๐ ETH Trails Behind BTC Once Again
While Bitcoin hit new ATHs above $109K, Ethereum couldnโt even retest its local peak of $2,737. The May 13th ETH surge wasnโt raw strength โ it was a capital rotation while BTC paused. Now, with BTC dipping 3.79%, whales are testing the waters again.
๐ $60M ETH Long โ 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 โ not a good look if BTC regains dominance.
๐ 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.
๐ On-Chain & Derivatives Flash Mixed Signals
Whale wallets (1K+ ETH) dropped slightly โ 4,918 to 4,900 โ 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.
๐จ ETH Still Walking the Tightrope
With ETH/BTC still weak and macro uncertainty growing, ETHโs 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.
