Why Ethereum is up 1.1% in the last hour
Analysis
Ethereum (ETH) rose 1.1% over the past hour as traders reacted to whale-activity headlines, including reports that SharpLink resumed ETH buying after an eight-month pause, which can be read as renewed large-buyer demand despite some older whales selling. Separately, discussion around sizable ETH staking/ETF-related flows and liquidity concentration may have supported sentiment by highlighting continued institutional-style engagement with ETH.
