Analysis: After ETH broke below $2,000, retail investors continued “buying the dip,” but the market may fall further to $1,750.
According to Cointelegraph, Ethereum has broken below the $2,000 mark—the first time since March. Despite the ongoing price weakness, on-chain data indicates retail investors’ “buy-the-dip” sentiment continues to intensify. Santiment notes that historically, excessively optimistic retail sentiment often signals the market has not yet bottomed; genuine buying opportunities typically emerge during phases of market panic. On-chain data platform Glassnode shows that since 2026, whale addresses holding more than 10,000 ETH have reduced their holdings by over 5%. However, BitMine—founded by Tom Lee—still holds approximately 5.21 million ETH, representing roughly 4.31% of the total supply. Technically, ETH has broken below its ascending wedge pattern; analysts believe it may next test the $1,750 level, implying roughly an 18% further downside from current prices.
Tom Lee: Bitmine Could Be Added to Russell 1000 Index, Passive Capital Allocation Expectations Rise
Bitmine Chairman Tom Lee stated in a post on platform X that FTSE Russell has announced the preliminary list of index additions and deletions, and BitMine Immersion Technologies (ticker: BMNR) has been included in the list of companies under consideration for inclusion in the large-cap Russell 1000 Index.Tom Lee noted that Bitmine's current market capitalization has already exceeded the $5.7 billion threshold for inclusion in the Russell 1000 large-cap index. Since many active fund managers only invest in Russell 1000 components, if BMNR is officially added to the index, it could attract more institutional capital attention.Additionally, the market generally expects that approximately 20% to 25% of a stock's market capitalization is typically held by passive index funds and ETFs, meaning that eligibility for the Russell 1000 may further increase expectations for related passive capital inflows.
Bitmine Restakes Nearly 108,000 ETH, Total Staked Value Rises to $8.98 Billion

Researcher Defends Ethereum Foundation: Its Mission Isn't to "Pump ETH," But to Make Itself Gradually Irrelevant
Blockchain researcher and investor William Mougayar has come to the defense of the Ethereum Foundation, arguing that the public has long misunderstood its role and that it is "executing its mission precisely."Mougayar stated that ETH, the Ethereum network, and the Ethereum Foundation itself are three distinct entities: ETH is an asset, Ethereum is a shared computing infrastructure, and the Foundation is a non-profit organization responsible for driving protocol development, with one of its goals being to "gradually make the founder irrelevant."He pointed out that many critics want the Foundation to take on responsibilities like marketing ETH or attracting institutional capital, which would be akin to "expecting the IETF to run a Super Bowl ad for TCP/IP." He emphasized that the Ethereum Foundation is currently on a "subtraction path," strengthening the network by advancing protocol upgrades, funding fundamental research, and reducing its own centralized influence.Recently, the Ethereum Foundation has faced community criticism for selling ETH, unstaking, and a lack of public communication. Data shows that the Foundation has completed its third OTC sale this month to BitMine Immersion Technologies, cumulatively selling approximately 25,000 ETH worth about $47 million. Additionally, the Foundation has recently unstaked over 38,000 ETH in total, with a combined value nearing $90 million. (Cointelegraph)
