💸 How many ETH coins have been lost?

Part of $BTC and $ETH issue is irretrievably lost and should not be taken into account when analyzing. Let's analyze how many ETH coins are definitely lost irretrievably.

As of now, 913,000 coins have been confirmed lost, totaling over $3 billion.

- 513.7K ETH lost due to a Parity multisig error;
- 250K ETH - Rain Lohmus lost a private key after purchasing ETH at an ICO;
- 85.4K ETH - bug contract errors;
- 26.8K ETH were sent to 0xdead / burn addresses;
- 36.4K ETH sent with typos to non-existent addresses.

Here we do not take into account potential loss of access to wallets, but only those coins that are definitely lost forever.

🐋 Major players started to gradually switch from $BTC to $ETH

The market is redistributing capital, the number of addresses holding at least 1,000 bitcoins decreased by 1.61%, or 34 addresses. And at the same time, the number of addresses holding at least 10 thousand ETH increased by 8%, or 90 addresses. This trend indicates a growing interest in ether from whales, who are gradually increasing their holdings, seeing the potential in the development of the Ethereum network.

Recently, the Top 10 new ETH whales have emerged. Cumulatively, the 10 wallets have accumulated 648,000 coins worth $2.2 billion in 20 days. For example, the day before yesterday wallet 0x3dF3 bought another $45m worth of ETH. And he already has 112,972 ETH ($430m) on his balance. Average purchase price = $3662.

Bitcoin, despite its popularity, has started to slowly give way to other assets, especially in the context of institutional investments

🐋 Rating of the largest companies of organizations by the number of accumulated $ETH

The top 2 companies have assets worth billions of dollars, while the rest are limited to millions of dollars. At the moment, the companies have already bought 2.26% (2.73M) of the total ETH issue and this figure will gradually grow, as they will not stop at this amount. The inflow from corporations is comparable to the inflow of funds into spot Ethereum ETFs, which are also showing record demand. Meanwhile, we continue to have ETH purchases, with Bitcoin Shop planning to raise $2B to buy ETH tokens. BTCS Inc. was founded in 2013 under the name Bitcoin Shop, Inc. as the first e-commerce startup to accept payment in BTC.

The growing interest is attributed to the opportunity to earn income from ETH staking (~3% annualized) and participation in DeFi protocols. The asset has slowed down in its dynamics so far and probably started to form a sideways trend for the next few days, and possibly until the end of the week, as the market is not particularly volatile now.

Santiment on X

📈 $BNB continues to show excellent results

This time the asset boasts to have overtaken SoftBank and Strategy in terms of capitalization, also not forgetting the ATH update on the coin. Institutional demand has grown strongly in recent times with Nano Labs - acquired 128,000 BNB, increasing reserves to $108 million at an asset price of $850. Windtree Therapeutics - signed a $60 million agreement to build reserves in the token, Liminatus - plans to invest up to $500 million in BNB.

The project is actively developing and is in good demand, but for investment is certainly not the best option, only if you show some activity on exchanges.

📈 Bitmain gave an impressive outlook on $ETH

The company believes that the asset could grow to $706,000 if it becomes a global reserve asset and a global RWA platform

World Liberty Financial (WLFI) has purchased another batch of ETH. The ETH buying spree continues, with WLFI purchasing an additional 256.75 coins at a price of $3,895. World Liberty Financial's total stock of ETH currently stands at 77,226 coins. SharpLink is also rapidly building up its Ethereum reserves, which currently stands at 438,190 ETH.

There is a lot of buzz around the asset right now, many people are paying attention to it and that's a good thing as it could be the result of new liquidity flowing in. I certainly do not doubt its potential, but the forecast is certainly serious.

$ETH buying continues, $BTC is sideways, and altcoins are coming back to life a bit at a time.

Sharplink Gaming bought another 77,206 ETH ($300M) over the weekend! And as a result her current balance is 438,017 ETH.

Last week, spot Ethereum ETFs saw net inflows of $1.85B. BTC ETFs also saw inflows during the same period, but the result was much smaller, only $72M.

ETH is now showing a much stronger market position and the demand for it is no less than for BTC. The classic strategy of working with BTC cycles stopped working because the whales used to fix profits by selling bitcoin to retail investors. But now the old whales are transferring assets to corporations and institutional investors.

There is generally some truth here, however, I think few of you are interested in BTC as an investment vehicle and most of you are looking towards altcoins. BTC may be stuck in a sideways position for quite some time, but the decline in dominance and liquidity spillover to altcoins will be their growth drivers and the coins will perform well regardless of the main cryptocurrency. This is what you need and what you are waiting for, and BTC has become more of a tool for large companies, but not for average traders.

🐋 Whales are actively buying $BNB

The recent rally in the asset is due to demand on the spot market and growing interest of institutional investors.BNB has outperformed traditional market indices and other major cryptocurrencies in terms of risk-return ratio. The potential demand for BNB from large investors is over $1.2 billion.Public companies hold $3.7 billion worth of $ETH , which is only 0.83% of its total capitalization. BNB's $1.2 billion reserve means that public companies claim 1% of its supply.

Amid all this activity, the coin has updated its ATH and is currently trying to hold above $800, but I think we will see a correction in the short term, at least to the $740-$750 area.

🏦 Another company has decided to start accumulating $BTC

Quantum Solutions - specializing in artificial intelligence - intends to purchase $350M worth of bitcoins. Quantum Solutions is positioning itself as one of the first Japanese companies to realize an ambitious plan to buy 3,000 bitcoins over the next year. This investment will be the largest corporate BTC holding in the country at the moment.

As you can see, the trend of companies hoarding bitcoins continues, which plays to our advantage as it brings liquidity to the market. So far, globally, the uptrend on the market is preserved and there are no preconditions for a strong correction. There are active purchases from big players and the market is growing little by little.

Lido's share in Ethereum steaking has fallen to 25%

Previously dominating the Ethereum stacking market, the Lido Finance platform with the token $LDO has reduced its share in the segment to 25%, which is the lowest since March 2022. Back in February, the value was 32%, while in March it was already 29.6%. Cumulatively, Lido's share has fallen by 5% in the last six months.

On July 6, total staking deposits reached a record ~36.5 million $ETH , before dropping to 36.1 million ETH. Lido was the leader in terms of net outflows over the last month.

📈 The number of corporate holders continues to grow

This trend started in 2023, and as a result, there are already 35 companies that hold more than 1,000 $BTC on their balance sheet. The number of small investors is even higher. The situation on the market is developing well, companies continue to buy coins, ETFs are recording inflows, the market is growing little by little.

For example, on July 25, U.S. spot $ETH ETFs attracted $453 million, thus recording the 16th consecutive trading session with a positive result.

🐋 Whales are buying $LINK

Whales have accumulated >1.60 million LINK over the past two weeks. The asset is currently on the hype and is seeing large volumes, especially on OTC platforms. The asset, like $ENA , is currently very pleasant to buy in any perspective and at least 2x can still be picked up.

If we look at the $ETH / $BTC fractal from 2015-2018, we still have a huge growth margin. There are not many interesting coins to buy on the market, and LINK is one of them. The project is actively developing and has a great future for the next cycles, so it is suitable for both short-term and long-term portfolios.

Ethereum ICO participant wakes up after 10 years of inactivity

After 10 years, an ICO participant has become active, owning 37 $ETH , which was worth $11 to him, and is currently valued at $140,000. This case reminds us of the importance of long-term investments.

Meanwhile, SharpLink Gaming has decided to buy ETH for $145,000,000, the trend of purchases from large companies continues, which is positive for the market.

After a recent local drawdown, the market has gradually begun to recover and it is likely that we will see further growth of ETH above $4K

🐋 Whales buy $ENA

Today, Arthur Hayes bought 2.16 million ENA for $1.03 million today and currently owns 7.76 million ENA ~ $4.2 million. The asset is subject to strong accumulations by large whales and is already starting to realize an upward movement.

I believe that we have the potential of at least two x and the asset will most likely even be able to renew its ATH. One of the few assets that can be considered for purchase at current values

🐋Strong whale activity in $AAVE

Aave is the largest $ETH lending protocol, the volume of deposits on which, according to DefiLlama, exceeds 55 billion dollars.

Over the past week, decentralized financial whales have withdrawn Ethereum for a whopping $1.7 billion from the Aave credit protocol. As a result, available liquidity decreased, and the interest rate charged by the protocol to borrowers temporarily exceeded 10%. The victims were only those engaged in looping — a strategy of profiting from Ethereum staking by repeatedly making deposits and borrowing on the market — they suddenly began to lose money.

According to beaconcha, on today, the exit queue for staking exceeded 705,013 Ethereum worth about 2.5 billion dollars. This is the highest indicator in the entire history.

The withdrawal of Ethereum by whales from Aave led to a reduction in the supply of the asset on the platform. In such cases, the protocol is designed to increase the interest rate charged to borrowers. When the interest rate jumped, it meant that cyclical strategies that depended on maintaining a low interest rate on Ethereum borrowings backfired, and investors began to lose money. These investors closed their positions, lined up millions of dollars worth of Ethereum to withdraw from the staking network contract through liquid staking providers, and created a larger queue that led to a loss in the value of the asset.

However, AAVE remains one of the strongest projects on the market and it can be taken even from the current ones, since it still has at least 50% to ATH and even more.

One of the $BTC whales that has been inactive for 14 years recently woke up

On July 24, a wallet associated with an "early" whale transferred 3,962 BTC (~$468 million at the current rate) to a new address. The owner of the first cryptocurrency showed activity for the first time in 14 years. He purchased the transferred bitcoins at $0.393 per coin in January 2011. At that time, their value was estimated at $1,453.

Two large transactions from Ethereum were also noticed. One wallet transferred 31,168 $ETH (~$113 million) to Coinbase Institutional, another sent 27,090 $ETH (~$98 million) to Cumberland.

There is a possibility of a sell-off from these investors, however, there is currently no trend of global sales from large players and all sales are coming only from small investors. Although Bitcoin has renewed its historical maximum, investors are in no hurry to sell assets and are selling only a small part of their reserves. At the moment, BTC has gone from the sideways trend to short, but this dynamic is rather local in nature and its goal is to collect liquidity from below with subsequent growth, and not to start full-fledged sales from whales.
