- ETH profits hit $553M/day, up from earlier lows.
- Short-term holders see bigger gains than long-term holders.
- Current surge mirrors December 2024 long-term profit levels.
Ethereum profit realization (7-day SMA) is showing strong momentum again, climbing to $553 million per day. While this figure is below July’s peak of $771 million/day, it still marks a significant uptick compared to earlier in 2025. The gains are not evenly distributed — short-term investors are locking in much larger profits than their long-term counterparts.
This shift comes after a July high that even outpaced December 2024 profit realization levels, a period noted for elevated market activity and strong sentiment.
Long-Term Holders Hold Steady
Interestingly, profits from long-term Ethereum holders are currently matching the levels seen in December 2024. This suggests that while these investors are still booking gains, they are not increasing their selling pace significantly. Their activity points to a strategy focused on gradual realization rather than chasing short-term price spikes.
Market Implications of the Current Trend
The dominance of short-term holders in profit realization can influence market volatility. A wave of selling from these participants often brings short-lived price pullbacks, but it can also indicate broader confidence in ETH ’s liquidity and demand. If both short- and long-term holders were to ramp up profit-taking simultaneously, the market could see sharper price swings.
For now, Ethereum’s on-chain data suggests that active profit-taking from short-term traders is fueling the latest surge, while the long-term holder base remains relatively steady — a balance that could shape ETH’s price behavior in the weeks ahead.
