ETH maxis scream for $3K, but data shows pro Ether traders cautiously positioned
2025-07-10 21:54:50
Main Idea
Ether price is nearing $3,000 but lacks key support from derivatives markets and network activity, despite recent gains and ETF inflows.
Key Points
1. Ether price rallied 13.5% over two days to $2,925, but traders remain unconvinced about breaking $3,000 due to weak derivatives signals.
2. ETH 30-day futures premium is at 5%, on the edge of neutral/bearish territory, showing professional traders lack confidence in a sustained rally.
3. Ethereum network fees fell 22% to $34.8 million over 30 days, reducing ETH burn rate and disappointing investors despite rising TVL ($73B).
4. Ethereum layer-2s generated $58.6B in DEX volumes, but lower rollup fees haven’t boosted ETH demand; Solana and Tron outperformed in fee generation.
5. Recent ETH price gains are partly driven by $468M net inflows into US-listed ETFs and treasury purchases by ShapLink Gaming and Bit Digital.
Description
Ether price is on the verge of breaking the $3,000 resistance but key components needed to hold the level are still missing.
