Ethereum ETFs Record Mixed Performance with Net Outflows

In contrast to Bitcoin ETFs, Ethereum-focused ETFs experienced a slight decline, with a net outflow of 146 ETH, valued at approximately $385,000. Grayscale Ethereum Trust, the largest holder with 1,717,725 ETH worth $4.55 billion, saw an outflow of 117 ETH, equating to $310,500. This outflow reflects ongoing market adjustments amid fluctuating investor sentiment.

The iShares (Blackrock) Ethereum Trust, however, reported strong inflows, adding 6,060 ETH over the past week, indicating renewed interest in Ethereum-focused investments. The Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust also showed positive movement with an inflow of 2,186 ETH, suggesting pockets of resilience within the broader market trends.

The overall net inflows in Bitcoin ETFs suggest robust demand, with inflows outpacing outflows across several major funds. Ethereum ETFs, while experiencing some outflows, still display areas of strength, particularly among newer and smaller funds. The contrasting trends between Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs highlight the nuanced dynamics within the digital asset investment landscape, driven by investor sentiment and market conditions.
