An Ethereum ICO whale from 2015 has moved $645 million worth of ETH to a staking service, signaling long-term confidence amid bullish market sentiment. With over 70% of traders predicting ETH will reach $5,000 by year’s end, institutional interest and macro factors are driving optimism. However, experts caution that profit-taking and rotation to other assets could temper gains.
- An Ethereum ICO whale staked $645M in ETH, retaining $1.1B holdings, indicating strong long-term belief.
- Macroeconomic shifts, including potential Fed rate cuts, are driving optimism for risk assets like Ethereum.
- ETH's correlation with Bitcoin (0.79) may support a push toward $5K, though profit-taking and altcoin rotation pose risks.
