Ethereum whales are doubling down on the top altcoin by market cap with an impressive $236 million buy wall in three days. Ethereum ( ETH ) price continues to trade below $2,000, struggling amid recent sell-off pressure. However, whales, or large-scale investors with substantial ETH holdings, are unfazed. In fact, on-chain data shows that the world’s largest altcoin by market cap has attracted significant buying activity from large holders. On March 21, crypto analyst Ali Martinez shared a chart showing a spike in whale accumulation of ETH. According to the analyst, the latest dip that saw Ethereum’s price retreat from above $2,000 allowed whales to scoop up over 120,000 Ether tokens — worth nearly $236 million — in just three days.

On-chain data shows the whale withdrew 4,511 ETH worth over $8.81 million from crypto exchange OKX, and proceeded to deposit these into top decentralized finance platform Aave. But the whale did not stop there. They borrowed 5 million USDT from the DeFi protocol and deposited it into OKX, with the funds used to buy 2,563 ETH for $5 million.

ETH currently trades around $1,966, continuing the sideways action after giving up gains seen when bulls rallied 7% on Wednesday.Weekly gains are now just 1.7%, and buyers have endured a 27% pullback in the past month. Although the choppy performance has some ETH holders panic selling, whales have taken an aggressive approach. This suggests confidence in potential future price upside for Ethereum. Recently, analysts at Standard Chartered predicted ETH could climb to $4k in 2025, although this included a revised forecast from an earlier bullish take of $10k by the end of the year. This bullish outlook by the whales though has retail in an upbeat mood too.

Analysts are currently tracking the crypto market, trying to gauge when the next “altseason” might kick off. CryptoBullet points to the typical four-year market cycle, expecting it to wrap up around October or November of 2025. This timeline suggests altcoins could see a surge within the next eight months. However, the current market shows some hesitation, especially with Ethereum and other altcoins not exhibiting strong momentum, leading to questions about a potential delay into 2026. Ali Martinez analyzed Bitcoin’s Altseason Indicator. He noted Bitcoin’s peak at $96,715.57 on December 10, 2024, when Bitcoin attracted $0.13 million in capital, Ethereum $0.06 million, and stablecoins $0.10 million. By March 16, 2025, Bitcoin had fallen to $82,599.04. Inflows also saw a dip, with Bitcoin receiving just $0.007 million, Ethereum $0.024 million, and stablecoins $0.020 million. Related: Altseason Incoming? Breakout Levels for Major Altcoin Rally — Analyst The Altseason Indicator has slid from 1 to 0.33, signaling weakening momentum. This suggests altseason might stall unless Bitcoin stages a significant recovery. Martinez cautions that if Bitcoin breaks below $80,000, it could indicate further downside. Conversely, a climb above $90,000 might reignite investor confidence.

A correction then pulled it back to $2.69 trillion. While the market is attempting a recovery, resistance levels are capping its progress. The $2.69 trillion mark now acts as immediate support. Short-term support sits at $2.71 trillion, while a stronger demand zone lies between $2.6 trillion and $2.55 trillion. The next key resistance is at $2.74 trillion, aligning with the 50-day moving average. A more significant ceiling exists at $2.84 trillion, near the 200-day moving average. Ethereum currently trades at $1,967.74 , down 0.86% in the last 24 hours. Avalanche is at $18.58 , a 1.22% decrease, and Solana is priced at $126.61 , having lost 3.02% over the same period. These declines reflect a broader trend of altcoins struggling for upward movement, adding to the uncertainty around a near-term altseason.

Solana (SOL) has seen a significant surge over the last 24 hours, surging 6% to reach $135, according to data from CoinMarketCap. This price rally comes as optimism builds around the upcoming launch of a Solana futures ETF by Volatility Shares, which is set to debut on Thursday. As a result, investor interest has spiked, with daily trading volumes soaring by 74.71% to over $3.63 billion. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez pointed out on X that Solana’s futures Open Interest has climbed to $2.7 billion, levels not witnessed since October 2024. This resurgence in the derivatives market highlights increasing participation from both traders and investors. Related: Solana at 5: Impressive Growth, But Future Hinges on Firedancer Insights from Glassnode reveal crucial price levels where Solana’s supply is concentrated. A significant support zone lies at $112.10, where a substantial 9.7 million SOL (1.67% of the total supply) is held. Notably, this level already contained 4 million SOL back on January 19th, indicating that long-term investors have been accumulating more at this price point. Below this, the $94, $97, and $100 levels collectively hold nearly 21 million SOL (3.5% of supply), making them critical for preventing further downside. However, Glassnode cautions that if these levels were to break, the downside risk could increase sharply, as there’s relatively little trading volume in the range between $94 and $56. On the upside, recent price action has led to notable accumulation at $123 (16.2 million SOL, 2.7%) and $126 (19 million SOL, 3.2%). This demand could act as a cushion against further declines.

Interestingly, the $144 level already held 20.6 million SOL on January 19th. Analyzing the technical indicators, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 45, placing SOL in the neutral to bullish territory, which suggests a potential for a price rebound. The Bollinger Bands (BB) indicate that price volatility is narrowing, often a precursor to an impending breakout. Additionally, the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is currently at $137.37. For Solana to gain further upward momentum, it will need to reclaim this level. Until then, the 20-day EMA presents a significant resistance point for the SOL token.

Crypto analyst Mags recently pointed out that the Fear and Greed Index has once again dipped into “Extreme Fear” territory. Historically, this has often been a reliable buy signal for Bitcoin (BTC), with each previous drop into this zone preceding a significant price recovery. The last time this occurred was in September 2024, when Bitcoin was trading around $54,000. Following that extreme fear signal, BTC experienced an impressive surge of 102%. Now that the index is back in Extreme Fear, traders are watching closely for a similar bounce. However, this potential trajectory could be influenced by external macroeconomic factors, particularly the upcoming Federal Reserve meeting. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting concludes today, March 19, 2025, and Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s subsequent speech will be closely scrutinized. This meeting is especially critical given the current economic uncertainty stemming from President Donald Trump’s recently imposed tariffs on Mexico and Canada . These economic shifts have already caused the crypto market to shed nearly a trillion dollars in valuation, making the FOMC’s interest rate decision even more impactful. Currently, analysts expect the Fed to maintain rates between 4.25% and 4.50%, unchanged since December 2024. Market expectations for rate cuts in 2025 have shifted from anticipating two quarter-point reductions to a more cautious outlook. Bitcoin is currently trading around $83,306, struggling to break through existing resistance levels. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 43.73, indicating a neutral to slightly bearish momentum. Bollinger Bands suggest that BTC is trading closer to the lower band, which typically signifies high volatility and the possibility of a significant price move. However, the direction of this move will likely depend on overall market sentiment and the broader macroeconomic environment. Related: Metaplanet’s Bitcoin Bet: Tokyo Firm Adds Millions More in BTC to Treasury Analyst Ali Martinez has highlighted the importance of Bitcoin’s moving averages . BTC is currently facing rejection at the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), while the 50-day SMA is providing an additional layer of resistance around $91,000. Bullish momentum for Bitcoin may remain uncertain until these key levels are decisively cleared. If Fed Chair Powell’s commentary hints at potential future rate cuts or if market sentiment improves following the FOMC meeting, Bitcoin could indeed bounce back from this Extreme Fear territory. A successful break above the $91,000 resistance could then trigger a rally towards $100,000 and potentially beyond, mirroring the historical pattern observed in September 2024.

In this scenario, the Fear and Greed Index might remain in Extreme Fear for an extended period, delaying any potential recovery.

Cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez has observed a potential “sense of denial” among holders of TON, the native cryptocurrency of the TON blockchain, following recent news surrounding Telegram’s founder, Pavel Durov. In his latest analysis, Martinez highlighted the cryptocurrency’s price action, noting its struggle around a historically significant level. Using the TON/USD daily chart, the analyst pointed out that TON’s price has shown some hesitation while attempting to break through resistance around the $3.5 mark. The cryptocurrency had previously experienced a notable surge from a local low of $2.35 after a significant decline, rallying with considerable momentum before encountering resistance at its current price point. In the meantime, Martinez reviewed TON’s price for the past year and highlighted the $3.5 region as an optimistic level during last year’s bull run. The price served as a momentum boost for TON holders in the bullish market and triggered a substantial rally that pushed the cryptocurrency’s price to higher levels. Although most technical analysts could consider historical behavior and expect a repeat of last year’s price surge, Martinez thinks Durov’s ongoing legal issue with the French government might be negatively impacting TON’s prospects. The legal situation appears to have caused an abrupt halt to the recent rally that followed the cryptocurrency’s attempted recovery. Related: Crypto Market Jitters as Pavel Durov’s Release Odds Dwindle In the meantime, the French government recently allowed Durov to return to his home in Dubai after holding him in custody for several months. French authorities had arrested the Telegram founder last August, accusing him of failing to adequately moderate his platform and curb criminal activity. However, Durov denied the allegations, noting that he has cooperated with law enforcement over drug trafficking, child sexual abuse content, and fraud. Typically, crypto community members would expect Durov’s return to his home in Dubai to trigger positive sentiments for TON. That could still happen, depending on the altcoin’s next move from the current level.
