What you should know:
- Ethereum has seen record selling activity over the past three months, according to the CEO of CryptoQuant.
- Glassnode data suggests that long-term holders and large investors have been selling Ether during this year's price decline.
Ether (ETH) has fallen 43% year-to-date, hitting a 2025 high of $3,744 before falling to its current level of $1,899. CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young-ju noted that Ether has seen record levels of active selling over the past three months — the highest in five years.
Research from CoinDesk indicates that the Ether to Bitcoin (ETH/BTC) ratio has fallen to a five-year low, while the four-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) has turned negative compared to Bitcoin.
Since 2020, ETH has only dipped below $1900 a few times. If you had bought ETH between June 2022 and October 2023, and throughout 2020, you would be in profit right now.
Glassnode data suggests that short-term holders (STH) — those who have held ETH for less than 155 days — are bearing the brunt of realized losses. However, long-term holders (LTH) are also starting to show signs of capitulation.
Meanwhile, according to Glassnode data, the main losses were suffered by large investors holding 100,000 ETH or more, especially since February.
