Ethereum Price Outlook: Why Whale Selling and ETF Outflows Could Drag ETH Lower

Ethereum　　Ethereum Price Outlook: Why Whale Selling and ETF Outflows Could Drag ETH Lower　　The post Ethereum Price Outlook: Why Whale Selling and ETF Outflows Could Drag ETH Lower appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News　　Ethereum price action is beginning to flash fresh warning signs as a combination of whale selling, ETF outflows, and weakening price structure raises concerns over its near-term outlook. As volatility returns and confidence starts to weaken around key levels, traders are increasingly watching whether this shift reflects a temporary cooldown, or something more meaningful.　　That focus is now turning toward why whale selling and ETF outflows could drag ETH price lower, and whether Ethereum is at risk of losing another major support zone.　　Whale Selling Raises Questions Over Ethereum Conviction　　One of the more notable warning signs for Ethereum comes from the behavior of large holders. Recent market data suggests that more than 60 whale wallets holding over 10,000 ETH have either significantly reduced exposure or fully exited positions over recent weeks. Whale movements are closely watched because large holders often react early to changing market conditions, particularly during periods of uncertainty.　　While whale exits do not always signal panic selling, a decline in high-value holders during periods of weakening momentum often

Bitcoin price holds $77K – Can fading spot demand stall BTCs rally？

Bitcoins [$BTC] latest recovery revealed a widening split between rising blockchain activity and weakening U.S. spot-market conviction. Earlier rallies often strengthened as Coinbase demand rose alongside broader ecosystem participation and institutional accumulation.　　More recently, however, Coinbase Premium weakened to negative $66.8 even with Bitcoin near $77,200. Before May, the premium had only dipped to negative $62.6 while Bitcoin traded closer to $68,000.　　Source: CryptoQuant　　That divergence suggested offshore demand on Binance continued outpacing U.S.-based buying pressure despite higher prices. Base network revenue also climbed to near roughly $972,000, surpassing late-March levels near $917,000 due to stronger blockchain usage.　　Source: CryptoQuant　　That imbalance implied Bitcoins rally still lacks broad organic spot participation, potentially leaving momentum vulnerable if offshore liquidity and derivatives demand begin weakening further.　　Bitcoin demand growth collapses 　　Bitcoins broader recovery weakened once total demand sharply reversed beneath the neutral zero region during May. Earlier momentum had already pushed demand growth above 150,000 $BTC before rapidly collapsing toward negative territory again.　　The reversal mattered because similar demand breakdowns previously aligned with sharp Bitcoin pullbacks from roughly $120,000 toward lower support regions.　　Price also stabilized near the broader $77,000 zone while total demand continued falling, reinforcing weakening participation beneath the recovery structure. Futures-driven momentum initially fueled upside expansion through

Fairshake PACs $20M backing pays off in three US state primaries

Political action committees (PACs) aligned with and funded by the cryptocurrency industry notched a series of wins in three US state primaries on Tuesday, potentially setting a precedent for the 2026 midterm elections.　　The Fairshake PAC and its affiliates poured a combined $20 million into supportive media for the races. The committee, largely funded by crypto companies Ripple Labs and Coinbase, is behind the Defend American Jobs PAC in supporting Republican candidates and Protect Progress PAC for Democrats considered to be “pro-crypto.”　　Four Republican candidates and one Democrat won their respective primaries for US Senate and House of Representatives seats in Georgia and Kentucky, while one Alabama Republican will go to a runoff election.　　“Fairshakes 6-0 sweep tonight was a clear victory for pro-crypto leaders across the country,” Fairshake spokesperson Geoff Vetter told Cointelegraph. He said:　　“This powerful bipartisan mandate is being heard across America from Georgia to Alabama to Kentucky.”　　According to Federal Election Commission filings, Protect Progress spent more than $4.2 million to support Jasmine Clark, a Georgia representative running in the state‘s 13th Congressional district. Defend American Jobs reported similar expenditures for media to support Republican candidates: $455,000 for Clay Fuller in Georgia’s 14th district, $709,000 for Houston Gaines in Georgia‘s 10th

500 Dormant Bitcoin Move After 12 Years as Early Investors React to Post-Quantum Risks

Analyst CryptoQuant Maartunn detected a major on-chain transaction in which 500 $BTC, which had remained completely dormant for more than 10 years, were moved to a new address for the first time. On the Spent Output Age Bands chart for 10-year-old Bitcoin, this activity appeared as an isolated green spike.　　The transfer of such an old wallet coincided with the release of major research and news in the quantum technology sector, namely Glassnodes report on Bitcoins quantum security. According to analysts, 30.2% (6.04 million $BTC) of the total market supply is already potentially vulnerable to future quantum attacks.　　500 $BTC that hadnt moved in 10 years just moved.　　Is the quantum threat forcing whales to act？　　The vulnerability is tied to exposed public keys on addresses from the Satoshi Nakamoto era and poor wallet hygiene, including address reuse and custodial storage practices. A quantum computer could hypothetically derive a private key only where the public key has already been exposed on-chain.　　Exchanges account for around 1.66 million $BTC within this risk category. Approximately 5% of Coinbase-held $BTC is considered vulnerable, compared to around 85% for Binance and nearly 100% for Bitfinex.　　Operationally Unsafe Bitcoin by Entity, Source: Glassnode　　At the same time, the computing industry is demonstrating

Nearly 10% of Bitcoin supply is ‘structurally unsafe’ from quantum breakthrough: Glassnode

Nearly 10% of the total Bitcoin supply is considered “structurally unsafe” due to a quantum computing breakthrough, as their output type reveals the public key by design, regardless of address management practices, according to data analytics platform Glassnode.　　Totaling about 1.92 million Bitcoin ($BTC), the group includes $BTC from early Satoshi-era Pay-to-Public-Key (P2PK) outputs, legacy multi-sig structures such as Pay-to-Multisig (P2MS) and modern Pay-to-Taproot (P2TR) outputs, which reveal the public key or public key-equivalent by design, wrote Glassnode in a Wednesday X post.　　Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamotos coins represent about 1.1 million or 5.5% of the vulnerable supply, following another 620,000 Satoshi-era coins or 3.1% of the supply and about 200,000 coins or 1% of the supply in Taproot addresses.　　Choosing how to implement PQC [post-quantum cryptography] and deploy it on-chain should remain decoupled from the question of what to do about coins that remain quantum vulnerable. Yet the two matters often are conflated, the controversy around the latter often clouding discussions of the former - ARK Invest　　The findings underscore the need to implement a quantum-proof path for Bitcoin, such as the adoption of BIP-360s proposed Pay-to-Merkle-Root (P2MR) output type, which seeks to remove Taproots quantum-vulnerable key path spend, though it does not

Ethereum Price Prediction: ETH Holds $2,100 as Whales Exit

Ethereum is holding the lower edge of its green Gaussian Channel, keeping the short-term bounce setup alive near $2,100. However, whale count data shows large ETH holders have been leaving or consolidating positions, putting the $2,000 support level back in focus.　　Ethereum Price Backtests Green Gaussian Channel as $2,100 Support Holds　　Ethereum is backtesting the green Gaussian Channel on the daily Bitstamp chart shared by Sky on X, with price holding near the lower channel area for several sessions.　　The ETH/USD chart shows Ethereum trading near $2,110 after pulling back from the recent range near $2,370. The latest candles sit close to the lower edge of the green Gaussian Channel, where the analyst marked a possible support reaction.　　ETH/USD Daily Gaussian Channel Chart. Source:　　The channel had already flipped from purple to green. That matters because the previous purple phase showed weaker trend conditions, while the green phase points to a possible recovery setup.　　However, ETH still needs to hold the current support area. The chart shows the lower channel band near $2,102, while price remains only slightly above it.　　A daily close below this zone would weaken the backtest and could bring the lower range near $2,025 back into focus.　　If Ethereum holds the channel, the first
