Ethereum Whales Loses Nearly 25% Of Their Holdings Amid Market Shift

With the crypto market turning slightly bearish, the Ethereum price has lost the $2,300 mark, raising questions about the stability of its recent upswing. Amid this sideways price action, a report shows that a fading bullish sentiment among Ethereum whales is evidenced by a significant decline in their holdings.

Large ETH Players’ Portfolio Shrinks Sharply
After examining Ethereum whales‘ holdings, Ali Charts, a seasoned market expert and trader, revealed that these key investors are exhibiting a trend not seen in over a year. While ETH’s price is slowly losing its upside momentum, a major wave of selling has rattled the ETH market. 

This heightened selling activity was observed among large investors or whales holding between 1,000 ETH and 10,000 ETH as they dump nearly a quarter of their holdings in the face of uncertainty. Such a trend underscores a major decrease in exposure, which raises questions about confidence and short-term market stability. 

Since October 6, 2025, Ethereum holders between 1,000 and 10,000 ETH have undergone a notable regime shift in their market activity. Prior to the shift, the cohort was spotted in a steady accumulation phase. During the period, these investors’ ETH portfolio saw a rise from 12.95 million ETH in April 2025 to a peak of 15.95 million ETH by October 6, 2025. Fast forward to May 2026, and this behavior has flipped again.

Why JPMorgan AI is no longer an experimentJPMorgan AI spending has been reclassified from discretionary innovation to core infrastructure, placing it alongside data centers and cybersecurity in the bank’s budget.

JPMorgan has reclassified JPMorgan AI investment as core infrastructure, treating its $2bn annual budget as non-negotiable as cybersecurity. The world’s largest bank has moved its AI spending out of the discretionary innovation category and placed it alongside data centers, payment systems, and core risk controls inside its $19.8bn total technology budget for 2026.

CEO Jamie Dimon said the investment has already self-funded through $2bn in operational savings across more than 150,000 employees, adding a 10% to 11% productivity gain in engineering, operations, and fraud detection.

The reclassification is not symbolic. When a bank of JPMorgan’s scale treats AI as a non-discretionary cost on par with fraud detection infrastructure, the signal moves downstream to every other financial institution in its competitive set.

CFO Jeremy Barnum confirmed that modernization spending has peaked and the bank’s investment is now shifting toward products, platforms, and AI integration as a baseline operating cost rather than a special project.

$110K Spring Airdrop Rain—18 Days Straight!

BlackRock doubles down on tokenization with new stablecoin reserve fundsBlackRock plans to launch two tokenized money market funds for stablecoin issuers as CEO Larry Fink doubles down on tokenization.

The first proposed fund, called the BlackRock Daily Reinvestment Stablecoin Reserve Vehicle is a Treasury-backed money market fund built for blockchain-based ownership and transfers. It will invest in ultra-short-term US government securities and repo agreements while issuing onchain shares held through approved crypto wallets.

Designed for the stablecoin ecosystem, BlackRock intends the vehicle to qualify as an eligible reserve asset under the GENIUS Act, the US law establishing a framework for payment stablecoins. Stablecoin issuers and crypto-native institutions could then use the fund as part of their reserve backing strategy while earning Treasury-based yield.

The second fund, BlackRock Select Treasury Based Liquidity Fund, is designed to issue tokenized shares of BlackRock’s existing $6.9 billion Treasury liquidity fund on Ethereum.

Institutions Are Back. They Are Just Not Back for Everything

The MorenoDV report identifies the relationship between fund positioning and price behavior as more than coincidental. In both Bitcoin and Ethereum, price recovery has closely tracked the direction of fund holdings — as institutional positions stabilized and began expanding, prices gradually recovered from their post-crash lows. The sequencing suggests that institutional positioning is not simply reacting to price movements after the fact. It appears to be actively participating in shaping the market structure that determines where prices go.

That observation makes the divergence between Bitcoin and Ethereum considerably more significant. Bitcoin regained institutional confidence relatively quickly — fund holdings expanded by 92,000 BTC while the price rebuilt from its lows. Ethereum has not seen the same dynamic. Fund holdings declined even as the broader market recovered, reflecting a hesitation that the price action has mirrored.

The report’s explanation for that hesitation is structural rather than speculative. Bitcoin has consolidated its identity as the macro reserve asset of the crypto ecosystem — the deepest liquidity, the most developed ETF infrastructure, and the cleanest institutional framework for allocation. Ethereum occupies a different position in the institutional risk hierarchy. During periods of uncertainty, funds have shown a consistent tendency to reduce ETH exposure first while maintaining or rebuilding Bitcoin positions as the comparatively safer allocation.

XRP ETFs Record May's First Weekly InflowThe crypto market has traded mainly on the positive side over the last week, and $XRP has just recorded the biggest weekly inflow of the month according to the latest data provided by SosoValue.

Despite the negative record seen last week, the $XRP ETFs have shown signs of recovery as the broader crypto market sees sentiment flip to extremely bullish, sparking notable demand from institutional investors.

$XRP registers $28.17 million in fresh capital
While the $XRP ETF market recovery has followed a notable increase in the price of $XRP in the last seven days, it appears that institutional investors have become more optimistic about the asset's future price potential.

Hence, they have doubled down on their investments in the $XRP-based investment product. As such, the $XRP funds have achieved a combined inflow of $28.17 million in the past week.

While this comes after a week of extremely low performance, this marks the first and highest weekly inflow recorded by the $XRP ETFs in May.

With this resurgence in institutional demand, $XRP has continued to show signs of a potential price breakout as it has traded consistently above the $1.40 zone over the period.

What's next for $XRP in May?
While the last month proved to be a strong breakout month for $XRP following the prolonged volatility seen in the previous months, the asset has retained the bullish momentum in May.

As such, market watchers have become highly optimistic for a bigger price move in May as $XRP has traded mainly on the upside so far this month.

With the asset currently hovering around $1.40 as of the time of writing, analysts have predicted that the asset could hit the $2 mark before the month runs out.

#MegaETH has activated a MEGA token buyback program funded entirely by net revenue from its USDm stablecoin, turning Treasury‑backed yield into a standing bid for its “real‑time Ethereum” L2 token after a sharp post‑launch selloff. Summary The MegaETH Foundation has kicked off a MEGA token buyback program, completing its first purchase using all net earnings generated by USDm through the end of April. USDm’s current supply is about $480 million, and future MEGA buybacks will run programmatically, with size determined by USDm supply and yield on its reserve assets. The foundation stresses that USDm is not issued or operated by MegaETH or MegaLabs, even as its revenue stream becomes a core economic engine for MEGA demand. The MegaETH Foundation says its MEGA token buyback plan is now live, with the first repurchase funded entirely by net earnings from USDm accumulated through the end of April. In an announcement on X, the foundation said it had “completed the first MEGA buyback using all net income generated by USDm’s issuer as of April 30,” framing the move as the start of an ongoing demand loop where the ecosystem’s stablecoin revenue is recycled into the native token. MEGA buyback goes live, tied directly to USDm revenues Importantly, the foundation reiterated that “USDm is not issued or operated by the MegaETH Foundation or MegaLabs,” clarifying that the stablecoin’s issuer is a separate entity even though its economics are tightly coupled to MEGA. USDm is a yield-bearing stablecoin built on Ethena’s USDtb rails, with reserves primarily invested in BlackRock’s tokenized U.S. Treasury fund BUIDL via Securitize, alongside liquid stables for redemptions. Those reserves generate a predictable yield, which flows to the USDm issuer and, under the new scheme, is then used as the funding source for MEGA buybacks. CoinMarketCap’s overview of MegaETH notes that the MEGA token has a fixed supply of 10 billion and is used for gas, staking and governance within the “real-time

Strategy CEO Explains Why They Might Sell Bitcoin – “I Believe in Math, Not Ideology”


Phong Le, CEO of Strategy, one of the world’s largest institutional Bitcoin holders, announced a significant change in the company’s Bitcoin management strategy. Speaking in an exclusive interview with CNBC, Le stated that they have shifted from a “never sell” approach to an active management model that maximizes shareholder value.

Phong Le stated that the company can now use its Bitcoin assets for liquidity and dividend payments when needed, instead of simply holding them. CEO Le said, “I believe in mathematics rather than ideology. If selling Bitcoin becomes a more profitable option than issuing new shares to pay dividends to our shareholders, we will do it.”
