Uma tendência de baixa no gráfico de reservas cambiais do Ethereum destaca um padrão consistente de investidores retirando ETH das bolsas, o que sinaliza uma fase de acumulação. O preço da altcoin despencou mais de 22,5% durante a recente turbulência do mercado, rompendo o nível crítico de suporte de US$ 3.500. No entanto, desde então recuperou uma posição-chave, recuperando-se da média móvel exponencial (EMA) de 200 dólares de US$ 3.100. Os analistas sugerem que o próximo nível de suporte a ser observado é em torno de US$ 2.850. Em meio à atual correção de preço do Ethereum , os investidores estão agora migrando para os mercados para comprar a altcoin, com alguns expressando otimismo de que o ETH traçará um caminho de volta aos US$ 4.000.

Some hours before, LookOnChain revealed that four newly activated whale wallets acquired 8,440 ETH worth $28.43 million from Binance. This substantial purchase coincided with Ethereum’s price rebounding after a steep decline.
Institutional investors’ interest in Ethereum has also surged, evidenced by market activity from public figures like Donald Trump-affiliated World Liberty Finance, which recently purchased 759 ETH worth $2.6 million at current valuations.
The bullish sentiment surrounding Ethereum is further underscored by the continued rise in staked ETH. Per IntoTheBlock data, there’s currently over 54.7 million ETH tokens staked, supported by a base of more than 206,000 unique stakers. This trend suggests long-term optimism among investors who appear committed to holding their ETH positions for the foreseeable future.
Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have also demonstrated strong performance, recording seven consecutive weeks of net inflows. Recent data reveals a record-breaking $1.6 billion in inflows in December alone.
Ethereum ETFs are booming this December, pulling in $1.66B—74% of total inflows since launch.

🚀 BlackRock's ETHA leads, hitting $292M in a day. Fidelity's FETH follows, but ETH ETFs remain highly concentrated, managing ~$11B total.

Nate Geraci, president of The ETF Store, emphasized the significance of these developments in a December 20 post on X, stating that net inflows into ETH ETFs are “on pace with gold ETFs.” He also predicted that inflows would accelerate moving forward.
Analysts predict this uptrend may persist into 2025, particularly if robust spot ETH price performance enhances ETF returns. Furthermore, regulatory approval for ETFs to generate yields from staking could amplify their appeal.
Despite the recent market volatility, Ethereum’s long-term projections remain optimistic. Some analysts foresee the cryptocurrency reaching as high as $8,800, while more conservative estimates, such as those from asset manager VanEck, suggest a cycle peak of $6,000.
VanEck also projects Bitcoin’s price to hit $180,000 by 2025, indicating a strong upward trajectory for major cryptocurrencies even if Ethereum does not outperform Bitcoin in absolute terms.
Ethereum’s resurgence follows a period when it was trading near $4,000 before losing momentum. The current recovery phase demonstrates the cryptocurrency’s resilience, with whales and retail investors alike taking advantage of the price dips to accumulate ETH.
