Highlights
ETH price has dropped by 5.7% in the past 24 hours to $2821.34, indicating a bearish trend in the market.
1. Institutional inflow: BitMine's increased ETH holdings and Bitwise's bullish forecast indicate enhanced institutional confidence, suggesting potential future price increases.
2. Technical weakness: The ETH price has fallen by 5.7% in the past 24 hours, with RSI values showing an oversold condition. If key support levels are broken, prices may decline further.
3. Regulatory easing: The Federal Reserve has withdrawn guidelines restricting banks' participation in cryptocurrencies, reducing regulatory uncertainty and potentially facilitating the integration of cryptocurrencies with the broader financial system.
Highlights
1. Institutional adoption: Asset management firm Bitwise predicts that driven by institutional adoption and regulatory clarity, the prices of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana will reach new all-time highs by 2026. They expect ETFs to absorb more than 100% of the new market supply of these cryptocurrencies.
2. Strategic holdings: BitMine Immersion significantly increased its holdings by nearly 70,000 ETH last week, now holding 3% of the total, indicating long-term confidence in Ethereum's value.
3. Regulatory clarity: The Federal Reserve has withdrawn the 2023 guidelines restricting banks' participation in cryptocurrencies, reducing regulatory risks and opening pathways for banks to develop cryptocurrency services.
Risks
1. Decline in network activity: Ethereum network activity has reached a seven-month low, with the 7-day average of active addresses at 327,000, indicating a decline in user engagement.
2. Breach of key technical support levels: Technical analysis indicates that if the monthly price closes below the key support level of $2,930, the ETH price may further decline to $2,000, leading to more losses.
3. Concentrated holding risk: Multiple large holders face significant unrealized losses on their ETH long positions, with liquidation prices close to current prices, signaling potential chain liquidations.
