ETH 15-minute drop of 0.66%: Active addresses plunged and whales cut positions, triggering short-term selling pressure
2026-03-31 08:30 to 08:45 (UTC), ETH’s short-term return recorded -0.66%, with the price range between 2039.73 and 2054.49 USDT, and the amplitude reaching 0.72%. During this period, market volatility intensified, with a clear increase in trading attention, reflecting investors’ rapid reaction to risk events and a rise in safe-haven sentiment.
The main drivers behind this unusual move were a significant drop in the number of active addresses on-chain (down about 14.49% from the previous day to 490,239), which weakened network liquidity and reduced the market’s ability to absorb demand. Meanwhile, trading volumes also declined, indicating a cautious market sentiment and a wait-and-see attitude among investors.

2026-03-31 08:30 to 08:45 (UTC), BTC’s return over 15 minutes fell by 0.71%, with the price fluctuating in the 66,820.0 to 67,318.9 USDT range, an amplitude of 0.74%. During this period, market sentiment was cautious; volatility increased, with significant trading volume on major exchanges and rising market attention.
The primary drivers of this anomalous move were sustained outflows of large-scale ETF funds and a drop in liquidity caused by institutional investors reducing positions. In March 2026, the total ETF outflow exceeded $3 billion, and combined with this, large holders’ position share fell to 9 percent.
