Ethereum price declined in the last 24 hours due to massive whale movements to centralized exchanges. A whale moved 80,000 ETH worth approximately $185 million from Arbitrum with similar movements in the same time frame.

Recently, a Pepe coin whalemoved 4 trillion tokens from Bybit exchange. This led to speculations on the price of the asset following the recent rebound.
Meme coins marked a turnaround after the price of Bitcoin regained $57k this week. Flows to crypto exchanges point to a sale while outflows to other custodians are viewed as long-term holdings.
