Here’s Why Ethereum Is Not Out Of The Woods Yet

Ethereum has been seeing some significant downside coming out of the weekend. This was triggered by the FTX hacker, who currently holds hundreds of thousands of ETH, dumping some of those coins for Bitcoin over the weekend. After dumping around 10,000 ETH, the digital asset had dumped more than 7%, as a large number of investors continue tracking the wallet.

More Pain To Come For ETH

Looking at the impact of the FTX hacker selling ETH for BTC had on the market, and seeing the balances of the address, it is no secret that Ethereum is not completely out of the woods yet. There are a lot of eyes on the hacker’s wallet, which contains more than 180,000 ETH, coming out to over $200 million.

Even now, the hacker continues to dump more ETH, putting more sell pressure on the cryptocurrency. On Monday, the hacker dumped another 15,000 ETH which was converted to BTC according to on-chain data. Given the pattern of selling, it looks like the hacker is trying to convert the stolen crypto to BTC, likely running it through a mixer later on.

Continuous selling on the part of the hacker who is now one of the largest ETH whales could cause further damage to Ethereum’s price. Over the last 24 hours, ETH’s price is already down more than 7%, making triple-digit price ranges an increasing possibility for ETH.

Can Ethereum Hold Up?

Ethereum bulls continue to fight the selling pressure being created by the FTX hacker dumping coins but there is only so much they can do. During a crypto winter such as the one currently being experienced, prices of cryptocurrencies are already down, making them more susceptible to further declines.

If the FTX hacker were to dump all 180,000 remaining tokens on the market, then there is not enough demand to soak it up at this time. The support at $1,000 is already weakened and would make for easy pickings for bears as well.

Alternatively, the hacker could stop selling coins to wait for a price recovery which would give the market some time to actually find its footing. But sentiment in the space is already dropping and investors have retreated into their shells once more as the Fear & Greed Index points toward extreme fear.

Ethereum Whales Gobble Up Over 650,000 ETH As Market Hits New Lows

Ethereum whales are going straight to market to load up their bags as ETH falls to ‘discount prices’. Just like the rest of the crypto market, Ethereum has taken a beating down, falling more than 20% in the last three days. While panic continues to spread across the market, whales have loaded up their holdings with more than 600,000 ETH.

Ethereum Whales Buy The Dip

The “Buy the dip” sentiment is still really strong among players in crypto. Since the assets are currently at one of the lowest price points for the year 2022, it presents an opportunity for those looking to buy the digital asset at a low price.

Ethereum whales holding between 100-1,000,000 ETH on their balances have been the most active in this regard. Data from on-chain analysis firm Santiment shows that these large investors added a total of 657,390 ETH to their balances in the space of 24 hours.

Ethereum (ETH) Santiment

Whales accumulate ETH | Source: Santiment

This led to a sharp increase in their collective holdings as they are now holding more than $780 million worth of ETH. Most of the buys happened after the market had begun to stabilize and the accumulation trend had begun.

Accumulation among Ethereum investors is also shown in the exchange net flows in the last 24 hours. Even as sell-offs continue to be the order of the day, there is still reasonable demand for ETH in the market. Glassnode data shows that on the last day, there was $1.4 billion worth of ETH flowing out of exchanges compared to $1.2 billion in inflows, leading to negative net flows of -$220.6 million.

Bitcoin Whales Follow Suit

Ethereum whales are not the only ones trying to get their hands on more coins. Unlike Ethereum which had held above its cycle low, bitcoin had broken far below its cycle low of $17,600, reaching levels not seen since 2020.

In response, the bitcoin-denominated open interest has soared. With open interest reaching as high as 380,000 BTC on Thursday, it shows that bitcoin investors are treating the decline as an opportunity to buy tokens for cheap.

Santiment notes that long bias was becoming more prominent, especially among FTX users whose funds are stuck on the exchange. Given that these users believe their funds have already been lost, they are taking more risks as they try to recoup losses.

Nevertheless, bitcoin has not shown any signs of being at the bottom. There has been no significant support and the price of the digital asset continues to fluctuate wildly after hitting a new cycle low of $15,500 on Wednesday.

Ethereum Bulls Defend $1,200 Support As Price Holds; How Long Will This Last?

  •  ETH’s price loses its $1,500 support as the price trades to a region of $1,250 before bouncing off this region.

Still, these expectations were cut short by the uncertainty surrounding the crypto market. ETH’s price is looking weak with the current market issue between Binance and FTX, creating a fear of uncertainty and doubt for most traders and investors. (Data from Binance)

Ethereum (ETH) Price Analysis On The Weekly Chart

The previous week saw many altcoins produced over 200% gains over the past 7 days of breaking out of their range-bound movement, as many believe more hope is returning to the crypto space.

The new week has yet to kick in like the last as most altcoins, including ETH affected by the current state of the market as the price of ETH looks shaky, dropping off from their weekly highs.

Still, the price of ETH has continued to look bearish after breaking below its weekly high of $1,450, which has served as a support and demand zone for months now, holding off the price from sell-offs. The price of ETH retesting the support at $1,200 is not good for the market as this would weaken this region for bears to push the price lower. 

The price of ETH needs to rally off this region to look safe and avoid dropping below its weekly lows, as this would affect the general market sentiment. If the price of $1,200 fails to hold, we could see the price of ETH retesting at $1,000 and lower.

Weekly resistance for the price of ETH – $1,400.

Why Ethereum Would Have Been A Better Investment For MicroStrategy

The debate of which is the better investment between Bitcoin and Ethereum continues to wax strong between communities. This time around, it is being put to the test using MicroStrategy’s crypto investments over the years. Microstrategy is currently seeing a loss on the 130,000 BTC that it had purchased over the years, making it the public company with the largest bitcoin holdings. But what if the company had invested in Ethereum instead?

Ethereum Is A Better Bet

In the course of about two years, MicroStrategy had ramped up its BTC buying which ran into billions of dollars. At 130,000 BTC on its balance sheet, the company has spent approximately $4 billion to accumulate the coins. However, even with the coins being bought over time at varying prices, the company is still recording a more than $1 billion loss at the current price of bitcoin.

Given that the company remains steadfast in its support and continuous investment in bitcoin, it begs the question of what would have been the case if the company had gone with another cryptocurrency. Specifically, bitcoin’s largest competitor Ethereum.

It is no secret that more often than not, Ethereum has been outperforming bitcoin. So it is not a stretch to say that MicroStrategy would be in a better position if it had invested in Ethereum instead of bitcoin, and the numbers prove this to be true.

Ethereum price chart from TradingView.com

A comparison from Blockchain Center shows that MicroStrategy would be $1.47 billion in profit if it had bought ETH. Tracking the purchases that the company has made over the years, it would have 3,541,989 ETH now, worth $5.6 billion.

Even at the peak of MicroStrategy’s BTC holdings, the comparison shows that ETH would still have performed way better. In December when MicroStrategy’s holdings were worth just under $8 billion, it would have been worth $16 billion with ETH. Additionally, if the company had invested in Ethereum and then proceeded to stake its ETH, it would have earned approximately $380 million since then.

Even now, if the company were to convert all of its BTC holdings to ETH, it would come out to a total of 1,692,762 ETH. At a 4% APR rate, it would be earning an additional $134 million in annual revenue just from staking alone.

The comparison puts the various profitability levels of both digital assets over the year. Ethereum has continued to outperform bitcoin both in the long and short term. It really begs the question of if Bitcoin is really the best crypto asset to invest in as ex-CEO of MicroStrategy Michael Saylor said.

Ethereum Must Hold $1,500 Or Risk A Decline To $1,300

Ethereum is on an obvious bull path given its performance in the last couple of weeks. The digital asset took a turn for the better more than a month after the Merge was completed and accumulation among investors was already in full swing. ETH’s price eventually surpassed $1,600 before encountering rejection and dropping down below. 

Ethereum Needs To Hold $1,500

Now that the digital asset has been beaten down back below $1,600, support has moved lower. $1,500 is currently serving as the support level for Ethereum at this point. This now makes it the level to hold for bulls and the level to beat for the bears.

If the digital asset is unable to hold this level and bears are able to drag its price down below, then ETH will likely see $1,300 on its way down. Below, $1,500, support is weak given the recent sell-offs that have followed the recovery in price. Thus, it lies just above $1,300 before the losses reach a block.

As for the current resistance, it still lies above $1,600 for any significant pushback. This is because Ethereum’s price remains firmly above its 100-day moving average, with a firm middle point between this and the 200-day MA sitting at $1,800. Thus, bears continue to fight to hold any level that could prevent such a recovery.

In addition to this, the sell-offs have been slower than what was recorded back during the period of the Merge. This is why despite an unfavorable announcement by the Fed on Wednesday, there is still a lot of value left from last week’s gains in the crypto market.

As long as there is no drastic shift in investor sentiment at this point leading to massive sell-offs, Ethereum is likely to continue holding above $1,500, at least for the short term. The weekend performance will be another thing entirely given that this is a period of low momentum for the market. So the current indicators for ETH holding through Friday and could deviate going into the weekend. 

ETH’s biggest support still comes from investors holding out hope that the gains recorded in digital assets such as Dogecoin will eventually spill into the broader altcoin market. If so, then ETH could see a rally above $1,600 once more before the weekend is in full swing.

The price of ETH after the merge has become a shadow of itself after the price rallied from a weekly low of $1,000 to a high of $2,030 before seeking a rejection in its price as the price of ETH attempts to break past the resistance at $2,030.
