Even though ETH has lost the pivotal price level due to a broader market pullback, a certain group of investors is now starting to show heightened demand for the leading altcoin.<\/p>\n<h2>Big Ethereum Wallets Re-Entering The Market<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/ethereum-news\/ethereum-market-structure-strengthens-binance-netflows-point-to-long-term-conviction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">The Ethereum market<\/a> appears to be shifting once again into a period of demand and accumulation. ETH\u2019s holder behavior is undergoing a decisive shift as observed among major investors or whales, who have returned to accumulation mode.<\/p>\n<p>After several weeks of relative caution, Mlik Road, a crypto and macro researcher, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MilkRoad\/status\/2005608330904096880?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">outlined<\/a> that large ETH holders have been steadily increasing their holdings in the past few days. This steady accumulation is being carried out by wallet addresses holding more than 1,000 ETH, signaling renewed confidence in the altcoin\u2019s long-term prospects.<\/p>\n<p>Data from the Ethereum Retail and Large Investor Holdings metric shows that <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-big-wallets-are-back\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">whale holders<\/a> have acquired over 120,000 ETH valued at approximately $350 million since December 26. With the price of ETH facing volatility, this action indicates that smart money investors might be preparing themselves ahead of a major upward move, even if the price movement is still measured.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-649472 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Ethereum-chart-from-Milk-Road.jpeg?w=640&amp;resize=640%2C359\" alt=\"Ethereum\" width=\"640\" height=\"359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Ethereum-chart-from-Milk-Road.jpeg?w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Ethereum-chart-from-Milk-Road.jpeg?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Ethereum-chart-from-Milk-Road.jpeg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Ethereum-chart-from-Milk-Road.jpeg?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Ethereum-chart-from-Milk-Road.jpeg?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Ethereum-chart-from-Milk-Road.jpeg?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/p>\n<p>As a result of the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-exchange-balances-fall\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">massive accumulation<\/a>, wallet addresses containing 1,000+ ETH currently control roughly 70% of the entire supply in circulation. A look at the chart shows that this share held by the cohort has been on a steady increase since late 2024, reflecting the unwavering resilience of the investors despite multiple sideways movements.<\/p>\n<p>Should this behavior continue, Milk Road highlighted that the market may not fully be pricing in where the smart money anticipates ETH to head next.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Institutions Are Doubling Down on ETH<\/h2>\n<p>ETH accumulation has also experienced a significant uptick at <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-institution-accumulation-continues-bitmine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">the institutional level<\/a> as many large corporations double down on the leading altcoin.
