Techub, citing CryptoPotato, reported that crypto analyst Ali Martinez said Ether could move toward $5,000 if it clears the key resistance zone between $2,722 and $2,970. URPD data shows roughly 16.7 million ETH sitting in that range as a supply wall, while the next major MVRV pricing band stands near $5,363 if a breakout takes hold. Martinez also pointed to whale accumulation. Over the past week, the number of addresses holding more than 10,000 ETH rose 1.74%, with 17 new whale addresses added. During the same period, more than 180,000 ETH, valued at about $440 million based on the figures in the report, flowed out of exchanges, which the report said signals stronger buying pressure. On the fund flow side, U.S. spot Ether ETFs posted heavy inflows this week. Net inflows from Wednesday to Friday reached $189 million, $221 million, and $185 million, respectively. The report said that marked the largest run of inflows since October 2025.
