Ethereum risks $11B sell-off if it falls below THIS price level
Journalist Share this article Ethereum failed to flip the $3.9K price into support, dipping 14% below that level. Concerns grow over Ethereum’s long-term price action. The crypto market is in ‘extreme’ volatility, and Ethereum [ETH] is the perfect example. After a 37% drop following Trump’s pro-tariff stance, it soared after Eric Trump’s pro-ETH post. Two massive swings in four days. The stakes are high Ethereum is up just 15% from its election day opening but is still 30% below its $4,016 peak during the Trump rally. In the past week, ETH broke its support zone, falling below $2,800, three times the drop of Bitcoin. Despite the RSI hitting oversold and OBV showing signs of life, the steep decline wiped out over 14% of its gains, pushing 6.18 million addresses into the red. Why? Trump’s tough economic policies triggered the biggest 24-hour crypto liquidation ever, wiping out $10 billion in one blow. But it didn’t stop there. The ETH/BTC pair hit a four-year low, with daily declines over 3%. With little capital flowing from BTC into ETH, Ethereum’s future price action is looking more uncertain by the day.

Investors are shifting away from high-caps, either exiting the cycle or moving funds into smaller assets. So, is Ethereum’s recent dip just a temporary setback, or will the growing lack of confidence prevent it from breaking the $4,000 resistance? Ethereum’s future unfolded ETH ETFs have been on a strong run, with a four-day streak and a record $307.8 million in inflows in just one day—the highest this year. Blackrock’s ETHA alone pulled in a massive $276.2 million. This institutional buying is key to keeping ETH from falling below $2,745. At this level, 4.26 million ETH would be in the red, risking an $11 billion sell-off—something to keep an eye on in the coming days.
