Ethereum Price Danger: Whale Exodus Could Drag ETH Below $4K

TL;DR After weeks of consistent accumulation, Ethereum whales have changed the tune and have offloaded massive quantities of the second-largest ￰1￱ the overall weak market sentiment as of late, the question now arises whether the asset will fall toward and below the crucial $4,000 ￰2￱ Sell, Some Buy Data shared by popular crypto analyst Ali Martinez shows that these large market participants have disposed of over 430,000 ETH in just the last two weeks, which is a stark contrast to their approach to Ethereum throughout most of July and ￰3￱ a USD perspective, this fortune is worth around $1.80 ￰4￱ the last two weeks, whales have offloaded over 430,000 Ethereum $ETH , worth around $1.80 billion! ￰5￱ — Ali (@ali_charts) August 31, 2025 Recall that they accumulated almost the same amount just a few weeks ago, as ETH’s price had dipped from over $4,800 to under $4,100.

Just a few days later, the cryptocurrency skyrocketed to a fresh all-time high of $4,950 before it corrected once again to $4,250 amid the current ￰6￱ particular whale, though, who has become known as a Bitcoin OG in the crypto community over the past few weeks, remains unfazed by the current market ￰7￱ continue to swap BTC for ETH with another $109 million transaction completed earlier ￰8￱ total, the whale has purchased roughly $3.4 billion worth of ETH while disposing of massive BTC ￰9￱ Bitcoin OG just deposited another 1,000 $BTC ($109M) into #Hyperliquid to dump and buy $ETH ￰10￱ had previously purchased 740,570 $ETH ($3.4B) and staked it. ￰0￱ ￰11￱ — Lookonchain (@lookonchain) August 31, 2025 Drop Below $4K?

Such massive sell-offs by whales could impact the underlying asset in a two-fold manner. First, they increase the immediate selling pressure. Second, their actions could be mimicked by smaller investors, which could have a snowball effect on the asset’s price ￰12￱ mentioned above, ETH dipped to $4,250 earlier today before it recovered some ground to regain $200. However, the danger still looms of a more profound correction that could push the asset to $4,000 for the first time since early ￰13￱ indicated that this is the most significant support line for ETH’s current market ￰14￱ lost, though, the next stop would likely be $3,800.

Ethereum $ETH could find support at $4,000! ￰15￱ — Ali (@ali_charts) August 30, 2025
