π ETH Trails Behind BTC Once Again
While Bitcoin hit new ATHs above $109K, Ethereum couldnβt even retest its local peak of $2,737. The May 13th ETH surge wasnβt raw strength β it was a capital rotation while BTC paused. Now, with BTC dipping 3.79%, whales are testing the waters again.
π $60M ETH Long β Bold or Reckless?
One whale placed a $60M long at $2,666 right as BTC slipped. But ETH has already pulled back to $2,564. If the price keeps falling, this position flirts with liquidation β not a good look if BTC regains dominance.
π Rotation Setup Repeats?
Back on May 8, BTC stalled and ETH soared nearly 50% in a week. Could history repeat? Maybe. But this time, BTC is back above $109K and pulling capital back with it. That rotation window? Shrinking.
π On-Chain & Derivatives Flash Mixed Signals
Whale wallets (1K+ ETH) dropped slightly β 4,918 to 4,900 β while ETH fell 5.2% from $2,693. Derivatives markets are risk-off, with clear deleveraging underway. But 7,515 ETH quietly left exchanges, suggesting spot buyers are accumulating.
π¨ ETH Still Walking the Tightrope
With ETH/BTC still weak and macro uncertainty growing, ETHβs climb back to $2,700 remains uncertain. Whales may be buying the dip, but unless sentiment flips fast, they could be stepping into a trap, not a rally.
