This historic Ethereum signal has yet to appear this cycle – TradingView News
On-chain data suggests that this signal that historically occurred around Ethereum peaks has not yet appeared in the current cycle.
Ethereum Foundation wallets have not generated significant outflows this cycle so far
In a new article on X, market information platform IntoTheBlock discussed a trend that Ethereum observed alongside its previous market highs.
The model in question is linked to the net flows of wallets associated with the Ethereum Foundation. The ETH Foundation is a non-profit entity that supports the cryptocurrency and its ecosystem.
Below is the chart shared by the analytics company that shows the trend in the net amount of ETH (in USD) flowing into or out of wallets connected to this organization.

As the chart above shows, Ethereum Foundation net flows have generally taken negative values during recent bull markets. Negative net flows are naturally correlated to a net amount of movement of ETH out of wallets connected to the company.
Interestingly, the indicator saw particularly large red spikes around the cryptocurrency’s highs. As IntoTheBlock explains,
Historically, during each bull market, the Foundation has strategically sold significant quantities, often aligning these sales almost perfectly with market peaks.
The chart shows that the value of the indicator has been more or less neutral over the past few months, even though the price of the asset has increased significantly.
This suggests that the Ethereum Foundation has not made any significant sales during this bull market. Considering the historical trend, this may be a sign that a peak is not yet reached for the cryptocurrency, or at least the organization does not judge it as such.
Another explanation, however, could be that the non-profit organization has changed its strategy for this new cycle, meaning that the past trend would no longer have the same weight.
Furthermore, the official email of the Ethereum Foundation was recently compromised, as revealed by Tim Beiko, one of the developers of ETH, in an article X.
The developer had noted that the organization was trying to contact SendPulse, an email automation service used by the company, to resolve the issue.
In a follow-up post, Beiko confirmed that the team had sent an update to Ethereum Foundation blog subscribers, warning them that the previous email, announcing a “staking platform” by the organization, resulted from the compromise.
“We should have locked down all external access, but we are still confirming,” the developer said in the post.
