Spot Bitcoin ETFs Extend Negative Streak, Ethereum ETFs Back in Red
Sep 5, 2024 1:02 AM

The landscape around the spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US has changed dramatically since a few weeks ago when investors showed significant demand.

Current data shows six consecutive days of consistent outflows, with September 3 being the worst in terms of flows since May 1.

Spot Bitcoin ETFs Deep in Red

US investors behavior regarding the spot Bitcoin ETFs is frequently impacted by the state of the local economy. For example, they allocated more than $200 million on two occasions, August 23 and 26, after the promise of Fed Chair Jerome Powell that the time for the central bank to cut the interest rates had arrived.

Those inflows were the culmination of an extended streak of eight consecutive days. Thats where everything changed as investors started to pull out funds. As reported during the weekend, the rest of the August 26-30 week saw only outflows, with more than $277 million leaving the financial vehicles.

September 2 was a national holiday in the States. However, the negative sentiment returned on the next day, which actually became the worst since May 1, with $287.8 million withdrawn from the largest ETFs.

September 4 was also in the red, albeit in a less painful manner $37.2 million was taken out.

BTCs price has been affected within this timeframe as well, dropping from over $65,000 to about $57,000 now. It even dumped to $55,600 yesterday.

Ethereum ETFs Outflows Return

Unlike the spot Bitcoin ETFs, the Ethereum counterparts have failed to attract any substantial demand from investors. The numbers are usually in the low double digits, with red dominating the charts.

The past two trading days were quite painful as well, with $47.4 million withdrawn on September 3 and $37.5 million taken out on September 4.

Grayscales ETHE leads this adverse trend. While this is expected, whats particularly worrying is the lack of interest in the remaining ETFs. Even BlackRocks ETHA, which was the first to surpass $1 billion in AUM, has not seen any inflows since August 28 and August 20 before that.

Only Fidelitys FETH saw minor inflows of $4.9 million on Wednesday, unlike the rest, where trading activity was minimal or non-existent.
