Ethereum ETFs have hit a record outflow streak, signaling a significant decline in investor interest amid a drying investment landscape.
Spot Ethereum ETFs Experience Record-Breaking Outflows
The longest stretch of uninterrupted outflows since its introduction on July 23 has been five days, as spot Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) headquartered in the US have reported.
Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE) outflows have surpassed $2.5 billion as of Aug. 21, greatly outstripping the investments made by the nine spot Ether ETFs that were recently approved.
Daily Outflows Persist for ETHE, August 12th as an Exception
According to Farside Investors data, ETHE has been consistently reporting daily outflows with the exception of August 12th, when the Grayscale fund did not disclose any net flows.
In the five days between August 15 and 21, spot Ether ETFs lost $92.2 million, the biggest streak of any asset class.
It was around this time that Grayscale's ETHE declared a loss of $158.6 million. Bitwise Ethereum ETF (ETHW), the Fidelity Ethereum Fund (FETH), and BlackRock's iShares Ethereum Trust ETF (ETHA) all received similar inflows, which mitigated the impact.
Cointelegraph shares that, in contrast, $231.9 million has been maintained as positive flows in the Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust (ETH) since its debut, and there have been no known outflows.
On August 20th, ETHA garnered $1 billion in net inflows, making it the first spot Ether ETF to do so. At this time, there has been a net outflow of $458.5 million from spot Ether ETFs.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs Attract $17.5 Billion Since January
Conversely, $17.5 billion has been deposited into spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US since their introduction in January 2024. Even though the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust lost $19.6 billion, spot BTC ETFs still have a positive balance sheet.
Along with that, positive flows have been maintained by the spot Bitcoin ETFs for eight of the past ten days. The aggregate inflows into the Bitcoin ETFs reached $88 million on August 20, the highest level seen in two weeks, according to statistics from Farside Investors.
First place went to BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust, which has received $55.4 million in new capital since its introduction in January, bringing the total net inflow to $20.5 billion.
