Institutions offloading Ether, $45M sent to Coinbase in hours

News

Ethereum (ETH) is finding it hard to follow Bitcoin’s (BTC) bullish trajectory as high selling pressure keeps pouring in. In the recent moves, 2 institutions are going in for an Ether sell-off, and that too when the second largest crypto recorded a slight recovery over the last 7 days.

ETH recorded a surge of more than 5% over the last 7 days, however, it is still trailing down by around 20% in the last 90 days. This reflects that Ether might have seen a jump in the shorter period but it is still failing to recover on the longer time frame, which opens up a crucial window for investors.

Cumberland and ParaFi dump $45M in ETH

Data provided by Lookonchain shows that Cumberland and ParaFi Capital had made their move to capitalize on the recent ETH surge. It mentioned that a wallet linked to Cumberland deposited 11,800 Ethereum (approx. worth $31.88 million) into the crypto exchange Coinbase. This deposit turns out to be one of the biggest dumps made by Cumberland. Earlier, on August 26, it had deposited 6,439 ETH (approx. worth $17.66 million) to Binance.

ParaFi Capital is another key institution that had considered dumping Ethereum amid recent gains. It withdrew 5,134 ETH (approx. worth $13.83 million) from Lido and moved ahead to deposit it on Coinbase Prime.

Ancient ETH whale wakes up

As per the data shared by Spot On Chain, an ancient Ethereum whale cashed in another 12,979 ETH for around $34.3 million this week as the second biggest crypto saw a rebound rally. This whale made its first move after being silent for the last 4 months.

It highlighted that the whale had withdrawn 21,623 Ether from ShapeShift and Poloniex back in 2016 at a price of $7.074 per ETH. The whale wallets have sold more than 15.5K Ether since May, making $43.5 million at an average selling price of $2,739. The whale still holds 5,760 Ether.

Ether ETFs flip to green

ETH is holding on to the crucial $2,600 price level with just a 4.8% surge registered in the last 30 days. Its 24-hour trading volume dropped by 7%, standing at $15.99 billion.

Spot Ether ETFs saw inflows surpassing $84 million this week, reversing weeks of outflows. Yesterday, the inflows totaled around $58 million with Fidelity’s FETH leading the pack pulling in $42.5 million.

BlackRock’s ETHA followed with $11.5 million in inflows, while Grayscale’s ETHE saw $10.7 million in outflows. Earlier in the week, Ether ETFs recorded $80 million in outflows, mostly from Grayscale’s ETHE, before BlackRock reversed the trend with renewed inflows.
