Ethereum Whale Activity Hints at Potential Upside

Despite a recent price pause, Ethereum remains well-positioned. As it approaches a key resistance level of $3,180, experts suggest that a breakout could push Ethereum to new all-time highs.

That said, one might speculate on the recent whale activities, which increased even though the price didn’t move significantly. This could be due to various reasons (like accumulation or redistribution, market anticipation of a big event such as upcoming rate cuts, or network upgrades) that they expect to affect the price soon. 

Or it could simply mean that whales may be adjusting their portfolios, moving Ethereum into wallets or exchanges to maintain liquidity without actively trading it. Market watchers remain optimistic, recommending strategic trading as Ethereum builds momentum toward a potential price surge.
