With the crypto market turning slightly bearish, the Ethereum <\/a>price has lost the $2,300 mark, raising questions about the stability of its recent upswing. Amid this sideways price action, a report shows that a fading bullish sentiment among Ethereum whales is evidenced by a significant decline in their holdings.<\/p>\n

Large ETH Players\u2019 Portfolio Shrinks Sharply<\/h2>\n

After examining Ethereum whales<\/a>\u2018 holdings, Ali Charts, a seasoned market expert and trader, revealed<\/a> that these key investors are exhibiting a trend not seen in over a year. While ETH\u2019s price is slowly losing its upside momentum, a major wave of selling has rattled the ETH market.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This heightened selling activity was observed among large investors or whales holding between 1,000 ETH and 10,000 ETH as they dump nearly a quarter of their holdings in the face of uncertainty. Such a trend underscores a major decrease in exposure, which raises questions about confidence and short-term market stability.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since October 6, 2025, Ethereum holders between 1,000 and 10,000 ETH have undergone a notable regime shift in their market activity. Prior to the shift, the cohort was spotted in a steady accumulation phase. During the period, these investors\u2019 ETH portfolio saw a rise from 12.95 million ETH in April 2025 to a peak of 15.95 million ETH by October 6, 2025. Fast forward to May 2026, and this behavior has flipped again<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Ethereum\"<\/p>\n

As seen in the chart shared by Ali Charts, the amount of ETH held by these mid-tier whales has dropped from 15.95 million to about 12.52 million, which represents an approximately 21.5% decrease in their total position. This simply implies a dramatic change in positioning from some of the network\u2019s largest investors.<\/p>\n

Ali Charts have flagged this development as a supply overhang. According to the expert, this suggests that the road to the $3,000 may require a fresh wave of demand from institutional<\/a> or retail investors to offset whale distribution.<\/p>\n

It is worth noting that a few days ago, ETH whales went on a buying spree. During the period, over 140,000 ETH, valued at around $322 million, were scooped up<\/a> by these key players. When high-net-worth holders are buying more, it is a sign that smart money is positioning for a breakout.<\/p>\n

Tokenized Treasuries Surges On The ETH Network<\/h2>\n

Even with the Ethereum price still significantly down from its all-time high, this drop has not hindered institutional adoption, which is currently accelerating. Coin Bureau has reported<\/a> a surge in tokenized treasuries across the leading network.<\/p>\n

The chart shows that the ETH network <\/a>just surpassed $8 billion in tokenized US treasuries for the first time in its history. The rise in blockchain-based sovereign debt instruments underscores Ethereum\u2019s growing relevance as a foundation for actual financial assets.<\/p>\n

In addition, the week experienced the expansion of Stripe\u2019s BRIDGE stablecoins to Celo and plans for Canada\u2019s first regulated stablecoin on Ethereum. Despite the growth, ETH\u2019s price <\/a>continues to struggle to break key short-term resistance.<\/p>\n
