Ethereum whales raised $230 million in ETH in one week.
In the past week, some of the biggest Ethereum whales holding between 1 and 10 million ETH have amassed an impressive 100,000 ETH, worth a whopping $230 million.
This aggressive buying stance from influential investors highlights their unwavering belief in Ethereum’s long-term potential despite recent price corrections.
Despite recent price declines, recent signs of Ethereum whale activity suggest continued confidence in the continuation of the bull market.

Price increases are usually caused by excessive buying demand from wealthy investors, and recent whale accumulations indicate this to be the case.
On December 7, Santiment Feed linked a whale accumulation pattern to a surge in ETH, which broke the $2,350 price range to a 19-month high.
In general, whale activity affects cryptocurrency asset prices. The recent activity of ETH whales indicates that a price rally is coming.

There is a lot of buying pressure in the market right now, but caution is needed as the bottom has not yet been reached.
RSI and stochastic neutrality, Ethereum uncertainty
According to data from CryptoQyant, both the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Stochastic are currently in the neutral zone. Despite the buying activity, there is still uncertainty about the true bottom of the market.
We looked at the liquidation heatmap to estimate the likely support levels for Ethereum. Analysis shows an increase in liquidations in the $2,140 to $2,170 range.
This means that the Ethereum price is likely to fall below this level before starting the next bullish bounce. However, for an upside to occur, Ethereum would have to overcome significant resistance levels near $2,380.

Ethereum’s short-term price movements are difficult to predict due to the complex interaction of market indicators and clearing data.
Meanwhile, analysis of the ETH daily price chart shows that the $2,148 price appears to be a near-term support level for the asset. Bulls will be hoping that this level holds to increase the chances of another rally before the end of 2023.
A breakout below may indicate the formation of a more complex bullish continuation chart pattern, similar to a bullish flag. In the shorter term, this pattern could resemble a descending channel and dampen expectations of another big rally in 2023.
The value of Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies is sensitive to a variety of external variables, including general macroeconomic sentiment. Ethereum is already up 81% year-to-date at current prices.
