, confirming a clean shift toward bearish momentum. The latest one-week change shows a decline of -6.6%, with the price failing to regain the short-term trendline at any point during the sell-off.

This technical deterioration is unfolding at the same time the Ethereum ETF market is experiencing one of its heaviest redemptions on record. According to data from SoSoValue, spot ETH ETFs have now seen more than $1.4 billion in net outflows since the beginning of November, a change that shows the decisive shift in institutional appetite. The combination of sustained selling pressure and shrinking ETF demand has created a feedback loop that continues to pull ETH lower whenever each price support level fails. XRP Price Chart. Source: 10X Research On X Long-Term Holders Selling Fastest Since 2021, But Whales Are Accumulating On-chain flows paint a picture of an ecosystem under strain. Data shows that long-term ETH holders, wallets that have held their coins for three to ten years, are now selling at their fastest rate since 2021. This group is known to be dormant during most phases of the market, so their recent activity has introduced a strong supply wave that exchanges have struggled to absorb.

On-chain data shows that a few large whale wallets have stepped in aggressively during the downturn and bought hundreds of thousands of ETH worth over $1 billion. Meanwhile, the scale of accumulation has not been large enough to counteract the broader selling from long-term holders or the ETF outflows, leaving the price of Ethereum trapped inside a downward-tilting trend channel. Ethereum is now trading around $3,182, but its intraday low has stretched as far as $3,023. This leaves very little margin between the current level and the support zone at $3,000. If sellers continue to dominate and push the price below the $3,150 to $3,200 range, a direct slide to $3,000 becomes increasingly likely during the new week.
