Ethereum Whales Return to Profitability as Historical Bottom Signal Reappears
Ethereum is holding above the $2,000 level as selling pressure begins to build again, placing the market at a critical inflection point after a short-lived recovery. While ETH has managed to stabilize above this psychological threshold, recent price action suggests that momentum remains fragile, with sellers gradually regaining control following the latest push higher. From a structural standpoint, ETH remains in a well-defined downtrend. Price continues to trade below the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, all of which are trending downward. This alignment confirms that broader market momentum is still bearish, with rallies likely to encounter resistance at these dynamic levels.Related Reading
The recent bounce appears corrective rather than impulsive. Price briefly reclaimed the short-term moving average but failed to sustain momentum, indicating weak follow-through from buyers. Additionally, volume patterns show that the most significant spikes occurred during the sell-off phase, suggesting capitulation-driven activity rather than strong accumulation.
In the near term, the $2,000 level acts as a key support zone, while the $2,200–$2,300 range represents immediate resistance. A decisive reclaim of this area would be required to shift the short-term structure. Until then, ETH remains vulnerable to further downside, with the risk of revisiting recent lows if selling pressure intensifies.
