ETF Inflows Drive Institutional Interest
Ethereum ETFs experienced strong inflows of $71.3 million recently. BlackRock led the charge with $32.5 million in a single day on May 27.
This represented one of the highest daily inflows since ETF launch. The ETHA and FETH funds drove most of the capital influx.

The positive flows followed net inflows during the third week of May. Earlier volatility came from outflows by Fidelity and Franklin.
Ethereum dominates bridged net flows across all networks. The blockchain also leads in stablecoin supply growth according to Artemis data.
The dual leadership suggests rising usage across DeFi protocols. This reinforces Ethereum’s position as the foundational Layer 1 blockchain.
Technical Levels Point to Potential Weakness
ETH price dipped below the 50% Fibonacci retracement level. This measured the move from the $2,463 swing low to the $2,787 high.
Current resistance sits near $2,625 on any bounce attempt. The next key resistance level comes at $2,650.
Major resistance appears at $2,720. A clear break above this level could send prices toward $2,780.
An upside break above $2,780 might trigger further gains. ETH could rise toward $2,880 or even $2,950 in that scenario.
Downside support sits at $2,600 initially. The first major support zone comes at $2,550.
This $2,550 level aligns with the 76.4% Fibonacci retracement. A break below could push prices toward $2,500 support.
Further losses might send ETH toward $2,440. The next key support sits at $2,400.
Current price hovers around $2,708 approaching recent local highs. The RSI climbed to 70.47 showing strong buying pressure.
The indicator sits at the edge of overbought territory. This suggests potential for short-term consolidation.
Chaikin Money Flow remained positive at 0.15. This indicates steady capital inflows continue.
A close above $2,720 with sustained volume could trigger a breakout toward $2,900.
