While Ethereum sees substantial accumulation from both corporate entities and large individual investors, Solana faces significant distribution from long-term holders, and Bitcoin traders are repositioning as technical indicators suggest potential market turning points.

Major cryptocurrency investors are executing coordinated sell-offs of SOL, AAVE, and ASTER tokens, transferring over $120 million in assets to exchanges amid a broad market downturn. This whale activity has contributed to a 5% decline in total crypto market capitalization to $3.67 trillion, with altcoins posting losses between 6% and 9% as they follow Bitcoin’s steady decline. The moves suggest large players are reducing exposure and cutting losses during persistent market volatility, with one entity taking a $5 million loss on ASTER holdings.

A major Ethereum investor, who acquired one million ETH during the 2015 ICO, has transferred $645 million to a staking service, while still holding $1.1 billion in ETH. This move comes as Ethereum recently hit a record high above $4,900 and is up 71% over three months, fueled by crypto regulation tailwinds and institutional ETF inflows. According to Bitwise’s Max Shannon, macroeconomic conditions—such as a weak jobs report increasing odds of a September rate cut—are boosting risk-on assets like ETH. While a Myriad prediction market shows 73% of respondents believe ETH will surpass $5,000 before 2026, Shannon notes that profit-taking, ETF flow weakening, and potential rotation into other cryptocurrencies like Solana could hinder short-term momentum. The high BTC-ETH correlation (0.79) may support further gains, but ETH’s significant run-up already poses psychological barriers for investors.
about Ethereum Whale Stakes $645M, $5K ETH Price PredictedEthereum Surges Past $4,200 Amid Bullish Retail & Institutional Demand
Ethereum (ETH) has surpassed $4,200, marking a significant milestone amid bullish retail sentiment and institutional accumulation. Social media trends reveal a strong bullish bias, with hashtags like #buying and #bullish dominating, while bearish commentary remains subdued. Institutional players have acquired over 1.035 million ETH worth $4.17 billion since July 10, signaling strategic positioning. Additionally, Ethereum’s circulating supply has hit a record 121 million ETH, with staking helping balance new issuance. While the deflationary narrative has softened, long-term price stability depends on whether network demand can match supply growth. Analysts warn that excessive retail FOMO could temporarily stall momentum if sentiment becomes too one-sided.
