Despite rising activity from large investors, Uniswap (UNI) has so far failed to follow whale accumulation with a price recovery. Even though supply is being absorbed, the market structure remains bearish and UNI continues to struggle.
One major whale recently re-entered the market after panic-selling 798,734 UNI for $4.26 million. Just days later, the same entity took advantage of lower prices and bought back 757,684 UNI for $3.66 million, signaling a shift in sentiment—but not yet a trend reversal.

UNI Slides After Failed Breakout Attempt
After attempting a breakout roughly a week ago, Uniswap faced strong resistance and dropped to $5.8. Since then, UNI has been trading inside a descending channel, with the broader crypto market sell-off intensifying the downside pressure.
At the time of writing, UNI was trading at $4.92, marking a daily decline of 1.29% and extending its weekly downtrend. This price weakness prompted investors—particularly whales—to step in and buy the dip.

Whales Take Profits, Then Re-Accumulate
Once UNI reached $5.8, large holders began taking profits. This pushed market momentum briefly to a peak of 6.2, but the increased selling volume quickly weakened bullish momentum and prevented further upside.
The whale momentum index then fell from 6.2 to 5.6, resulting in a negative price impact of at least 4.46%. This decline showed that once whales exited, remaining buyers lacked the strength to push prices higher.

During this phase, on-chain tracking identified a specific whale. As the market turned lower, the investor sold 798,734 UNI for $4.26 million at a price of $5.33 per token. After this sale, UNI continued falling to a local low of $4.5, before staging a modest bounce.
As prices kept declining, the same whale re-entered the market, purchasing 757,684 UNI for $3.66 million at an average price of $4.83 per token. This move suggests confidence in a potential recovery, though not confirmation of a trend reversal.

Demand Strengthens, but Price Still Lags
Alongside the whale’s return, demand metrics shifted sharply. Buyer strength surged to 96, while seller dominance dropped to 3.5. By comparison, sellers dominated the previous day with a reading of 67, highlighting a dramatic swing toward buyers.
Another key signal came from spot market flows. UNI’s spot netflow remained negative for four consecutive days, indicating increased spot demand. At the time of writing, netflow stood at –$290,000, a major improvement from –$3.13 million the previous day.

Is This Enough to Reverse the Trend?
Despite these bullish demand signals, Uniswap has yet to show sustainable upside momentum. The RSI rose from 32 to 35, but remains deep in bearish territory. UNI is also trading below its short-term moving averages (19 MA and 21 MA), confirming continued downside pressure.
If bearish conditions persist, UNI could revisit the $4.5 level. However, if whale demand holds and buyer strength continues to increase, the token could reclaim its moving averages and target key resistance at $5.8.

Final Thoughts
A Uniswap whale repurchased 757,684 UNI for $3.66 million after panic-selling 798,734 UNI for $4.26 million just days earlier. While this behavior points to renewed confidence among large holders, UNI remains under strong bearish pressure, and current demand has not yet been sufficient to pull the token out of its decline.
