A long-dormant whale, which had been inactive for two years, recently <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/lookonchain\/status\/1947349747414548495?s=46\" target=\"_blank\">resurfaced<\/a> to join the trend. This wallet scooped up 34,033 ETH  in minutes for about $128.68 million, signaling fresh confidence in the asset at current price levels.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>Institutional demand is also fueling this momentum. Asset manager BlackRock has spent approximately $1.76 billion buying ETH over the past week, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/arkham\/status\/1947384607340392498?s=46\" target=\"_blank\">according<\/a> to Arkham Intelligence. Earlier today, the firm purchased another 27,158 ETH, worth around $100 million. <\/p>\n<p>BlackRock\u2019s accumulation comes as demand for Ethereum ETFs continues to surge, with inflows hitting record levels since their inception.<\/p>\n<p>However, not everyone is buying. Lookonchain data shows some large holders are already taking profits. One tracked whale recently <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/lookonchain\/status\/1947487634672218255?s=46\" target=\"_blank\">sold<\/a> 8,005 ETH at $3,751 for $30.03 million. Just two weeks earlier, the same wallet had bought 9,582 ETH for $26.11 million at around $2,725, securing a $9.87 million profit, a 38% gain in just 14 days.<\/p>\n<p>This selling pressure likely contributed to today\u2019s dip, which saw Ethereum hit an intraday low of $3,620 before rebounding to $3,649. ETH is down about 3.1% in the past 24 hours and sits 5.2% below this week\u2019s high of $3,850.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the pullback, ETH is still up 23% on the week and 62.3% over the past month, keeping market sentiment positive for higher price targets.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The recent price slide hasn\u2019t deterred big-money players, as large transactions over the past 24 hours show whales adding to their positions.
