#ETHRally

Social media chatter shows retail traders are in disbelief about Ether’s recent rally and selling off their holdings to be scooped up by big crypto buyers, said the crypto sentiment-tracking platform Santiment.

“Traders have shown FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) and disbelief as the asset makes higher and higher prices,” Santiment said in an X post on Tuesday, showing that bearish social media commentary on Ether outweighs bullish remarks.

Santiment said that prices often move in the opposite direction to retail traders’ expectations. When too many traders turn overly bullish, it can signal greed in the market, which has historically been followed by sharp sell-offs.

“There was an instance of extreme greed back on June 16, 2025, and July 30, 2025, which led to price corrections,” Santiment said.
