ETH nears potential December red close, 75% of 2025 could follow suit.

As of late December, Ethereum is approaching a potential red closing for the month, which could mark 75% of red months in 2025. Historical data indicates consolidation within $2,800-$3,000, affecting overall trading behavior.

The month of December shows Ethereum trading near $3,016, reflecting a 2.7% increase over 24 hours. If it closes below its December start of ~$2,992, Ethereum could end the year negatively for most months.

Institutional factors are in play as Ethereum ETFs saw outflows of $853.9 million, suggesting possible widespread de-risking. This movement reflects larger concerns within financial markets before December’s end.

Such outflows underscore investor caution towards Ethereum’s end-year performance. There is notable impact on assets like BTC, which eyes levels above $70,000 amid broader market volatility.

Experts highlight that Ethereum’s current trajectory poses challenges for stakeholders. Absent official commentary from key Ethereum figures, potential dips could foster news waves across financial landscapes.

Prediction markets currently maintain optimism  about maintaining levels above $2,900, revealing mixed market sentiments. Past consolidation trends suggest volatility could break through current ranges, affecting broader market stability.
