Ethereum Surges: $393M Withdrawn from Exchanges, Institutional Investments Soar
  • On June 11, 2025, blockchain analytics firm Sentora reported a significant event in the Ethereum market, noting that over 140,000 ETH, valued at approximately $393 million, was withdrawn from centralized exchanges, marking the largest single-day outflow in over a month.

  • Historically, such withdrawals are viewed as bullish, as they suggest that investors are moving ETH to cold storage, which reduces sell-side pressure and tightens market supply.

  • Between June 9 and June 11, Ethereum ETFs saw impressive net inflows of $417.7 million, surpassing Bitcoin ETF inflows of $982 million during the same period, with $240 million of those inflows occurring on June 11 alone.

  • Crypto analyst Anthony Sassano highlighted that Ethereum ETFs have not experienced a single net outflow day since mid-May, indicating robust demand for Ethereum exposure.

  • Institutional interest in Ethereum is on the rise, with a report from 21Shares revealing that ETH's foundational role in the decentralized economy led to $150 million of inflows into Ether-based investment products in Europe during May 2025.

  • This growing institutional investment is contributing to Ethereum's bullish momentum, supported by positive on-chain metrics and an overall market sentiment that reflects increased investor confidence.

  • In a notable development, SharpLink Gaming, a Nasdaq-listed company, announced a $425 million private placement led by Consensys to establish a large ETH treasury, actively stake ETH, and engage with DeFi, with Consensys CEO Joe Lubin joining SharpLink's board as Chairman to emphasize strategic alignment.

  • As Ethereum approaches the psychological level of $3,000, a significant resistance zone has been identified at $3,140, where over 3.7 million addresses had previously accumulated ETH, which could intensify selling pressure as they reach breakeven.
