Unstaking and major transfers fuel supply debate amid rising DeFi activity this week

The Ethereum Foundation recently unstaked nearly $48.9 million in ETH, raising questions about potential increases in available supply. Additional large institutional transactions have occurred, including Galaxy Digital moving 45,000 ETH to exchanges and BitMine accumulating substantial holdings, while overall ETH exchange reserves have fallen to a multi-year low. Network activity has increased due to renewed interest in decentralized finance applications, and the Aave DAO proposed a 25,000 ETH allocation for a collective recovery initiative following a recent DeFi security incident.

Persistent bearish momentum as technicals confirm weak trend strength over the week

Technical analysis on the weekly chart reveals Ethereum trading firmly below its MA-20 ($2,395.95), MA-50 ($3,083.30), and MA-200 ($2,457.07), confirming a bearish bias. The Ichimoku Kijun at $2,831.05 stands well above the current price, with dynamic resistance and support at the MA-20 and MA-200 levels, respectively. Weekly momentum signals remain subdued, as indicated by a strong bearish MACD and an ADX value of 17.84, reflecting weak trend strength. The RSI on the weekly timeframe signals a sell, while the Stochastic RSI remains overbought, and the CCI holds neutral; Bull/Bear Power shows overbought conditions, suggesting buyer activity despite the broader downtrend.

Limited upside expected as consolidation likely to persist in the coming week

Looking ahead to the next seven days, Ethereum is expected to trade between $2,290 and $2,370. None of the four key weekly indicators currently show a Buy or Strong Buy signal, resulting in a very low probability (less than 20%) of any meaningful upside. The base case is continued consolidation between $2,290 support and $2,370 resistance. Should price break above $2,370, a short-lived recovery may occur, but the higher-probability scenario is a breakdown below $2,290, extending losses toward lower weekly supports.

Earlier, analysts noted that Ethereum was poised for heightened market volatility amid deepening institutional involvement and ongoing accumulation trends. This latest analysis strengthens that view, as notable on-chain movements and technical weakness combine to suggest traders should remain vigilant for a volatility spike if Ethereum decisively breaks above or below the $2,290–$2,370 consolidation band.
