Last week, crypto analyst Ali Martinez noted that whales have significantly increased their holdings of Ethereum (ETH) over the past week, accumulating more than 330,000 ETH, valued at over $1 billion. This surge in large-scale buying activity could signal growing institutional interest in ETH, potentially influencing market trends in the coming days.
Martinez reported that nearly $2 billion of ETH has been withdrawn from exchanges over the past month, which could lead to a further Ethereum price surge on the upside. However, the analyst stated that for Ethereum (ETH) to experience a bullish breakout, it needs to surpass several critical resistance levels. On-chain data highlights the $3,360–$3,450 range as a significant supply zone.
Technically, ETH seems to be forming the right shoulder of a head-and-shoulders pattern, with the neckline at $4,000. A decisive breakout above this level could trigger a rally, potentially pushing the price toward $7,000.
