TL;DR

 <li>Optimists argue ETH has bottomed and is primed for an “up only” trajectory, while skeptics warn about a potential drop to $3,800 if momentum weakens.</li>

Ethereum (ETH) was at the forefront of gains in August, hitting a new all-time high of almost $5,000 towards the end of the month. Since then, though, the price headed south and is now hovering below $4,400 (per CoinGecko’s data).
Certain factors signal that the bulls might enjoy a new resurgence soon. The popular X user Ali Martinez <a href="https://x.com/ali_charts/status/1963050813636620384" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">revealed</a> that 500,000 ETH (worth more than $2.1 billion) have been withdrawn from crypto exchanges in the past week alone.&nbsp;
Data compiled by CryptoQuant shows that currently, the total stash stored on such platforms is around 17.3 million tokens, which represents the lowest level witnessed since the summer of 2016. This is a clear sign that investors have been shifting from centralized exchanges toward self-custody methods, which in turn reduces the immediate selling pressure.

Meanwhile, ETH whales continue to show a huge appetite for the asset. Earlier this week, those large investors (holding between 10,000 and 100,000 coins each) <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/260000-eth-snapped-up-by-whales-in-24h-is-a-rally-brewing/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">accumulated</a> 260,000 tokens in just a single day. As a result, they increased their total holdings to 29.62 million ETH, which accounts for nearly a quarter of the asset’s circulating supply.
Such efforts leave fewer coins available on the open market and could push the price up (assuming demand doesn’t diminish). The whales are dominant market participants, and their activities are often followed by retail investors who might decide to mimic their move and distribute additional capital into the ecosystem.
<h2 id="span-the-analysts-take-span">The Analysts’ Take</h2>
Many crypto enthusiasts on X seem optimistic about ETH, believing it has enough fuel left to post additional gains. The analyst with the moniker Mister Crypto <a href="https://x.com/misterrcrypto/status/1962958707043795410" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">thinks</a> the price has reached its local bottom in April when plunging below $1,400 and is now headed for an “up only” trajectory.&nbsp;
On the other hand, Ted made a somewhat bearish forecast. He <a href="https://x.com/TedPillows/status/1963164814751994117" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">noted</a> that ETH continues to hold the $4,200 level but claimed that the price “doesn’t look very strong” and envisioned a potential drop to $3,800 as “a final support target for the correction.”
