ETH 15-minute decline of 0.79%: Large transfer entries and leverage liquidations trigger cascading selling pressure
On 2026-03-18 from 18:15 to 18:30 (UTC), ETH recorded a yield of -0.79% within a 1.04% amplitude, with price range between 2192.15-2215.12 USDT. Trading activity increased significantly, with heightened market volatility drawing increased attention. Capital concentrated unusual flows during this window, with notable short-term downward pressure evident, and social media discussion heat rising in sync.
The main driver of this anomaly was a single on-chain transfer of over 10,000 ETH entering a major exchange's hot wallet. This transfer was initiated by a "whale" account with historically low activity levels but large asset holdings.
