Highlights
- Along with World Liberty Financial purchase, Abraxas Capital withdrew 49,644 ETH, valued at $92 million, from Binance and Kraken.
- Ethereum's daily trading volumes have jumped by 125%, reaching $38 billion, alongside a 16% ETH price surge.

Ethereum’s massive 16% god-candle in the last 24 hours has ignited institutional interest, with Donald Trump’s DeFi project World Liberty Financial scooping another 1,587 ETH, worth $3.5 million earlier today. This happens as ETH price stages a strong reversal, shooting past $2,200 with daily trading volumes jumping 15% to more than $37 billion.
World Liberty Financial Takes Forward Institutional Ethereum Interest
As ETH price stages strong reversal, institutional interest in the largest altcoin is gathering steam. As per data from Arkham Intelligence, a wallet associated with Donald Trump’s DeFi project World Liberty Financial has purchased 1,587 Ethereum coins with a fresh investment value of $3.5 million.
The project has been heavily accumulating Ethereum over the past few months, with project lead Eric Trump sharing a bullish outlook for the asset in the past. Although ETH price corrected more than 40% since the beginning of 2024, the sharp bounce back from under $1,800 has led to renewed institutional interest and buying.
World Liberty Financial’s recent purchase highlights that big players are seeing the possibility of a bottom formation and the potential of a strong upside from here. In the last 24 hours, Abraxas Capital, a prominent investment firm, made significant withdrawals of 49,644 ETH, valued at approximately $92 million, from major exchanges Binance and Kraken.
On the other hand, Ethereum Foundation announced $32 million investment in Q1 2025, with the goal of boosting growth and innovation in the ETH ecosystem.
Analysts Take on ETH Price Action Ahead
With a 16% upside on the daily chart, ETH price surged to the crucial resistance of $2,200, with daily trading volumes surging by 125% to $38 billion.

According to the analyst, the current price action closely resembles the movement observed in September 2019, as marked in the most left segment of an orange-circled pattern on the chart. The analyst further noted that the ETH price could continue to fluctuate in the range $2,200-$3,900.
Additionally, as CoinGape reported, the UK-US trade deal has also sparked an additional $1.8 billion demand for ETH. This recent purchase from World Liberty Financial could lead to further institutional demand.
