A period of accumulation accelerates when an asset’s value increases rapidly. Investors are forced to withdraw funds from the exchanges as they are not willing to sell their holdings. When the supply of Ethereum began to fall on exchanges from September 2020, ETH prices increased by 1000%. The majority of Ethereum owners are holding their coins at a profit of 68%.
If on-chain data shows a rapid rise in exchange flows, then the accumulation period is considered over. The price of the underlying assets usually drops dramatically after the accumulation period is over.
