In a recent interview with Wu Blockchain, Tron CEO Justin Sun revealed he has sold 80-90% of his 
Ethereum holdings. Sun cited Ethereum's 'fragile double top' pattern as the primary reason for his decision, suggesting he believes the cryptocurrency's technical outlook is weak.
The Tron founder also mentioned that he has reallocated the funds into a selection of US crypto stocks, indicating a strategic shift towards opportunities in the US market. This move comes amid what Sun perceives as a sluggish performance by Ethereum.
Despite Sun's significant divestment, Ethereum's price has remained relatively stable, currently trading at $2267.59 with a 0.89% gain in the last 24 hours. However, the cryptocurrency is down 3.18% over the past week.
The broader crypto market remains flat, with a total market cap of $2.69 trillion. 
Bitcoin is up 0.74% in the last 24 hours, while the Fear & Greed index stands at 34, indicating a 'Fear' sentiment in the market.
Sun's decision to divest from Ethereum and invest in US crypto stocks could be seen as a reflection of his confidence in the US market and his concerns about Ethereum's near-term prospects. Investors will be watching for any further shifts in market sentiment and the performance of US crypto stocks.
