The Ethereum Foundation unstaked 17,000 ETH, worth about $40 million, as it approached a 70,000 ETH staking milestone. The move has contributed to bearish sentiment around Ethereum, including concerns that the asset could test $4,000 in April due to potential liquidity needs. In the longer-dated market, ETH is priced with a $10,000 target by December 31, 2026, with a 4.0% “YES” share.
With six days left until the end of April, the market for Ethereum reaching $4,000 by then currently shows limited trading activity. Combined daily face value across Ethereum markets totals $3,469, while only $114 in actual USDC is traded. The large difference between notional and real volume suggests that relatively small trades could move prices. Recent price movement has been negligible, with no clear sign of significant new positioning.
The Foundation’s decision to unstake indicates a potential shift in treasury strategy, which could involve managing liquidity or rebalancing holdings. At a price of 0.04 USD, a “YES” share for Ethereum reaching $10,000 by December 31, 2026 implies a 25x return. However, the odds also reflect deep skepticism about the likelihood of that outcome.
Investors will likely focus on any announcements from Vitalik Buterin or the Ethereum Foundation related to protocol upgrades or major partnerships, as these could change the outlook. Additional unstaking activity from the Foundation would also be important to monitor, as it may signal continued liquidity needs or a broader change in how the Foundation manages its treasury.
