Whales Gone Wild: Ethereum’s $4.4K Plunge 🌊💸

Key Takeaways (Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Dip) 🍿

Why are whales selling Ethereum? 🐳💨

One particularly moody whale decided to dump 45,000 ETH (a cool $208 million) because, apparently, $4,800 resistance is the new black. Or maybe it just needed cash for a yacht upgrade. 🚤

What’s next for ETH price action? 🎢

If $4,430 support breaks, ETH could tumble 12% to $3,860. But don’t worry, the ADX is as weak as my commitment to a keto diet, so the downside might not be *that* dramatic. 🥑

Ethereum [ETH] traders are on high alert, clutching their coffee mugs and refreshing charts like it’s Black Friday. Why? Because whales are splashing around like it’s feeding time at SeaWorld. 🐋

One particularly large sea creature offloaded tens of thousands of ETH, causing a price pullback sharper than my wit. Coincidence? I think not. 🧐

With technical charts blinking like a neon sign in Vegas and on-chain data showing less activity than a Tuesday night book club, AMBCrypto is here to ask: Is this the start of a deeper correction, or just a whale’s midlife crisis? 🌋

Whale Dumps $70 Million on Bitfinex (Because Why Not?) 💰🚽

According to SpotOnChain, a whale unloaded 15,000 ETH ($70.15 million) on Bitfinex. But wait, there’s more! The same whale sold 30,000 ETH ($138.40 million) over the past two days at an average price of $4,612. Because, you know, why hold onto billions when you can just sell it all? 🤷‍♂️

Despite the sell-off, this whale still holds 70,785 ETH ($332.4 million) across four wallets. Because even whales need a rainy day fund. ☔

This coincided with ETH’s 5% intraday drop, as the asset struggled to stay above the $4,860 resistance zone. At press time, ETH traded at $4,490, down 4.7% in 24 hours, with trading volume spiking 26.6% to $57.16 billion. Because nothing says “sell-off” like a surge in volume. 📉

Rising volume amid falling prices? Classic corrective phase behavior. Or, as I like to call it, “the crypto rollercoaster.” 🎡

Bearish Pattern Forms Near Key Resistance (Or: The Sky Is Falling) ☁️⬇️

According to the TradingView daily chart, ETH formed a bearish engulfing candlestick pattern near $4,860. Because nothing says “doom” like a candlestick. 🕯️

The altcoin is now hovering near $4,430, a level that’s been its emotional support animal for the past week. If this breaks, we could see a 12% correction to $3,860. But hey, at least the Supertrend indicator is still green, so there’s that. 🌈

The ADX is at 21, below the trend-strength threshold, so the momentum is as weak as my willpower around a donut shop. 🍩

Ethereum Network Activity Declines (Or: The Party’s Over) 🎉👎

CryptoQuant data shows Ethereum’s Active Addresses dropped from 460,449 to 403,093 in 24 hours. Because who needs adoption when you can have a good old-fashioned sell-off? 🤖

Traders Turn Defensive (Or: Everyone’s Got a Bunker Now) 🛡️

Analyst Ali Martinez pointed out that ETH’s $4,000-$4,800 range is a “danger zone,” triggering corrections since 2021. Because apparently, Ethereum likes to live dangerously. 🎢

Traders are bracing for impact, with short positions surging like my caffeine intake on Mondays. ☕

According to CoinGlass, ETH’s liquidation levels are $4,407 and $4,553.30. Traders hold $581.3 million in longs and $1.31 billion in shorts. Because nothing says “bearish” like a billion dollars in shorts. 🐻

So, is this the start of a deeper correction, or just another day in the crypto circus? Grab your popcorn and stay tuned. 🍿
