Ethereum whale wakes up: 2,000 ETH moved after a decade in cold storage
A decade-old Ethereum wallet just moved 2,000 ETH, turning a $620 initial investment into $4.2 million. While the ETH/BTC ratio struggles and some see this as a distribution warning, the massive imbalance in the staking queue tells a different story. Staking demand currently dwarfs exit pressure by a factor of 53,000, proving that long-term conviction in the network remains dominant.

Grayscale exec warns XRP ETFs could lock up 6 percent of total supply
Grayscale research head Zach Pandl predicts that increasing ETF adoption will remove 5 to 6 percent of XRP circulating supply into long-term custody. This shift mimics the supply dynamics observed in Bitcoin and Ethereum, effectively tightening liquidity for retail traders. With institutional giants like Morgan Stanley already disclosing exposure, the resulting supply squeeze could significantly amplify price volatility during demand surges.
