ETH whales buy more as Ethereum dominance falls to 8%

Whales are using the dip to aggressively buy Ethereum, even as the top altcoin’s dominance falls to historical lows of 8%. Like many other altcoins, Ethereum ( ETH ) remains largely weak as sell-off pressure for risk assets continues. Tariffs are a major factor in this environment, which has Bitcoin ( BTC ) choppy and equities wobbly. Ethereum’s price has dropped 46% in the past year, significantly underperforming Bitcoin. According to crypto analyst Rekt Capital, ETH dominance has steadily decreased since June 2023, falling from 20% to 8%. However, the analyst says Ethereum has historically seen its market cap dominance bounce whenever it falls to current levels. If history repeats, ETH could see a fresh leg up. Is the dip a buy opportunity? Large investors – otherwise called whales – seem to suggest so .
