Institutional Investors Take Advantage of Ethereum’s Decline, ETF Inflows Rise
Significant Inflows into Ethereum ETFs:
Following a 23% 24-hour drop in Ethereum ETFs in the US saw inflows of $49 million on August 5.
This represents the second-highest day of inflows for the ETFs since their launch, highlighting strong institutional interest despite recent market volatility.
The surge in inflows follows a period of weak inflows, suggesting that institutional investors have taken advantage of the opportunity to buy Ethereum at lower prices.
ETF expert James Seyfart confirmed this trend on August 6, noting that investors in these funds may have taken advantage of the significant drop in Ethereum’s price to increase their investments.
For his part, Matt Hogan, CTO, noted that the majority of investor interest was focused on Ethereum, although there was some interest in buying Bitcoin as well.
BlackRock’s ETHA Fund Leads Inflows: Among Ethereum ETFs, BlackRock’s ETHA Fund stood out with inflows of $47.09 million, bringing its total assets to $760 million.
