Recent accumulation linked to the Sun came amid what could be the return of bullish sentiment on Ethereum, especially with bulls working to push the crypto higher.

On-chain data shows that more than 260,000 ETH worth $781 million was withdrawn from exchanges in the last seven days after the recent approval Spot Ethereum ETFs in Hong Kong.
The price of Ethereum has been consolidation in a range between $2,900 and $3,700 per month currently. However, the crypto has reported positive accumulation trend over the past few days.
