U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs have attracted $495.75 million in net inflows so far this month, a flow trend that is helping keep ETH above $2,300 and sharpening focus on the next key resistance zone.
Traders are now closely watching the $2,400-$2,500 range. A sustained move through $2,500 and a successful retest as support would strengthen the case for a broader multi-week advance in Ethereum and potentially support the wider altcoin market.
As institutional money continues to favor Ethereum exposure, some investors are also moving into projects built around blockchain infrastructure rather than price exposure alone. Among them is LiquidChain (LIQUID), which is marketing a Layer 3 approach to improve liquidity and execution across major chains.
April has brought steady net buying across U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs, with multiple sessions recording inflows in the tens of millions of dollars. Recent weekly figures have pushed the monthly total close to $500 million, with BlackRock and Fidelity products leading on several trading days.
The ETF bid has coincided with firmer on-chain activity and renewed whale accumulation, reinforcing the view that Ethereum’s underlying demand remains intact even during periods of short-term consolidation.
Analyst Daan Crypto has identified the $2,400- $2,500 range as a decisive technical zone. If ETH can clear that band on strong volume and hold the weekly close, market participants see scope for a faster move toward fresh highs.

LiquidChain Pitches Layer 3 Liquidity Across Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana
LiquidChain (LIQUID) presents itself as a Layer 3 execution environment that combines Bitcoin liquidity, Ethereum DeFi infrastructure, and Solana-style speed within a single chain. According to the project, the architecture uses a Solana-class virtual machine, unified liquidity pools supported by verifiable asset representations, and cross-chain proofs and messaging for atomic, trust-minimized settlement without the typical wrapping or bridging friction.
The stated aim is to let developers deploy applications once and reach users across Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana-linked ecosystems simultaneously. LiquidChain says that the model can improve liquidity depth, execution speed, and capital efficiency for use cases including dApps, memecoins, and prediction markets.

The project’s presale has raised more than $694,000, with the token currently priced at $0.01452. LiquidChain is also advertising immediate staking access with a 1,563% APY while stating that most token allocations are directed toward development and ecosystem growth.
With the current presale stage scheduled to close tomorrow, the project is positioning the next pricing step as the near-term catalyst for prospective buyers.
How the LIQUID Presale Works
Users can buy LIQUID through the official LiquidChain website by connecting a Web3 wallet such as Best Wallet or MetaMask, selecting a payment method, and completing the purchase.
Supported payment options include ETH, SOL, BNB, USDT, USDC, BTC, and several other major cryptocurrencies. Bank card purchases are also available.
Buyers who stake during the presale are currently offered a 1,563% APY, with rewards to be distributed once claiming opens.
Best Wallet also supports access for mobile users. The app is available on the Apple App Store and Google Play, where users can find LIQUID in the “Upcoming Tokens” tab and manage purchases and holdings in one place.
