Whales are buying ETH near $2,100 again. The level has seen this before.
Two wallets, possibly belonging to the same whale, spent $9.08M to buy 4,312 ETH at an average price of $2,106, according to on-chain tracking. The "same whale" link is an inference from wallet behavior, not a confirmed identity.
The price zone has history. Whale 0x2d85 bought 5,003 ETH at an average of $2,179 on March 13, 2026. That same day, another address bought 10,557 ETH at an average of $2,072. In February, a whale that had been dormant for two years bought over 4,000 ETH at an average of $2,174. Large buyers keep showing up around $2,100.
Here's the catch. By early July, ETH was trading closer to $1,740, based on data I saw earlier. Buying in the $2,100 zone didn't act as a floor then, which is why whale purchases are better read as conviction than as protection.
Keep the scale in view. $9.08M is about 2% of the $422.75M that left Ethereum ETFs over seven days, based on the Nov 5 table. Whales are buying into a flow that's still heading the other way.
The psychology is familiar. Weakness produces fear, and fear makes whale buying look like a signal. But a whale can buy into weakness and still be early, and ETH needs to reclaim resistance and show spot demand broadening beyond a handful of large wallets.
The risk is that ETH loses its recent lows and these buyers sit on losses. The supportive case is that large wallets keep adding while price stabilizes, which would show demand under the surface.
Whales can afford to be early. Followers usually can't.
