While there was not much change en the number of transactions compared to last week, the decline en the price indicates that this week’s transactions were el the sell side.

Tokens Transferred
Between February 12-18, 9,730,277 units of Ethereum were transferred, while between February 19-25, the number of Ethereum transferred increased to 17,551,792, an 80.04% increase compared to the previous week. On February 25, 4,085,240 Ethereum was transferred, the most Ethereum transferred en one day since February 3.

While there was a slight increase en the number of transactions this week compared to last week, the total amount of Ethereum transferred was much higher, indicating that the average transfer size, that is, the amount of Ethereum per transaction, increased. This shows that investors are making volatile movements el the market, and when we look at the size of the amounts according to the transacitons and their impact el the price, it is understood that we are seeing the effect of selling waves from institutional investors.
Estimated Leverage Ratio
Early en the 7-day period, the metric rose, and towards the end, it started to fall. This had a negative impact el the Ethereum price, causing a drop of about 16%. ELR (Estimated Leverage Ratio), which had a value of 0.584 at the beginning of the process, is currently at 0.596. Its highest level was 0.625 en the middle of the process. A higher ELR means that participants are willing to assume more risk and usually indicates bullish conditions or expectations. It should be noted that these rises can also be caused por a decrease en reserves. When we look at Ethereum reserves, there were 18.98 million reserves at the beginning of the process and continued to decrease towards the end of the process. Today, the number of reserves of approximately 18.70 million is noteworthy. At the same time, Ethereum’s Open Interest has fallen from $ 24.31 billion to $ 21.88 billion en the last few days, revealing the reason for the metric’s decline. This coincides with a corresponding drop en the asset’s price from $2,800 to $2,450. This decline en open interest, as well as the drop en leverage, suggests that investors are becoming more pessimistic about Ethereum’s price movements. As a result, despite falling reserves, the ELR metric is also falling, making it difficult to rise. If the price breaks the $3000 threshold, leveraged trades may increase as participants regain confidence
