Ethereum saw significant activities with transactions on Coinbase Prime and staking at Lido by President Trump’s, World Liberty Finance (WLFi), operations. Over the last week, a steady inflow of ETH, climaxing in large transfers totaling approximately $260 Million. WLFi Making Big Moves To break it down, recent transactions highlight a direct transfer of $200 Million worth of Ethereum to Coinbase Prime. Concurrently, an additional $60 Million in Ethereum has been staked with Lido, demonstrating a strategic diversification and securing of assets within blockchain finance. The consistent rise in Ethereum holdings from 500 ETH to over 2,000 ETH in just a few days, with the most significant inflows coinciding with these large transfers.

Conversely, the heavy concentration of assets in specific platforms like Coinbase and Lido may also expose these holdings to risks associated with centralized exchanges and staking pools, including potential regulatory scrutiny or operational vulnerabilities. The movement of such large amounts of ETH highlights confidence in the long-term value of the asset, likely anticipating higher returns from staking yields and appreciation in ETH’s market price. Ethereum Exchange Reserves Ethereum Exchange Reserves revealed a significant trend: reserves have dropped to their lowest since January 2024, marking a notable decrease to 18,713,060 ETH. This stark decline in exchange reserves aligned with a downward price trajectory, with ETH’s price sliding to $2,441.57. This depletion of reserves typically suggests that fewer ETH are available for trading on exchanges.

Conversely, the decrease in reserves could also heighten price volatility. With fewer ETH available on exchanges, any large buy or sell orders could result in more pronounced price swings. If the broader market sentiment turns negative, or if there is a significant sell-off, the reduced liquidity could exacerbate price declines. Stochastic RSI on Ethereum Price Action Ethereum saw a clear rising wedge pattern, currently indicating a potential rally as the Stochastic RSI suggested that ETH was oversold. This setup on the weekly time frame emphasized the reliability of the signal for an impending uptrend. Ethereum’s current trading price within this pattern positions it just below a significant resistance level, which, if surpassed, could catalyze a substantial increase. The rising wedge pattern, traditionally a bearish signal, contrasts with the optimistic indication from the Stochastic RSI. This oscillator has dipped into the oversold territory, which historically precedes a rally. The divergence between the pattern and the oscillator indicated the potential for a strong bullish reaction, should ETH break through the upper boundary of the wedge near $3,600.

This downward adjustment would align with the pattern’s traditional interpretation, possibly sending prices toward the lower support levels near $2,100. A successful breach above the resistance could see Ethereum testing previous highs around $6,800, while failure to overcome this barrier might reinforce bearish sentiments, pressuring the asset back to lower supports.
