\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIf history rhymes, here are the best ETH entry levels for the long-term.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

After barely setting a new price record last summer at nearly $5,000, ETH joined the rest of the market in the post-October slump and dumped by almost 50% in months. It tried to resume its run in mid-January when it jumped to $3,400, but it was rejected again, and the subsequent correction pushed it south to $1,800 on a couple of occasions.<\/p>\n

Although it has managed to defend that level for now, it still trades 45% lower than its mid-January peak. Substantial sell-offs have continued, while one popular analyst laid out what could be valid entry points for long-term exposure.<\/p>\n

Sell-Offs Continue<\/h2>\n

If we compare ETH\u2019s price with net flows into spot Ethereum ETFs, we will see a strong resemblance in investor behavior and price moves. For instance, the cumulative net flows peaked at over $15 billion in early October before the massive October 10 crash. Since then, outflows have consistently dominated, with investors pulling out well over $3 billion by February 24.<\/p>\n

In addition, Ethereum\u2019s co-founder has also joined the selling spree. CryptoPotato<\/em> has reported<\/a> on several occasions on Vitalik Buterin\u2019s substantial disposal of ETH tokens for the past several weeks. Most recent on-chain data shows that he has dumped roughly 17,000 ETH in less than a month, valued at around $34 million.<\/p>\n

In a post titled \u201cVitalik Buterin Is Selling Ethereum Near the Bottom,\u201d renowned analyst Ali Martinez explained<\/a> why the co-founder might regret his timing as the bottom could be closer than expected.<\/p>\n

ETH Entry Points<\/h2>\n

Martinez said one of the most reliable \u201cbottom-detection metrics\u201d for the largest altcoin \u2013 the MVRV Ratio \u2013 is currently at 0.78, while the asset has neared or reached a macro bottom at levels below 0.80.<\/p>\n

However, his disclaimer indicated that just because Ethereum is currently undervalued according to on-chain metrics, this doesn\u2019t mean that its price cannot go any lower \u2013 \u201cespecially during heavy distribution phases.\u201d<\/p>\n

If another correction is to occur, the analyst outlined the most critical levels that could hold its downfall \u2013 $1,800 (which was tested yesterday), followed by $1,584 (first major support below), $1,238 (secondary macro support), and $1,089 (deeper capitulation zone). Martinez believes these precise levels could be proper entry zones.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIf history rhymes, accumulation below $1,800 \u2013 particularly near $1,584, $1,238, and $1,089 \u2013 could offer strong long-term positioning. But, volatility is likely to persist before a confirmed bottom forms.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
