Ethereum (ETH) 'Smart' Whale Bets $426 Million Long, Price Chart Targets $4000
Ethereum (ETH) has surged to $3,140, a 20% increase from its November low of $2,621, prompting significant bullish activity from major investors. According to data from Lookonchain, several "smart whales" have opened large long positions totaling 136,433 ETH, valued at approximately $426 million. Notable among them are BitcoinOG (1011short) with a $169 million long, Anti-CZ with $194 million, and pension-usdt.eth holding 20,000 ETH worth around $62.5 million. Another whale, "0xBADBB," is using two accounts to long ETH with a total value of $189.5 million.
This institutional and whale confidence aligns with BitMine’s recent addition of $199 million in ETH, bringing its total holdings to 373,000 ETH ($13.3 billion) and reinforcing its position as the largest corporate holder. The market is also anticipating a potential 25-basis-point rate cut by the Fed on December 10, which could further support prices.
Technically, ETH's price action has formed a classic ascending triangle pattern on the daily chart. A breakout above the $3,250 resistance level could trigger a rally toward the pattern’s target of approximately $4,020, representing a potential 28% upside from current levels. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has also improved from an oversold condition of 28 to 50, indicating growing bullish momentum. However, key resistance zones lie between $3,350-$3,550 (where the 50-day and 100-day SMAs are located) and at the 200-day SMA near $3,800.
