Getting informed Regulation Crypto

The stars seem perfectly aligned for Ethereum to start an explosive trajectory in the coming weeks! Indeed, since the approval of Ether ETFs in the United States on May 23, no less than 3 billion dollars of this digital currency have been massively withdrawn from centralized exchange platforms. A signal potentially announcing a shortage of supply in the crypto market!

Crypto: The dangerous decline of Ethereum reserves!

The latest figures couldn’t be clearer. Between May 23 and June 2, approximately 797,000 Ethers worth 3.02 billion dollars were siphoned off from the reserves of centralized exchange platforms. In other words, crypto investors have significantly reduced the available liquidity for an immediate sale.

This massive capital movement had the immediate effect of further reducing the circulating supply of Ether. And precisely, the very latest data from the analysis company Glassnode are very telling in this regard! According to their estimates, the percentage of the total supply of Ether currently held on exchange platforms has dropped to only 10.6%. Its lowest level in history for years!

An ideal ingredient for a new surge in prices

Normally, this very dangerous decline of reserves available could dramatically exacerbate the buying pressure on the Ether markets. Although contrary to the ideal of decentralization, this sudden contraction of the circulating supply has often been a precursor to powerful speculative bullish movements in the crypto sector.

And the opportunity couldn’t be more perfect at a time when the highly anticipated launch of Ether ETFs on the stock exchange is drawing closer. According to crypto analysts, this start of negotiations could even be a “legitimate possibility” by the end of June!

An already palpable enthusiasm that has not escaped the experts. Many are already predicting a scenario of spectacular surge for Ether, similar to that observed for Bitcoin after the start of BTC ETF negotiations last January.

Undeniably, all indicators seem to point to Ethereum soaring to new stratospheric heights in the very near future. The prospect of the first regulated ETFs combined with the severe contraction of its available supply could trigger an unprecedented buying frenzy. A golden opportunity for bold investors, but also a major risk of a devastating speculative bubble if euphoria were to take hold.
