Ethereum under pressure: phase of weakness in June is imminent!
Latest crypto news: Ethereum and Bitcoin are falling. Warning signs for June volatility, plus insights into spot and futures trading.
Ethereum under pressure: phase of weakness in June is imminent!
As of May 30, 2025, current market analysis shows that Ethereum (ETH) has fallen by around 1.5 percent in the last 24 hours, while Bitcoin (BTC) has lost around 5 percent in value in the same time. Despite these declines, ETH is showing relative strength compared to BTC and has been able to appreciate slightly. However, there are warning signs of a possible period of weakness in the Ethereum market next June.
Analysis from CryptoQuant suggests overheating in the Ethereum market. Spot volume is showing signs of cooling while futures trading volume is increasing. What is particularly notable is the increase in red dots in the so-called volume bubble map, which indicates overheated market phases. This development is accompanied by decreasing support from organic spot volume and increasing speculative interest.
Futures and spot trading in focus
Ethereum futures open interest has increased to about $19 billion since mid-April. However, this increase is not accompanied by a corresponding increase in spot trading volume, which is considered a warning signal of impending volatility, especially during periods of low volatility. Traders should therefore exercise increased caution as a pullback could potentially be healthy for the market structure.
Spot trading forms a fundamental element in crypto trading. The term refers to the immediate purchase or sale of financial instruments. In contrast, futures trading involves entering into contracts for future purchases or sales at fixed prices. The choice between these two trading types depends on the individual trading strategy and risk tolerance.
Trading strategies and options
Spot trading is ideal for beginners because it involves several easy-to-implement steps, from choosing a trustworthy trading platform to setting up a trading account to conducting market research and placing buy or sell orders. Basic strategies include buy and hold, dollar cost averaging (DCA), and swing trading, among others.
One advantage of spot trading is immediate execution. Traders enjoy full control over their investments, although they cannot use leverage with this method. Risk management still remains highly important, even in a non-leveraged environment. Stop-loss orders are common methods to minimize potential losses.
An interesting development is the AI-supported trading project MIND of Pepe, which is currently in presale. The presale ends in about 36 hours and has already grossed $11 million. The MIND Terminal platform provides real-time signals, risk assessments and trading recommendations, and the tokens can be purchased with ETH, USDT or by bank card. An attractive staking model with 215 percent APY is also offered.
