accumulation.<\/li>\n<li>Heavy ETH liquidations are fueling bearish sentiment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ethereum (ETH) finds itself at a critical juncture as price tests support near $3,800 after a sharp pullback from recent highs.<\/p>\n<p>Analysts are now weighing the technical damage against on-chain signals that point in different directions.<\/p>\n<h2>Ethereum price under bear pressure<\/h2>\n<p>Recently, the price of ETH slipped below $4,000 and is now trading around the mid-$3,800s.<\/p>\n<p>The 24-hour range shows intraday swings between $3,833.75 and $4,051.26, while analysts single out the $3,800\u2013$3,850 band as the immediate line of defence and $3,500\u2013$3,400 as deeper liquidity zones if sellers push further.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the Ethereum price has fallen beneath the clustered 20, 50 and 100-EMAs, which currently sit roughly between $4,083 and $4,238 and now act as resistance.<\/p>\n<p>Momentum indicators have also weakened, with the four\u2011hour RSI sitting near 29, indicating oversold conditions that often precede short relief rallies.<\/p>\n<h2>Whales offload as sharks accumulate<\/h2>\n<p>On-chain flow metrics show notable exchange inflows, with a recent spike of about $66.7 million moved onto spot venues.<\/p>\n<p>That movement coincided with ETH dropping below $4,000, and it signals that some holders are routing coins to exchanges to sell.<\/p>\n<p>Large wallets holding more than 100,000 ETH have trimmed positions sharply, a development many analysts interpret as increased selling by the largest holders.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, mid\u2011sized entities \u2014 addresses holding between 10,000 and 100,000 ETH \u2014 are accumulating and taking a more prominent role in on\u2011chain ownership dynamics as highlighted by Joao Wedson.<\/p>\n<p>This transfer of supply from the very largest wallets toward a concentrated set of mid\u2011sized \u201csharks\u201d has nudged the Gini coefficient higher after months of decline, underscoring renewed ownership concentration among wealthier addresses.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The number of Ethereum whales is dropping sharply \u2013 and the sharks are now in the game!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the sharks (10k\u2013100k ETH holders) who have been accumulating and taking a larger share of the market.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Gini coefficient has stopped falling and is starting to rise again,\u2026 <a

also viewed as a double\u2011edged sword by others since it reduces one class of outsized selling but increase concentration risk.<\/p>\n<h2>Liquidations spoil the party as ETFs see hyped inflows<\/h2>\n<p>The Ethereum price correction has triggered heavy market liquidations, with roughly $409 million in Ethereum long positions liquidated.<\/p>\n<p>Funding rates on ETH futures have also flashed negative recently, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/currencies\/ETH\">according to Coinglass data<\/a>, adding to the momentum behind short\u2011term selling.<\/p>\n<p>Institutional flows, especially on the Ethereum ETFs front, also paint a mixed picture, with some funds recording large inflows while others see significant outflows.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, over the recent week, more than $560 million reportedly moved into ETH\u2011linked funds, with BlackRock\u2011led products among the largest recipients, even as REX\u2011Osprey launched the first US staking Ether ETF.<\/p>\n<h2>Ethereum price forecast<\/h2>\n<p>Views among market commentators diverge sharply, and long\u2011term bulls like Ted Pillows argue that ETH could ultimately trend well above $10,000 this cycle, though he anticipates a short\u2011term revisit to the $3,600\u2013$3,800 area.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24ETH&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">$ETH<\/a> is going above $10,000 this cycle.<\/p>\n<p>But before that, a correction will happen, and right now, it&#8217;s happening.<\/p>\n<p>I think ETH could drop towards the $3,600-$3,800 level before a reversal and a new ATH. <a

would ease bearish pressure and could open a path back to $5,000.<\/p>\n<p>Conversely, a failure to hold critical supports would expose lower bands at $3,162 and $2,874, while the 200\u2011day EMA sits as a structural defence near $3,350.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6
