Ethereum (ETH) has pulled back from its March high by about 9%, with on-chain data shared by analyst Wise Crypto showing a split between whale selling and fresh accumulation.

According to the trader, the next few days will test whether buyer demand can absorb selling pressure as key levels at $2,027 and $2,148 come into focus.

Whale Selling vs. Steady Accumulation Flows

In a post on X on March 24, Wise Crypto explained that ETH had dropped from its March high to around the $2,100 level after large holders distributed into the rally.

At the same time, investors withdrew ETH from exchanges worth about $1.8 billion, a move the analyst linked to longer-term holding rather than immediate selling. The situation created a short-term standoff that put the $2,027 level under scrutiny as a critical support zone while $2,148 became near-term resistance.

According to Wise Crypto, if ETH breaks above the resistance, it could reopen upward momentum, but if it drops below support, it may be exposed to more downside toward $1,928.

Yesterday, another analyst, Ali Martinez, said that Ethereum had entered a historically undervalued zone after its MVRV ratio dropped below 0.8.

He identified the $2,000 to $1,800 range as a strong base for buyers, while pointing to a key resistance level at $2,356, which he claimed could open a path to $2,647 and $3,639.

Meanwhile, data shared by Arab Chain points to uneven demand across regions, with Ethereum’s Coinbase Premium Index at about -0.0149.

A low reading indicates that Ethereum is being sold on Binance higher than on Coinbase. This would mean that U.S. investors are less interested in buying ETH than international traders, suggesting that the recent price rebounds have not really attracted strong participation from the Americans.

Here’s What’s Shaping ETH’s Outlook

This mixed backdrop can even be seen in ETH’s latest price data, with the asset gaining 5% in the last 24 hours to go back above the $2,100 level after briefly flirting with $2,000. It is also up by nearly 10% over 30 days, although performance across the last week has been weaker, with Ethereum shedding more than 6% of its value in that period.

Beyond the short-term volatility, there’s longer-term data showing the possibility of tightening supply conditions. For example, XWIN Research has noted that ETH reserves on exchanges have fallen to about 16.2 million coins, their lowest level since 2016, while around 37 million others are locked in staking.

What this does is reduce the amount of ETH that’s readily available for sale. Furthermore, there has been rising network activity, with XWIN suggesting that the increase reflected real demand and not just speculative trading.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening. However, she noted that this data is backward-looking, indicating that it doesn’t show the current state of the economy. She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
