Sentiment toward Ethereum (ETH) and XRP has sharply deteriorated in September 2026, with bearish ratios at their lowest levels in months. ETH shows a ratio of 0.89 bullish comments per bearish comment, while XRP has dropped to 0.67, meaning pessimistic comments now dominate. Despite this gloomy climate, buying whales have accumulated 60,000 ETH, worth approximately $162 million, over the past week. Arthur Hayes forecasts ETH will reach $10,000 by year-end, versus a current price near $2,700. For XRP, massive token outflows from exchanges have been recorded, with over 320 million tokens withdrawn, a movement similar to August last year which was followed by a 42% price increase.
