Here’s Why Ethereum Is Not Out Of The Woods Yet

Ethereum has been seeing some significant downside coming out of the weekend. This was triggered by the FTX hacker, who currently holds hundreds of thousands of ETH, dumping some of those coins for Bitcoin over the weekend. After dumping around 10,000 ETH, the digital asset had dumped more than 7%, as a large number of investors continue tracking the wallet.

There are a lot of eyes on the hacker’s wallet, which contains more than 180,000 ETH, coming out to over $200 million.

If the FTX hacker were to dump all 180,000 remaining tokens on the market, then there is not enough demand to soak it up at this time. The support at $1,000 is already weakened and would make for easy pickings for bears as well. Alternatively, the hacker could stop selling coins to wait for a price recovery which would give the market some time to actually find its footing.
