Ethereum whales have significantly increased their holdings by around 430,000 ETH, valued at $1.3 billion, following the introduction of the AI-focused ERC-8004 standard. According to NS3.AI, despite this accumulation and technical indicators suggesting stabilization, market sentiment remains notably weak compared to previous major upgrades such as Pectra. A crucial obstacle to a sustained rally is the Smart Money Index, which continues to be below essential levels, indicating that broader smart investor involvement and sentiment recovery are yet to occur.
