Ethereum Shows Strong Conviction As Long-Term Holders Ramp Up Accumulation
Long-term holders of Ethereum (ETH) have demonstrated unwavering conviction in 2024, with their collective holdings steadily increasing.
Currently, around 110 million ETH is held by these long-term investors, marking a significant rise in their stake over the past two years.
Social sentiment surrounding Ethereum has turned notably negative, reaching its lowest point since December 18, 2023—traditionally seen as a bullish signal. In fact, Ethereum surged by 30% in price when sentiment was at its lowest during that period, providing a potential indicator for future growth.
According to the latest Ethereum Hodler Report from @intotheblock, long-term ETH holders have accumulated approximately 37 million more tokens, a 50% increase, from 73 million to 110 million between December 2022 and 2024.
Despite the price volatility, ranging from $1,200 to $4,000, investors have shown strong resolve, continuing to buy and hold through market swings. This growing confidence suggests a belief in Ethereum’s long-term value.

The factors driving this trend include consistent accumulation amidst price fluctuations, sustained long-term investor confidence, and increasing belief in Ethereum’s fundamental value and its ecosystem’s future potential.
For crypto investors, key takeaways include monitoring hodler balances as a sentiment gauge, considering dollar-cost averaging strategies, and staying updated on Ethereum’s ecosystem developments. Maintaining a balanced and risk-aware portfolio will be crucial in navigating potential volatility.
Ethereum’s spot ETF also saw a boost, with $145 million in net inflows on December 17, marking the 17th consecutive day of positive inflows. BlackRock’s ETHA ETF led the way with a notable single-day inflow of $135 million, reinforcing the market’s optimism toward Ethereum.
