Ethereum continues its weak trend after breaking below the key support level of $2,000. Market analysts warn that short-term "downside pressure" remains dominant, with traders focusing on the defense of the $1,800–$1,750 support zone. CryptoQuant analyst PelinayPA pointed out that ETH's estimated leverage ratio remains relatively high at around 0.74, and the funding rate has been positive since April, indicating crowded long positions despite the persistent price weakness. The RSI is around 31, approaching oversold territory but without a clear reversal signal yet. U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs have recorded net outflows for 13 consecutive trading days, totaling approximately $695 million, with a single-day maximum outflow of about $121 million, reflecting a continued cooling in institutional allocation demand.Currently, ETH maintains a weak structure against the backdrop of high leverage, crowded longs, and persistent ETF outflows. The short-term risk is biased to the downside, making the $1,800 support level a key observation point for both market sentiment and technicals. (Cointelegrap)
according to Onchain Lens monitoring, a whale sold 10,000 ETH in the past 30 minutes, with a transaction amount of $19.82 million. Over the past week, this whale has sold a total of 45,000 ETH, with a total transaction amount of $92.15 million and an average selling price of $2,048.
According to Lookonchain monitoring, US Bitcoin ETFs recorded a net outflow of 4,275 BTC today, Ethereum ETFs saw a net outflow of 47,308 ETH, and Solana ETFs had a net inflow of 14,169 SOL.
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have experienced net capital outflows for nine consecutive trading days, totaling approximately $2.84 billion. This marks the longest consecutive losing streak since the product's launch in 2024, surpassing the previous record set on February 8, 2025. BlackRock's IBIT was the primary source of these outflows.Analysts indicate that this round of capital outflows reflects a notable cooling in institutional demand for Bitcoin ETF exposure. Meanwhile, the market is showing signs of divergence: Hyperliquid-related ETFs and certain XRP spot ETFs continue to record capital inflows. In contrast, spot Ethereum ETFs have also faced capital outflows for 13 consecutive days, with cumulative outflows reaching approximately $694 million. This suggests that capital within crypto asset ETFs is undergoing a reallocation. (Cointelegraph)

10x Research stated that while Ethereum’s current price appears cheap, “cheap” does not equate to a buying opportunity. It noted that the Ethereum options market has recently seen unusually large purchases of put options, with inflows into the $1,800 and $1,900 strike prices approximately five times higher than normal levels.
Nasdaq-listed company Bit Digital CEO Sam Tabar stated on X that he has purchased more ETH.Sam Tabar explained: "Many people look at ETH's price performance over the past two years and conclude it's finished. But I believe they are looking for the wrong catalyst. The repricing of ETH was never meant to be built on retail narratives. For an asset backed by such a massive infrastructure, that kind of narrative is simply too fragile. The real catalyst is institutional demand. And the pace of institutional demand never follows the sentiment on social media. It only materializes when compliance frameworks are ready, custody systems are established, and the regulatory environment is stable enough for a CFO to give the green light. And that moment is closer than what market prices reflect."He added: "I hold ETH because I have a fiduciary obligation to make smart capital allocation decisions. And at the price I bought in, ETH meets that standard."
According to Decrypt, Standard Chartered analysts stated in a report released on Thursday that Ethereum’s current price does not yet reflect its growing network transaction activity or the rising total value locked (TVL) in decentralized finance (DeFi). The bank reiterated its price targets of $4,000 by year-end and $40,000 by the end of this decade. The institution noted that Ethereum has already established dominance in the stablecoin and tokenized asset sectors and stands to benefit from Wall Street’s ongoing migration toward digital asset infrastructure. The report also indicated that if real-world assets (RWA) grow 50-fold over the coming years, on-chain transaction volume and TVL on Ethereum could continue to reach new highs.
