Ethereum Whales Sell $1.8 Billion in ETH as Price Fails Recovery :


Ethereum’s price has struggled to recover, hovering around the $1,700 mark over the last few days. Despite attempts to break higher, ETH has failed to gain significant momentum.
This lack of progress in price movement has prompted large-scale sell-offs from Ethereum whales, compounding the bearish sentiment.
Ethereum Whales Move To Sell
In the past three days, addresses holding between 100,000 and 1 million ETH have aggressively sold about 1.19 million ETH, worth more than $1.8 billion. These whales’ decision to offload significant amounts of Ethereum highlights a shift in market sentiment, as they likely aim to offset potential losses from the stalled recovery.
With Ethereum failing to gain momentum above the $1,700 mark, these large holders appear to be capitalizing on the current price levels, driving the market lower. The sell-off by these whale addresses signals a lack of confidence in the short-term price movement of Ethereum.
The overall macro momentum of Ethereum appears weak, as indicated by the deeply negative MVRV Long/Short Difference of -29%. This indicator shows that long-term holders (LTHs) are struggling to maintain profitability. STHs typically sell quickly after making a profit, which adds to the volatility and bearish pressure on Ethereum’s price.
With STHs dominating profits, Ethereum is increasingly susceptible to further declines. As more short-term investors sell off their holdings, it’s likely that Ethereum will face downward pressure, especially if there are no significant catalysts to drive the price upward.

The crypto market is again in the red zone. Bitcoin and alts are falling, investors are in a panic. Is this already the bottom, or is worse ahead? It's time to think about a strategy!
