On-chain data shows that ETH held on centralized trading platforms has dropped to levels not seen since 2016, which makes it a new nine-year low. This decline in reserves is significant because it relays a reduction in sell-side pressure on top of the demand Ethereum is currently witnessing.<\/p>\n<p>As shown in the chart image below, the total Ethereum reserve on exchanges has been on a free fall since the beginning of 2025. At the time of writing, the total Ethereum reserve on crypto exchanges is at 18.7 million ETH, which is just about 15.5% of the total ETH circulating supply.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-546457\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Ethereum-chart-from-CryptoQuant.png?w=512&amp;resize=512%2C288\" alt=\"Ethereum\" width=\"512\" height=\"288\"><\/p>\n<h2>Massive Whale Buys Shows Confidence<\/h2>\n<p>Ethereum\u2019s exchange reserves aren\u2019t just dropping by chance; they\u2019re being<a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-foundation-loses-top%E2%80%913\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \"> actively drained by whales.<\/a> According to data from on-chain transaction tracker Lookonchain, major investors have been aggressively buying ETH in recent weeks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Since July 9, a total of eleven newly activated wallets have collectively accumulated 722,152 ETH, valued at $2.77 billion.

One of these wallets received over 138,000 ETH, worth more than $531 million, between July 18 and July 23.<\/p>\n<p>Supporting the bullish outlook is a major purchase by The Ether Reserve LLC, a treasury management arm of The Ether Machine.

This brings their total holdings to approximately 334,757 ETH, with an additional $407 million allocated for further Ethereum purchases.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As more capital is committed to ETH in this manner, and with exchange reserves nearing historic lows, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/ethereum\/ethereum-price-crash-4000\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">the conditions for a rally <\/a>to new all-time highs appear to be falling into place.
