- Ethereum’s MVRV showed that the price was much lower than fair value, trading at levels for the last time in 2023.
- A whale bought 3,659.83 ETH for $ 5.88 million in dollars after being dormant for 2.8 years despite a continuous drop.
The Z score of MVRV of Ethereum (ETH) plunged under the neutral zone at 0 to strike the accumulation zone that the market saw in late 2020 and 2023.
The price decreased by -45.3% during the T1 2025 to reach the levels of less than $ 2,000, seen for the last time in mid -2023.
MVRV Z-SCORES below 1 indicates that the price of the ETH was negotiated under its intrinsic value. At these times, investors are starting to buy Eth to hold in the long term.
A low-sustained MVRV reading could indicate a price undervaluation, which could invite participants to institutional and intelligent money and trigger price growth.

An extended stay in this area corresponds to a drop in the convictions of holders or to the increase in evidence of unpredictability of the market.
The Z-SCORE level exceeding 1 can initiate a new bull price action, but the drop in values can drive ETH to its bottom of the previous cycle.
Data has shown up to come to the coming purchasing behavior or continuous price drops.
How far could he go to trigger a reversal?
The ETH hovered nearly $ 1,580, remained between $ 1,612.59 of resistance and $ 1,566.14 in support. The price remained in this tight band for 48 hours, reflecting indecision.
In fact, such a narrow trading often precedes volatile rashes or net liquidations. A confirmed rupture greater than $ 1,620 could report a bullish renewal.

The ETH remaining under $ 1,566.14 would cause downward pressure that could push the market below $ 1,540 and potentially even around $ 1,500 if the time for the sale increased.
Commercial activity was low because market players were apparently preparing for a reversed trend. The increase in volume at the stops of this commercial range would confirm the break.
Whale activity adds complexity
Meanwhile, a previously inactive whale account returned online after 2.8 years to buy 3,65983 ETH which cost $ 5.88 million–A sign of optimistic market conditions.
The large -scale movement of these ETH through the Tornadocash network has suggested that more investors could prepare to buy.
However, a potential sale is looming while Galaxy Digital deposited 12,500 ETH in Binance, representing a total of 62,181 ETH.

Naturally, such entries have often preceded the sale pressure, in particular in uncertain price conditions. This activity involved an increased risk of decomposition if the request did not succeed.
That said, the start -up school also suggested confidence in a medium -term rebound. Ethereum was thus held at a crossroads – between a renewed accumulation and an imminent distribution.
