While Bitcoin continues to consolidate at the $26,000 level, the largest altcoin Ethereum is moving around $1,600.
While ETH is at low levels, whales are also taking advantage of the decline opportunity.
Popular cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez said Ethereum whales purchased 260,000 ETH worth $425 million in 24 hours.
“Ethereum whales appear to have purchased 260,000 ETH worth approximately $425 million in the last 24 hours.”
ETH has experienced strong selling pressure recently and is holding $1,600 as an important support level as whales capitalize on the decline in ETH.
At this point, while it remains unclear whether there will be a further decline for ETH or whether ETH whales will be able to turn this downward trend into a rising trend, Ali Martinez said that there is a possibility that Ethereum will correct up to $ 1,200.
“Ether below $1,680 is a cause for concern.
Because if this level is not maintained, this breakout may pave the way for a significant ETH correction up to $ 1,200.”
Ethereum continues to trade at $1,635 at the time of writing.
