Ethereum Defies SEC Scrutiny as Whales and Technicals Suggest Rebound
In the face of SEC scrutiny and broader market correction, the Ethereum price showcased a V-top reversal from the March 11th high of $4090. However, data from Santiment reveals an uptick in whale activity, with the year’s highest recorded levels suggesting substantial market interest.
The RSI indicator has plummeted to 28.5, its lowest point since a similar market bottom in late January, hinting at an oversold condition.

The ETH price currently trades at $3402 and with an intraday gain of 2.14%, it teases a breakout from the overhead trendline. This dynamic resistance carries the current downturn and its breakout will signal a better confirmation of recovery.

Will Ethereum Price See Deeper Correction?
The Spot BTC ETFs witnessed a total of $888 Million flowing out of the 10 ETFs this week, notably contributing to the current market correction.

Losing this support could accelerate the supply pressure and plunge the coin to $2800-$2700 support.
