- Ethereum Foundation-related wallet has been dumping ETH on exchanges.

Ethereum (ETH) is down 0.4.% on Thursday following speculations surrounding the potential negative impact of Grayscale’s Ethereum Trust fees and ETH dump from the Ethereum Foundation.
Daily digest market movers: Grayscale’s fee, Ethereum Foundation dump
The Grayscale Ethereum Trust 2.5% fee has left many ETHE holders fuming as the asset manager maintained the high fee structure it applied to Bitcoin ETFs.
Several analysts predicted that the move may see Grayscale’s Ethereum Trust suffer increased outflow similar to its Bitcoin counterpart when ETH ETFs go live. As a result, it could cancel out potential inflows in other Ethereum ETFs, reducing the upward impact on ETH’s price.
Ethereum ETF issuers filed their final S-1 registration statements on Wednesday, revealing fees for their respective products. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) also approved 19b-4 filings of Grayscale’s Mini Trust and ProShares Ethereum ETFs, two of the latest additions to the ten funds potentially launching on Tuesday.

ETH technical analysis: Ethereum could rally above the $4,093 yearly high
Ethereum is trading around $3,400, down 0.4% in the past 24 hours. The move has seen ETH liquidations reach $30.90 million, with long and short liquidations accounting for $22.08 million and $8.82 million, respectively.
Since the crypto market recovery, Ethereum’s Taker Buy/Sell Ratio has been in an uptrend, according to CryptoQuant’s data.
ETH Taker Buy/Sell Ratio
The Taker Buy/Sell Ratio estimates the dominant sentiment among futures traders. Values above 1 suggest bullish pressure is dominant, while values below 1 indicate bearish pressure.
If the Taker Buy/Sell Ratio uptrend continues, ETH will likely ride the bullish wave further. And with spot Ethereum ETFs set for a potential Tuesday launch, ETH bears could see heavy liquidations.
On the upside, ETH faces resistance around $3,977, a level it has failed to overcome since descending from its yearly high of $4,093 in March. ETH options data also shows several call options with a strike price of $4,000. Hence, prices are likely to tilt towards this level in the long run.
ETH/USDT 8-hour chart
A successful move above this resistance level could see ETH rally to a new all-time high in the coming months. On the downside, ETH may find support around the $3,000 psychological level.
ETH could drop to $3,360 in the short term, where $24.39 million long positions risk liquidation.
