Ethereum’s key support zone is currently at $2,300, where around 2.4 million addresses have purchased a total of 52.6 million ETH. If the price dips below this level, it could trigger a wave of selling pressure as investors seek to minimize their losses, potentially leading to a further decline. This support level is seen as crucial for Ethereum’s short-term stability, and market participants are keeping a close eye on this zone.
