Ethereum (ETH) has fallen below the critical $4,000 level amid renewed market uncertainty following comments from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.<\/p>\n

Powell\u2019s indication that the latest 25-basis-point rate cut may be the last of 2025 has fueled caution across both traditional and crypto markets. As a result, the Ethereum price is at slightly above $3,900, marking a 2.2% daily decline, with Bitcoin and other major altcoins also in the red.<\/p>\n

The broader pullback saw Ethereum ETFs<\/a> record $81.44 million in outflows, led by Fidelity\u2019s FETH at $69.49 million. Only BlackRock\u2019s ETHA fund showed resilience, posting $21.36 million in inflows. This shift follows two consecutive days of positive ETF activity, indicating profit-taking and reduced risk appetite among traders.<\/p>\n

Institutional Demand Grows Even as the Ethereum Price Weakens<\/strong><\/h2>\n

While the Ethereum price slipped, institutional accumulation has intensified. Data shows that institutions now hold 4.1% of Ethereum\u2019s total supply, surpassing Bitcoin\u2019s 3.6% for the first time. Analysts attribute this shift to the GENIUS Act, which provides a clear framework for stablecoin and on-chain finance regulation.<\/p>\n

This policy clarity has boosted institutional trust in Ethereum<\/a> as the backbone of DeFi and tokenized RWAs. Despite the current weakness, many funds continue to add exposure, anticipating Ethereum\u2019s Web3 Dominance.<\/p>\n

Technically, the Ethereum price shows mixed signals. RSI sits at 44, and the MACD line remains below the signal line, both pointing to fading bullish momentum.<\/p>\n

Analysts caution that if ETH fails to reclaim $4,000, it could revisit support zones around $3,850\u2013$3,750. A decisive close above $4,100, however, may renew bullish sentiment toward $4,400\u2013$4,500.<\/p>\n

On-Chain Activity Reaches Record Highs Amid Low Fees<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Interestingly, Ethereum\u2019s network<\/a> fundamentals remain robust even as price momentum cools. On-chain activity has surged to record highs, with daily transactions and unique active addresses breaking all-time records.<\/p>\n

Similarly, gas fees remain near historic lows, signaling improved scalability driven by Layer-2 networks such as Arbitrum, Optimism, and Base.<\/p>\n

This efficiency milestone showcases Ethereum\u2019s technological evolution, from its proof-of-stake transition to the upcoming EIP-4844 (proto-danksharding) upgrade.<\/p>\n

Analysts believe this combination of strong institutional demand and record network usage, despite short-term price pressure, positions the Ethereum price for a sustained recovery once macroeconomic headwinds ease.<\/p>\n
