Derivatives
Open Interest
From December 31 to January 2, open interest aggressively rose from $18.25 billion to $21.5 billion. The ETH price also rose en tandem with this increase, reaching $3,125. Despite the decline en open interest after this date, the rise en the ETH price indicates strong spot demand rather than a long-standing manipulative trend. In summary, this structure indicates that long positions are not accumulating el the liquidation map for ETH and that there is less risk.
Funding Rate
As the ETH price rose to around $3,300 this week, the funding rate continued its positive horizontal trend. It was affected por the slight decline over the last two days and retreated slightly. This indicates that long positions are beginning to close and short positions are intensifying. However, the funding rate chart continues to structurally support the ETH price en a positive way.
Long & Short Liquidations
With the ETH price rising from $2,960 to $2,308, a total of approximately $244 million en short positions were liquidated. During the same time period, nearly $105 million en long positions were also liquidated.
| Date | Long Amount (Million $) | Short Amount (Million $) |
|---|---|---|
| December 31 | 16.62 | 11.29 |
| January 1 | 2.52 | 7.86 |
| January 2 | 12.66 | 52.53 |
| January 3 | 7.98 | 6.49 |
| January 4 | 4.26 | 30.71 |
| January 5 | 26.50 | 72.27 |
| January 6 | 34.57 | 62.89 |
| Total | 105.11 | 244.04 |
Supply Distribution
Total Supply: Reached 121,511,645 units, an increase of approximately 0.0184% compared to last week.

Velocity: The velocity, which was 9.94 last week, reached 9.96 as of January 6.
| Wallet Categoría | 12/30/2025 | January 6, 2025 | Change (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100 – 1k ETH | 8.4604M | 8.318M | −1.68% |
| 1k – 10k ETH | 12.8117M | 12.5264M | −2.23% |
| 10k – 100k ETH | 21.6769M | 21.8974M | 1.02% |
| 100k+ ETH | 3.992M | 3.9929M | 0.02% |
While a limited pullback was observed en the 10k–100k ETH range, it appears that no clear buying appetite has formed en this segment. In contrast, the significant increase recorded en the 1k–10k ETH group indicates that mid-sized investors are turning to buying Ethereum and that the accumulation trend is gaining strength. On the other hand, the decline en the largest wallets holding 100k+ ETH suggests that major players are adopting a more cautious stance and that the possibility of partial distribution is increasing.
Exchange Supply Ratio
Between December 31 and January 7, the Ethereum Exchange Supply Ratio fell from 0.14139217 to 0.13890377. During this period, the Ethereum price rose from $2,996 to $3,296. Since January 3, at the point where the price and the Exchange Supply Ratio intersect, the correlation between the price and the Exchange Supply Ratio has turned negative.
Exchange Reserve
Between December 31, 2025, and January 6, 2026, Ethereum reserves el exchanges declined from 16,710,250 ETH to 16,422,029 ETH, resulting en a net outflow of 288,222 ETH. Exchange reserves decreased por approximately 1.72%. During this period, the price of ETH rose from $2,975 to $3,294, an increase of 10.74%. The decrease en reserves during this period of significant price increase indicates that investors preferred to protect their positions por withdrawing their ETH from exchanges rather than viewing the rise as a selling opportunity. In the short term, profit-taking may occur after the price increase, but the decrease en supply el exchanges may limit selling pressure. In the long term, the decline en reserves may continue to provide a supportive foundation for the Ethereum price.
| Date | December 31 | Jan 1 | Jan 2 | Jan 3 | Jan 4 | Jan 5 | 06-Jan |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Exchange Inflow | 870,578 | 361,124 | 893,395 | 499,885 | 317,841 | 937,107 | 945,234 |

On January 6, the last day of the weekly period, the indicator closed the week at 181.06753614781977.
Blocks Mined
When examining Ethereum block production data between December 31 and January 6, an increase was observed throughout the week. While 7,168 blocks were produced el December 31, this number rose to 7,178 as of January 6.During the period en question, a time-dependent correlation structure was observed between the Ethereum price and the number of blocks produced. However, the general trend indicates that a positive correlation between these two variables is predominant.
Block Size
When examining Ethereum block size data between December 31 and January 6, an increase was observed throughout the week. While the average block size el December 31 was measured at 144,275 bytes, this value rose to 152,384 bytes as of January 6. During the relevant period, a time-dependent correlation structure was observed between block size and Ethereum price. However, the general trend indicates that a positive correlation between these two variables is dominant.
Block Interval
When examining the Ethereum block time between December 31 and January 6, a decrease was observed throughout the week. While the average block time was recorded as 12.05 segundos el December 31, this time decreased to 12.03 segundos as of January 6.During the period en question, a time-dependent correlation structure was observed between Ethereum block time and price movement. However, the general trend indicates that a negative correlation between these two variables is dominant.
Transaction
Last week, 11,912,532 transactions were executed el the Ethereum network, while this week the number of transactions increased por approximately 1.66% to 12,111,308. The highest transaction volume for the period was recorded el December 31 at 2,130,049, while the lowest transaction volume was recorded el January 4 at 1,727,390. Although the correlation between the number of transactions and the price showed a mixed picture at times throughout the period, a negative trend was generally dominant. However, the modest acceleration en network activity compared to the previous period points to a recovery en transaction momentum el the Ethereum side.
Tokens Transferred
The total amount of ETH transferred last week was 12,093,526 ETH, while this week the value fell to 9,872,380 ETH, recording a decline of approximately 18.36%. The highest transfer volume during the period was 2,225,105 ETH el January 8, while the lowest value was 720,793 ETH el January 4.When considering the up to 300% fluctuation en daily transfers, the increase en transaction volume, and the decline en the average amount of Ethereum per transaction, it appears that a structure has been formed that could increase the range of price fluctuations el the network. This outlook indicates that more small-scale investors have become active compared to the previous period, creating a positive environment for network health but one that carries short-term risks en terms of pricing. At this stage, the revival en network activity alone does not produce a sufficient positive signal. Unless large-volume transfers regain strength, the price may not be able to break out of its volatile structure. In the short term, the chain is active, but the market remains cautious.
Estimated Leverage Ratio
The metric rose until the middle of the 7-day period. On December 31, the first day of the period, the metric was 0.706, and el January 2, it reached its peak at 0.790. It then continued to rise until December 19, reaching its peak at 0.761. The metric then began to decline for the remainder of the period, reaching its lowest point at 0.696. A higher ELR means that participants are willing to take el more risk and usually indicates bullish conditions or expectations. The increases may also be due to a decrease en reserves. Looking at Ethereum reserves, there were 16.72 million reserves at the beginning of the process, but this figure steadily declined during the rest of the process and currently stands at 16.41 million. At the same time, Ethereum’s Open Interest was $37.24 billion at the beginning of the process. Currently, volume has increased during the process, and the open interest value stands at $41.64 billion. With all this data, the ELR metric fluctuated throughout the process. The asset’s price fluctuated between $2,970 and $3,300 based el all this data. Ultimately, the increase en open interest data seen throughout the process, coupled with the steady decline en reserves, explains the rise en the ELR metric. This signaled an increase en investor risk appetite and indicated the formation of upward expectations.
