Following a market downturn, Ethereum has experienced a major increase in institutional purchasing; the Coinbase Premium Index reached a 2025 peak of +6.0, showing robust U.S. institutional demand. The premium shows the pricing difference between Binance, representing worldwide retail markets, and Coinbase, a hub for U.S. institutions, therefore indicating institutions are paying extra for Ethereum. Following a flash crash on October 10, 2025, which drove Ethereum to $3,686, companies like Bitmine Immersion Technologies, headed by Tom Lee of Fundstrat Capital, took While 15 whale wallets accumulated 406,117 ETH worth $1.6 billion, 128,718 ETH valued at $480 million were recorded. Additionally, U.S. spot ETH ETFs, mostly custodied by Coinbase, measured $1.3 billion of last week's $1.48 billion in worldwide Ethereum product inflows, bringing the annual total up to $13.7 billion.
Encouraged by institutional accumulation, Ethereum's recovery to $4,134, an 8% surge from recent lows, was accompanied by a 19% rise in trading volume to $56.2. billion, a 9.3% increase in open interest to $48 billion, and a 52.9% rise in futures volume to $128.1 billion. Historical patterns indicate that such Coinbase Premium rises usually come before major price increases; as seen during the November 2024 ETF debut and mid-2025 whale accumulation, each accompanied by 20–40% gains. With the upcoming Fusaka upgrade in December 2025 set to increase Ethereum’s block gas limit, analysts predict potential price targets of $4,600-$5,000 if institutional buying persists.
ETHUSD pared some of its gains due to profit booking. It hit a high of $4759 this week and is currently trading around $4521.
