ETH rises 0.65% in 15 minutes: spot buying led to net capital inflows

Between 2026-04-16 15:00 and 15:15 (UTC), the ETH price recorded a +0.65% return. The highest price in the range was 2330.16 USDT, while the lowest was 2308.58 USDT, with a swing of 0.93%. The short-term rally immediately drew market attention, increasing capital activity; volatility remained moderately elevated, characterized by strengthening spot buying power. The main driving force behind this unusual move is that buy orders in the spot markets of major trading platforms continued to dominate. Within 15 minutes, the buy volume accounted for 58%–59%, and the total buy volume was about 2.2K–2.6K ETH

ETH drops 1.23% in 15 minutes: Retail’s concentrated sell-off and amplified ETF fund outflows weigh on the spot order book

2026-04-16 13:45 to 14:00 (UTC), ETH spot prices fell by 1.23% in just 15 minutes. The candlestick price range covered 2291.2 to 2336.98 USDT, with a swing of 1.96%. Market volatility intensified, sell pressure on the board became concentrated, and the trading community’s focus clearly shifted toward changes in capital outflows. The main driver behind this abnormal move is large-scale, concentrated selling from retail. In the spot market, net outflows in the first 5 minutes reached as high as -$95.57M. Although some lead/major funds attempted to accumulate at lower prices (net inflows of +$18.95M in large orders over 5 minutes), the overall scale was limited and unable to effectively hedge the overall short-term selling pressure. Meanwhile, the ETH futures market did not show extreme liquidations or large-scale position closures, indicating that the core of the abnormal move came from a spot supply-and-demand imbalance rather than leveraged liquidation cascades. In addition, ETH spot ETF funds have continued to experience net outflows in early April. On April 1, the single-day net outflow was $7.1M. The overall trend in Q1 was bearish, directly reflecting weakening institutional capital allocation intent and further undermining market confidence. Some funds have shifted to on-chain staking and emerging DeFi protocols. It is also worth noting that large holders with holdings in the 100,000-ETH range have continued to reduce their positions since the end of March. Whale capital outflows have persisted, and retail has followed the above signals, leading to a multi-factor selloff resonance effect in the short term. Although both the number of active addresses on the ETH chain and daily trading volume have hit historical highs, network usage and liquidity are overall strong, but capital flow has not formed any substantive spot buy orders, making it difficult to drive a price reversal. At present, short-term market risk remains significant. Investors should pay attention to the strength of subsequent retail selling, the direction of ETF fund flows, and changes in large-holder positions. If large holders and major funds do not form a strong follow-through/acceptance, the spot market may continue to be affected by the release of structural supply. It is recommended that investors monitor key support zones in real time, track large on-chain fund movements, and watch for macro news developments, in order to reasonably mitigate the risk of short-term price fluctuations and promptly obtain more market information.
