Raise

Ethereum Foundation, a prominent non-profit organization, has made headlines with the significant sales of its native token, ETH. The non-profit sold 300 Ethereum, valued at $760,000, earlier today at an average price of $2,543.&nbsp;
This sale came after the foundation briefly paused its selling activity. The sale occurred when Ethereum’s price experienced volatility, hitting a low of $2,440 but then going up by 5% from that low point.

Due to its notable selling patterns, the Ethereum Foundation has become a focal point for market watchers and participants. An analytics account on X, Spot On Chain, revealed that the foundation had initially <a href="https://x.com/spotonchain/status/1835621720281268625?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1837078200184361446%7Ctwgr%5E94ab511dc704e5bc1cb6d94d500b5a5d592d2695%7Ctwcon%5Es3_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fcoinjournal.net%2Fnews%2Fethereum-foundation-sells-300-eth-as-price-hits-2-5k%2F" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">dumped a substantial lump of 100 Ethereum</a> following the <a href="https://x.com/spotonchain/status/1837078200184361446?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1837078200184361446%7Ctwgr%5E94ab511dc704e5bc1cb6d94d500b5a5d592d2695%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fcoinjournal.net%2Fnews%2Fethereum-foundation-sells-300-eth-as-price-hits-2-5k%2F" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">300 Ethereum sale</a>.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, in May 2024, the foundation sold 1,000 Ethereum for over $3 million, bringing its year-to-date sales total to 1,766 Ethereum. At that time, the digital asset value was more than $4.8 million.&nbsp;
The on-chain insight platform noted that the foundation has been selling the underlying digital asset since September, totaling 950 Ethereum sales. These transactions brought in over $2.2 million, with each Ethereum being sold at an average price of $2,392. The foundation follows a steady pattern of selling every 4 to 7 days. This trend has attracted significant attention as traders closely monitor the foundation’s decisions.

The latest sale of 300 Ethereum follows a surge in Ethereum’s price, which recently climbed from below $2,200 earlier in the month. Despite this increase, Ethereum is still quite far from its <a href="https://thecoinrise.com/ethereum-eth-skyrockets-past-4000-pushd-pushd-e-commerce-frenzy-grips-chainlink-link-binance-coin-bnb-investors/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">peak of $4,000, which it reached in March</a>. According to CoinMarketCap data, the digital asset is currently trading at $2,524.91, up by 4.15% in the last 24 hours.&nbsp;
This significant price spike in Ethereum has been closely tied to a broader market rally, which also caused Bitcoin’s market price to surge. Recently, the Federal Reserve revealed its decision to cut interest rates by 0.5%. This move by the Fed has boosted confidence across the cryptocurrency market, reflecting on the rapid price increases seen by the two leading cryptocurrencies.&nbsp;
<h2 id="b-massive-offloads-raise-etf-concerns-b">Massive Offloads Raise ETF Concerns</h2>
The crypto community has expressed concerns about the Ethereum Foundation’s recent massive offloads of Ethereum. Many believe that these large sales could negatively impact the market value of Ethereum Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) in the short term.&nbsp;
Market participants fear that sustained offloading could undermine confidence in both Ethereum and related investment products.
