Retail investors are selling, but Ethereum is rising? The market may be playing out a “reverse sentiment” scenario

As the market continues to rebound, on-chain data shows an interesting phenomenon: small investors are accelerating their sell-off of Ethereum.
In the past 48 hours, wallets holding 0.01 ETH or less have collectively decreased by approximately 1,791 ETH, which is about $4.16 million at current prices.
Meanwhile, Ethereum has risen by about 17% since March 29.
📊 Market sentiment is splitting:
Many retail investors believe this rally is only a “bull trap,” so they choose to exit on the rebound. But based on historical experience, when the market is broadly skeptical about the rally, it may actually mean the trend still has room to go higher.
💡 Expert perspective:
A recurring phenomenon in the crypto market is:
Retail investors panic-sell
Funds keep accumulating
Prices keep climbing
This emotional mismatch often becomes an important force to drive the trend to continue.
🌱 Trading takeaways:
The market’s biggest adversary is actually emotion.
When most people leave out of fear, it often means that a real opportunity is brewing. #WCTC交易赛瓜分800万USDT #Gate13周年 #高盛申请比特币收益型ETF $FUN $NOM
