rewrite this title Ethereum Accumulators At A Crucial Moment: ETH Realized Price Tests Make-Or-Break Point | Bitcoinist.com

Compared to other major crypto assets in the market, Ethereum’s price performance is still lagging, and it has been unable to make any significant upward move in months. Given the prolonged waning price performance, on-chain data shows that a substantial portion of ETH investors are currently in the red.

ETH Realized Price Nears Breaking Point

FundingVest, an on-chain data analyst and verified author, revealed that Ethereum’s market dynamics have reached a decisive moment. In the post on the X (formerly Twitter) platform, FundingVest highlighted that ETH’s accumulation addresses are now at a pivotal juncture as the altcoin’s realized price teeters on a critical make-or-break level.

After navigating the ETH Realized Price For Accumulation Addresses metric, it appears that the asset has broken below the cost basis of accumulation wallet addresses. This make-or-break moment is likely to determine whether Ethereum experiences more selling pressure that would shake the network’s faith or regain its upward momentum.

Presently, ETH is trending under the realized price of long-term holders, a crucial level that usually serves as solid support for the altcoin in bullish cycles. One thing is certain: When the price falls below the long-term holders’ realized price, caution is advised, as this development might lead to significant losses in the future. Meanwhile, a quick reclaim above this level hints at a potential bullish reversal in price.

According to the expert, this indicates mounting strain on wallets that amassed significant wealth between the 2020 and 2021 market cycles. Dips below the long-term holders’ realized price are uncommon and frequently brief in the past. 

However, persistent weakness in the zone can point to a more significant change in the market. With ETH’s current market price dropping below the average cost basis of these accumulators, this raises questions about its sustainability and prospects. 

ETH Supply In Profit Drops Below Levels Of Past Bear Market

ETH continues to face bearish pressure, limiting its potential for a major price rally. This persistent downward movement led to a historic low in the percentage of Ethereum supply in profit, indicating a weak market sentiment.

Crypto analyst and trader Venturefounder reported that the ETH percentage supply in profit has fallen to 40%. According to the expert, this level is lower than the last bear market cycle bottom, around 42% when the altcoin was trading at the $800 mark.

Considering the sharp drop, Venturefounder claims it is already a clear signal to deploy. Although the drop in supply profit calls for alarm, there is still a positive side to the development, especially if it falls to about 30%. Should it ever reach 30%, which is the green zone on the chart, the expert noted that it will create generational buy opportunities for investors.

Venturefounder also revealed in another post that the ETH Realized Price Multiple has declined to its last cycle bottom level. The expert considers this drop another on-chain buy signal for the altcoin.
