Last night, ETH experienced a plummet that caught many people off guard. The 24-hour drop was 3.75%, with the price hitting 2833 USD. This fluctuation has indeed caused quite a stir in the market, and some are beginning to worry whether the market adjustment will evolve into a larger change. However, from the perspective of institutional movements, things may not be that simple.



The core contradiction in the current market is right there: on one side is the confidence of institutions in the long-term outlook, while on the other side is the uncertainty brought about by short-term fluctuations. The most interesting thing is that in this fluctuation, we can see what institutions are doing.

According to on-chain data, the entity BitMine related to Tom Lee has quietly increased its holdings by 48,049 ETH, estimated at about $140 million at the current price. This action is significant — institutions are not in panic but are instead positioning themselves at low levels. Their logic is clear: the core position of ETH in the blockchain financial ecosystem has not shaken, and the current valuation is an entry point. This is not a retail follow-the-trend operation, but an institutional judgment of long-term value.

From a technical perspective, the 6-period RSI has plummeted to 21.84. What does this number indicate? An RSI below 30 is an oversold signal, and 21.84 means that the market has indeed reached a state of extreme pessimism in the short term. This extreme situation is often a turning point for market sentiment.

Connecting these pieces of information, institutions are increasing their positions, and the technical indicators are flashing oversold signals. This wave of Fluctuation resembles a game rather than a panic-induced crash. For those who can see clearly, this is rather a window to understand the market's true sentiments.

BitMine's recent move to increase the position is quite aggressive, with $140 million directly invested. The institutions really aren't panicking. The RSI falling to 21.84 is indeed incredible; this should be a bottom signal. While retail investors are crying for help, the pros are already buying the dip. Why does it feel like there's always this script every time there's a big dump? Ordinary people cut loss while institutions are laughing.

Institutions are buying, retail investors are cutting losses, it's an old script. The actions of BitMine are really not a joke. --- The RSI has dropped to the 20s and there are still people shouting short? Either they're brainless or just pretending. --- This is what real low-position layout looks like, unlike some people who shout to buy the dip every day but don't make a single move. --- Damn, another wave of 3% plummet, I almost pressed the wrong button, haha. --- Does the fact that institutions are increasing the position by 140 million dollars mean anything? Why haven't these retail investors reacted yet? --- Wait, are Tom Lee and the others really hoarding? Should I also enter a position... --- The oversold signal is right here, how far can this rebound go? --- Just watch how institutions move, don't listen to those analysts bragging about amazing things.

BitMine quietly bought $140 million worth of ETH, I knew this wasn't a panic sell. Institutions are buying the dip, retail investors are playing people for suckers, it's always this pattern. The RSI has fallen to 21.84, what are you afraid of? Isn't this an opportunity? Just look at Tom Lee's actions to understand, big money never competes with cheap goods.

BitMine quietly increased their position by 140 million USD, and we are still worried here? Wake up everyone! Institutions are already buying the dip, the RSI has broken 21, is this still called adjustment? Those people from Tom Lee won't deceive us, 48,049 ETH says it all. When retail investors are in panic is just the right window to enter a position, if you don't understand, don't operate blindly. This is the information spread, smart money is always one step ahead of you.
