Aggressive Ethereum HOD Lers despite market collapse
The recent increase in total sales is a breakthrough for Ethereum, given that it was bearish with a market capitalization of less than $ 250 billion this month and a market capitalization of less than $ 2,000.
Hodlers has been distributing more than half of ETH for over a year, despite the bearish outlook. They began to strengthen their ETH balance in January 2022, increasing the balance with each crash.
Most HOD Lers have accumulated ETH during price plunges as coins continue to overcome the pain of less than $ 1,800. ETH HODLer focuses on the long-term outlook for accumulated ETH, so it continues to buy and retain ETH despite market turmoil.
At this recent climax, Ethereum now beats Solana, Polygon, Ronin, Flow, Wax, Wave, Avalanche, Panini, Palm, Binance Smart Chain (BSC) and Tezos.
Why NFT projects are primarily in Ethereum
