šØ ETH got $1B inflow yesterday⦠but price didnāt move? Read this before you FOMO šØ
Yesterday ETH ETFs saw record inflows ā over $640M into BlackRockās ETHA and ~$1B across all funds. Normally, that kind of spot demand should blast ETH into new highs.
But hereās what happened: price stalled.
Why? Likely heavy distribution behind the scenes.
This is how the game works:
1ļøā£ Weekend perps pump the price (thin liquidity, easy squeeze).
2ļøā£ Monday ETF inflows give ābullish confirmationā ā everyone thinks institutions are loading.
3ļøā£ Whales quietly sell into those ETF bids = exit liquidity.
4ļøā£ Price holds temporarily, but the fuel is gone⦠and alts keep bleeding.
ā ļø Lesson: Big inflow ā guaranteed pump. In late-cycle markets, even $1B can just be whales cashing out. Watch funding rates, on-chain flows, and ETH/BTC ratio before chasing.
Stay sharp, trade safe.
