Ethereum News Update: While Ethereum Dominates with $201B in Tokenized Assets, Institutional Investments Grow Amid Price Challenges
- Ethereum leads tokenized assets with $201B, 64% of $314B market, driven by institutional AUM surging 2,000% since 2024. - ETH price struggles under $3,590 as technical indicators flag resistance at $3,880-$4,070 and rising exchange outflows. - Stablecoins ($18T annualized volume) and $12B RWA tokenize real-world assets, expanding Ethereum's utility beyond settlement. - Derivatives show $40.67B open interest but leveraged longs risk cascading liquidations if $4,070 resistance fails.
Ethereum's increasing influence within the tokenized asset sector is transforming how investors assess both its network fundamentals and its native cryptocurrency,
Despite these advances, Ethereum's price faces downward pressure, with significant outflows from exchanges and unsuccessful breakout attempts raising the risk of a larger decline. ETH is currently trading near $3,590, remaining below a downward trendline that has halted every upward move since early October
Data from derivatives markets paints a mixed outlook for ETH.
Experts are split on Ethereum's short-term direction. While the expansion of tokenized assets and institutional AUM suggests a firmer base, technical signals urge caution. ETH's struggle to reclaim the 50-day EMA ($3,893) or the 100-day EMA ($3,881) supports a cautious market stance. For now, the 200-day EMA at $3,596 serves as a crucial support, and repeated tests are likely to reinforce its importance as a price floor
