- Whale wallets moved ETH rapidly as prices fell below $2,300.
- Staked ETH hit 35 million, signaling trust in Ethereum’s future.
Ethereum’s price has dropped sharply, falling below the $2,300 support level. As Ethereum’s price slipped into the $2,378–$2,412 range, smaller whale wallets moved quickly. According to Lookonchain data, address 0x3FF0 sold 3,158 ETH valued at roughly $7.51 million via CoW Protocol at $2,378. Address 0x4F12 sold 2,298 ETH for $6.24 million at the same level.
Activity on centralized exchanges also increased. Address 0xBA04 deposited 2,645 ETH (worth $6.38 million) into Bybit at $2,412. Around the same time, address 0x2da8 transferred 1,768 ETH (valued at $4.26 million) to Binance at $2,408. These movements indicate preparation for liquidation or active trading amid price uncertainty.
Ethereum’s drop below $2,434 marked a key support breach, as reported by CoinCryptoNewz. The price hovered near $2,260, with resistance zones set at $2,300 and $2,400. Analysts flagged the $2,300–$2,400 area as an inefficiency zone, potentially attracting further downside pressure.
Market Sentiment Weakens as Price Slides 7.43%
Ethereum is now trading at $2,256.24, down 7.43% over 24 hours, per CoinMarketCap data. Its market cap has decreased to $272.37 billion, while 24-hour trading volume climbed 7.00% to $22.43 billion. The day started at $2,426.90 before sell pressure pushed ETH under $2,300. Current support stands at $2,250.
Circulating ETH supply remains at 120.72 million. Analysts note that unless Ethereum can reclaim the $2,434 level, sentiment may remain bearish. The liquidity sweep observed around $2,420 signals growing caution among traders. Increased trading volume during the decline shows intensified activity but little sign of a recovery.
Staked ETH Surges to 35 Million Despite Price Drop
Despite the recent dip, staking on the Ethereum network has hit a new milestone. According to CryptoRank data, as of June 21, 2025, over 35 million ETH had been locked into staking contracts, representing 28.3% of the total ETH supply.
The staked ETH chart shows steady growth since mid-2024. Even when prices dropped below $2,000 in early 2025, staking participation continued to rise. At press time, Ethereum is recovering around the $3,000 level, while the staking total has surpassed previous highs.
Analysts point to this trend as a signal of investor confidence in Ethereum’s proof-of-stake model. Long-term validators appear committed to the network, reinforcing decentralization and security. The growing number of staked coins offsets short-term market moves and reflects faith in Ethereum’s roadmap.
