Too little corroboration in the last 3 days to call a trend (3 articles). Watching for it to gain traction.

"The filing attributes $827.7 million of the loss to an unrealized decline in the value of ETH and another $267.8 million to impairments of LsETH and weETH, tokens representing liquid staking and restaking positions."
"This year, ETHA's share price has fallen by more than 37% to roughly $14.15. The poor price performance can be attributed to Ethereum's broader price struggles. Data from CryptoSlate shows that the digital asset's value has declined from over $3,200 at the beginning of the year to around $1,870 as of press time."
"ETH closed three consecutive red quarters for the first time in its trading history, losing roughly 28% in Q4 2025, 29% in Q1 2026, and 25% in Q2 2026, as CoinGlass data confirmed."
