Ethereum Whale Moves Signal Price Surge Incoming – Will ETH Hit $3,000 Soon?

Published by

Ethereum price is heating up. In the past seven days, ETH has gained over 4.5%, and in just the last 24 hours, it’s jumped more than 2.3%. Now, whale activity and exchange data suggest something bigger may be coming.

Ethereum Whales Make Bold Moves

According to on-chain reports, a major Ethereum whale has withdrawn 6,989 ETH (worth around $17.5 million) from Binance over the past three weeks. Just recently, the same wallet removed 1,900 ETH, valued at nearly $4.86 million, from the exchange.This kind of large-scale withdrawal reduces exchange liquidity, and if demand surges while supply dips, it could lead to a supply shock—a classic recipe for a price rally.

Ethereum Exchange Reserve Drops

The latest data shows that Ethereum exchange reserves are steadily falling:

  • Total exchange reserve now: 18,962,692 ETH
  • On May 1: 19,576,503 ETH
  • Binance ETH reserve: 4,947,990 ETH

This drop suggests more ETH is being moved to cold wallets or DeFi platforms—an indicator of long-term holding sentiment among investors.

Ethereum Price Performance: Steady Climb

  • ETH price on July 1: $2,405.08
  • ETH price now: $2,562.97
  • 7-day growth: 4.5%
  • 24-hour surge: 2.3%

For weeks, ETH has been consolidating between $2,400 and $2,700. A breakout above this range could confirm bullish momentum.

Ethereum Technicals: Bullish Signs in Play

  • 50-day SMA: $2,532.12
  • 100-day SMA: $2,211
  • 200-day SMA: $2,492.99
  • RSI: 54.49 (neutral)

The 50-day SMA is above the 100 and 200-day SMAs—indicating short- to mid-term bullish momentum. The neutral RSI means ETH still has room to grow without entering overbought territory.

What’s Next for Ethereum?

If the current whale accumulation trend continues and ETH breaks above $2,700, analysts expect a move toward $3,000 and possibly beyond. A shrinking exchange supply and bullish technicals could fuel that breakout.
