ETH drops 1.02% in 15 minutes: whale sell-offs and leverage liquidations drive short-term pressure

On March 4, 2026, from 20:45 to 21:00 (UTC), ETH experienced a 1.02% decline in return over 15 minutes, with price fluctuations ranging from 2149.69 to 2174.09 USDT, and an amplitude of 1.12%. Market attention increased during this period, volatility intensified, attracting a large amount of short-term capital participation, and investor caution significantly heightened. The main driving force behind this anomaly was large on-chain holders transferring substantial amounts of ETH to trading platforms and executing sell operations, leading to short-term selling pressure. Whale concentrated selling behavior tends to amplify price fluctuations in a market environment with low liquidity.
