Ethereum Foundation Wallets Haven’t Made Large Outflows This Cycle So Far
In a new on X, the market intelligence platform IntoTheBlock has discussed a pattern that Ethereum has witnessed alongside its previous market peaks.The pattern in question is related to the netflows for the wallets associated with the Ethereum Foundation. The ETH Foundation is a non-profit entity supporting the cryptocurrency and its ecosystem.
As is visible in the above graph, the netflows for the Ethereum Foundation have generally taken negative values during the past bull markets. Negative netflows naturally correlate to a net amount of ETH movement away from the wallets connected to the company.
Interestingly, the indicator has seen especially large red spikes around the tops of the cryptocurrency. As IntoTheBlock explains,Historically, during each bull market, the Foundation has strategically sold substantial amounts, often aligning these sales almost perfectly with market peaks.The chart shows that the indicator’s value has been more or less neutral during the past few months, even though the asset’s price has increased significantly. This suggests that the Ethereum Foundation hasn’t been making any major sales during this bull market. Given the historical pattern, this may be a sign that a top isn’t yet here for the cryptocurrency, or at least the organization doesn’t judge it to be so. Another explanation, however, could be that the non-profit entity has changed its strategy for this new cycle, meaning that the past trend would no longer hold the same weight.
