Since early June, SharpLink has adopted an ETH accumulation strategy, aggressively acquiring and staking the asset for yield. With an average cost basis of $3,011, the firm now sits on an unrealized profit of approximately $386 million.
In a massive push towards crypto, SharpLink appointed Joseph Chalom, a former BlackRock executive, as co-CEO.
Glassnode’s latest Relative Unrealized Profit chart shows that, despite ETH trading close to its March 2024 highs, current unrealized profits are significantly lower.
Despite $ETH trading near its March 2024 highs, unrealized profits are far lower. Back then, #ETH hit +2σ (standard deviations) on Relative Unrealized Profit at $3.98K – today it's just nearing +1σ. A move to +2σ now would imply ~$4.9K $ETH. pic.twitter.com/TdmCIzp3Pm

Back in March, ETH touched +2σ (standard deviations) at $3.98K. Today, it’s just crossing the +1σ threshold with prices near $3,860. Statistically, a move to +2σ from this point would suggest a potential target of $4,900.
The on-chain analytics firm’s study revealed that the current rally still has plenty of steam. Unlike previous market tops, on-chain profit-taking remains muted, implying that holders are in HODL mode.
On the daily chart, Ethereum has broken decisively above its upper Bollinger Band ($3,562) and continues to ride the wave with strong bullish momentum, making ETH a top crypto to buy.
The RSI sits at 77.16, entering overbought territory, but without divergence, suggesting strength rather than exhaustion. The MACD remains bullish, with a wide gap between the signal and MACD line, and the Balance of Power indicator reads firmly in the buyers’ favor.

Fibonacci extension levels drawn from the mid-May breakout put immediate resistance at $3,920 (Fib 3.618) and $4,182 (Fib 4.236).
These targets align with the MVRV Pricing Bands mentioned by analyst Ali Martinez, who believes that as long as $3,300 holds as support, ETH could rally toward $4,220 and even $5,140 in the coming weeks.
