Analysis
Ethereum (ETH) fell 3.2% over the past 24 hours as market sentiment weakened following reports that an Ethereum co-founder transferred about $170M worth of ETH, which CoinGape said triggered FUD and raised near-term sell-pressure concerns. Additional pressure came from coverage of a Nasdaq-listed firm pursuing a large ETH accumulation strategy while sitting on an $85M loss, reinforcing caution around big-holder positioning and downside risk (CryptoPotato).
