While the whale’s Ethereum position is currently showing an unrealized loss of $20.4 million, their confidence in the cryptocurrency’s potential long-term value remains strong.
The whale’s actions stand out against the backdrop of Ethereum’s recent price decline. At press time, Ethereum’s price dropped by 5.24% in the last 24 hours to around $3,090, as seen on tracking platforms.
The price dip follows a multi-month low of $2,621 on November 21, showing the ongoing volatility in the market. However, the whale’s decision to continue increasing their Ethereum holdings signals a bet on Ethereum’s future upside.
Ethereum Price Poised for Potential Rally to $5,000
Ethereum’s price is showing signs of a potential parabolic rally, fueled by historical trends. The price recently bounced off levels closely aligning with the realized price of whales holding at least 100,000 ETH.
This price level has historically been a strong support level. According to CryptoQuant analysts, Ethereum has only traded near this realized price four times in the last five years, each time preceding significant price increases.

In particular, Ethereum experienced a 260% rally earlier this year after trading close to the realized price, rising to an all-time high of $5,000. Currently, Ethereum’s price is around $3,090, presenting a potential opportunity for future gains.
If history repeats itself, Ethereum could see significant demand from treasury companies and a possible return of spot ETF inflows. This could propel Ethereum toward the $5,000 mark.
