The price of Ethereum had quite a rough performance over the past week, falling from its usual range above the $4,600 level to below $4,500. Despite the injection of bullish momentum into the market by the US Federal Reserve’s interest rate cut, the “king of altcoins” failed to sustain its rally back to the $4,600 region.

According to the latest on-chain data, the Ethereum price could be gearing up for an even longer time in the cold, as investors seem to be turning away from the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. The question, though, is how deep the price of ETH will fall in the coming weeks?

ETH Price At Risk Of Return To $1,500?

In a recent post on the social media platform X, pseudonymous crypto analyst Darkfost revealed that the Ethereum investors might be flooding out of the market at the moment. This observation is based on the recent downturn in the ETH Taker Buy-Sell Ratio on the world’s largest crypto exchange by trading volume.

The Taker Buy-Sell Ratio is an on-chain indicator that compares the proportion of the taker buy volumes to the taker sell volumes on crypto exchanges. When the value of this metric is greater than one, it signals that the taker buy volume is higher than the taker sell volume on a crypto exchange. This trend typically points to the willingness of more traders to purchase coins at a higher value on the trading platform.

Meanwhile, a less-than-one value for the Taker Buy-Sell Ratio typically means that the taker sell volume is higher than the taker buy volume on the exchange. Ultimately, this low value indicates that more sellers are offloading their assets at a lower price, precipitating bearish pressure in the market.

According to data from CryptoQuant, the Ethereum Taker Buy-Sell Ratio fell below the 1 threshold to around 0.87 on Friday, September 19. This latest decline marked the third time this metric has fallen this low so far in 2025.

As observed in the above chart, Darkfost noted that the indicator fell as low as 0.85 in January and February 2025. This ratio decline coincided with the bearish trend, during which the price of Ethereum fell to around the $1,500 region.

As of the time of publishing their post on X, Darkfost revealed that the 7-day average of the Taker Buy-Sell Ratio stood at 0.93, which is still short of the 1 threshold. The on-chain analyst concluded that while the Ethereum price is looking to break above the $5,000 milestone, more investors seem to be increasingly betting against the altcoin’s rally. 

Although it is highly unlikely to see a downturn similar to the one in 2025’s first quarter, the latest on-chain events suggest that the price of ETH could still face some bearish pressure in the coming weeks.

As of this writing, the price of ETH stands at around $4,475, reflecting a mere 0.4% leap in the past 24 hours.

Opeyemi is a proficient writer and enthusiast in the exciting and unique cryptocurrency realm. While the digital asset industry was not his first choice, he has remained absolutely drawn since making a foray into the space over two years. Now, Opeyemi takes pride in creating unique pieces unraveling the complexities of blockchain technology and sharing insights on the latest trends in the world of cryptocurrencies.

Opeyemi savors his attraction to the crypto market, which explains why he spends the better parts of his day looking through different price charts. “Looking” is a rather simple way to describe analyzing and interpreting various price patterns and chart formations. However, it appears that is not Opeyemi’s favorite part - in fact, far from it.

Being able to connect what happens on a price chart to on-chain movements and blockchain activities is what keeps Opeyemi ticking. “This emphasizes the intricacies of blockchain technology and the cryptocurrency market,” he would say. Most importantly, Opeyemi thinks of any market insights as the gospel, while recognizing that he is only a messenger.

When he is not clicking away at his keyboard, Opeyemi is most definitely listening to music, playing games, reading a book, or scrolling through X. He likes to think he is not loyal to a particular genre of music, which can be true on many days. However, the fast-rising Afrobeats genre is a staple in Opeyemi’s Spotify Daily Mix.

Meanwhile, Opeyemi is a voracious reader who enjoys a wide category of books - ranging from science fiction, fantasy, and historical, to even romance. He believes that authors like George R. R. Martin and J. K.
Rowling are the greatest of all time when it comes to putting pen to paper. Opeyemi believes his reading of the Harry Potter series twice is proof of that.

Indeed, Opeyemi enjoys spending most of his time within the four walls of his home. However, he also sometimes finds solace in the company of his friends at a bar, a restaurant, or even on a stroll. In essence, Opeyemi’s ambivert (haha! been searching for an opportunity to use the word to describe myself) nature makes him a social chameleon who is able to quickly adapt to different settings.

Opeyemi recognizes the need to constantly develop oneself in order to stay afloat in a competitive and ever-evolving market like crypto. For this reason, he is always in learning mode, ready to pick up the slightest lesson from every situation. Opeyemi is efficient and likes to deliver all that is required of him in time - he believes that “whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.” Hence, you will always find him striving to be better.

Ultimately, Opeyemi is a good writer and an even better person who is trying to shed light on an exciting world phenomenon - cryptocurrency. He goes to bed every day with a smile of satisfaction on his face, knowing that he has done his bit of the holy assignment - spreading the crypto gospel to the rest of the world.
