Can whale demand prevent ETH’s drop to $1,930?

At press time, Ethereum [$ETH] traded at $2056, down 5.56% on the daily charts, adding to its weekly losses.

Ethereum whales continue to buy the dip Although Ethereum has recorded relatively low performance through 2026, whale activity has remained elevated. Spot Average Order Size data showed large whale orders for two consecutive months. While some whales have sold during this time to reduce exposure, others have continued to accumulate. Onchain Lens reported that four wallets belonging to the same whale withdrew 32,880 $ETH, worth $70.03…

Ethereum activity hits 788K addresses – Can ETH finally break out?

Ethereum’s network activity has surged toward historic highs, with over 788K Daily Active Addresses interacting across the network. In addition, more than 255K new addresses are being created each day, reflecting sustained user onboarding. As more addresses interact with the network daily, underlying demand appears to strengthen beneath the surface. Yet, price behavior suggests that this demand has not fully translated into visible buying pressure. This gap raises a critical question about how much of this activity reflects organic growth versus structural positioning, leaving the market in a state where participation increases, but price direction remains unresolved. Ethereum price range…

Banks Took $434 Billion From Americans Last Year — Is it Time for Bitcoin?

Banks Took $434 Billion From Americans Last Year — Is it Time for Bitcoin? Banks extracted hundreds of billions from American savers last year — and the scale of it shows a deep structural issue in America’s financial system. Bitcoin might help. In 2025, U.S. banks generated roughly $434 billion in net interest income, or about $1,670 per adult, according to research from River. The mechanism is straightforward: banks take customer deposits, lend or invest those funds at higher rates, and return only a fraction of the yield to depositors. With most savings accounts offering close to zero interest, that…

Ripple joins Convera to streamline business payments with stablecoin rails

Convera said Tuesday it is partnering with Ripple to roll out crypto-enabled payment and treasury services for businesses, marking another sign that stablecoins are moving deeper into mainstream cross-border finance. The collaboration combines Convera’s commercial payments and FX network with Ripple’s blockchain-based liquidity and settlement infrastructure. Convera says the offering is designed to help businesses move money faster and more reliably, especially in payment corridors where traditional rails remain slow or costly. The structure is built around the stablecoin sandwich model, where a payment starts in fiat, settles through a regulated stablecoin, and ends in fiat again. That means enterprise…

BlackRock sees AI driving crypto’s next bull phase as altcoin interest fades

BlackRock’s head of digital assets, Robbie Mitchnick, signaled a shift in how large investors view crypto, pointing to artificial intelligence (AI) as a more meaningful driver than the expansion of new tokens. Speaking about client behavior, Mitchnick described a market that has moved away from broad exposure to smaller assets. He said the turnover among top tokens has been “pretty ferocious,” with only bitcoin BTC$70,122.25 and, later, ether (ETH) maintaining consistent positions. Many newer tokens, he suggested, fail to hold long-term relevance. That pattern has shaped investor demand. “The majority of that is nonsense,” Mitchnick said at the Digital Asset…
