The institutional interest in Ethereum remains high. In the past 30 days, the strategic reserve value of Ethereum has surged by over $2 billion—what's behind this number? According to market data, the current strategic reserve has risen to 6.81 million ETH, with a total market value of $22.5 billion. Meanwhile, various ETFs are accelerating their holdings of Ethereum, with the holding scale directly surpassing 6.31 million ETH. The continued increase by institutional investors indicates that large funds' outlook on Ethereum's long-term prospects remains unchanged, and this wave of deployment shows no signs of a turning point in the short term.

Institutional momentum is indeed strong, but there's a detail in this data worth paying attention to — the combined strategic reserves and ETF holdings have reached 13.12 million coins. What does this mean? Market liquidity is gradually being locked in. In the short term, it looks positive, but the real test is whether they can hold onto these chips; otherwise, it could turn into a story of catching a falling knife at high levels.

With such a scale of large funds entering the market, it clearly indicates that no one is bearish. However, with 6.81 million tokens in strategic reserves and 6.31 million tokens in ETFs, how much of the circulating supply do these 13 million-plus tokens represent? The high concentration of holdings actually makes me a bit cautious.

Large capital deployments are indeed aggressive, but the logic behind these numbers needs to be understood clearly—are they genuinely optimistic about the fundamentals, or are they just hyping expectations? 6.81 million tokens sound like a lot, but what percentage of the total supply does that represent? It seems the media has been emphasizing this "institutional buying frenzy," but we also need to examine whether the actual supporting factors are solid.

Institutions' recent deployment is indeed aggressive, with 6.81 million battle reserves and 6.31 million ETFs. If this volume were to run away, that would be truly outrageous. However, the $2 billion increase completed within 30 days, which has a somewhat manipulative feel to it, suggests that true long-term optimism should be about steady accumulation rather than this kind of concentrated dumping.

Institutions are accumulating aggressively, indicating they have a clear understanding. However, while these numbers look promising, the real test is still ahead, and it depends on whether they can hold the line.

Institutional holdings data is indeed impressive, but one must be cautious—whether these numbers can continue to grow depends on the actual implementation and adoption in the future. Mere holding enthusiasm is not enough.
