Ethereum holders, watch out for THIS as over 45,000 ETH flood exchanges

• Over 45,000 ETH were deposited to exchanges on 8th April
• ETH has fallen by over 1%.

Ethereum [ETH] experienced a price rise at the end of trading on 8th April. This surge in price coincided with an increase in exchange inflow as Alameda seized the opportunity to capitalize on its holdings.

Alameda dumps more Ethereum

Recent data tracked by Spot on Chain revealed that Alameda Research of FTX deposited Ethereum to the Coinbase exchange. The data indicated that Alameda deposited 4,000 ETH, valued at around $14.7 million when ETH was trading at approximately $3,688.

This deposit marked the first significant move by Alameda since February, coinciding with a rally in ETH prices.

FTX and Alameda have deposited over 21,000 ETH, amounting to more than $72 million. Alameda’s recent move mirrors the pattern observed in the market on 8th February, characterized by a significant influx of ETH into exchanges.

Traders take advantage of the Ethereum rally

The Exchange Netflow data analysis revealed that Ethereum experienced its highest exchange flow for the month on 8th April. Moreover, the analysis indicated that ETH inflow predominated the flow, indicating that more traders were depositing their holdings onto exchanges.

However, there was a reversal in the flow at the time of writing, with more outflow recorded. Over 35,000 ETH have been withdrawn from exchanges thus far. This movement could be attributed to the slight pullback in ETH’s price at the time of writing.
