? As #Ethereum sits just above $3,200, the ratio between $ETH's top 10 non-exchange and top 10 exchange addresses has grown to its largest gap of all time. This climb continues pointing to a greater proportion being kept away from exchange sell-off risk. https://t.co/Bal76cJd2X pic.twitter.com/OvWJ7bMMs4

Investors are bullish on Ethereum despite the price decline.

This trend manifesting for Ethereum shows that investors are getting ready to hold their assets off exchanges for a long time.
Despite the recent price drop, which is market-wide but has affected Ethereum. The asset currently trades at $3,174 after dropping from a recent high of $3,525, but it has not deterred investors from holding the asset in anticipation of better days.
Apart from solid holding demand, data from the Kraken exchange also reveals that Ethereum monthly active users have increased by 22.5%. As a result, users increased from 7.2 million in January to 8.8 million. According to Kraken, the data shows increasing optimism in Ethereum after several months of the bearish signal.
