Fidelity’s FETH and Franklin’s EZET were the only ETFs to record inflows, at $6 million and $1.1 million, respectively. These were significantly less than ETHE’s outflows and could not offset the overall loss. The remaining Ether ETFs saw no net flow on that day.
The past week was even harsher for ETH ETFs, with substantial withdrawals of $169.4 million over the last five trading days.
Per <a href="https://sosovalue.com/assets/etf/us-eth-spot" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">data </a>from SoSoValue, the total daily trading volume for these spot Ethereum ETFs was $438.61 million on Friday, Aug. 2. That’s much higher than the $331.11 million recorded on Thursday, Aug. 1, but still lower than $472.5 million on Wednesday, July 31.
The joint outflows from spot BTC and ETH ETFs on Aug. 2 marked a flip from the scenario on Aug. 1, when <a href="https://crypto.news/bitcoin-and-ethereum-etfs-see-first-joint-positive-inflows-since-ether-etf-launch/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">both ETF products saw joint positive inflows for the first time</a> since the launch of the nine spot Ether ETFs on July 23.
Meanwhile, the latest outflows from these investment products coincided with a 4.5% drop in the global cryptocurrency market cap over the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">data </a>from CoinGecko.
Bitcoin’s price decreased by 4.4% and is now priced at $62,000. Meanwhile, Ethereum saw a larger decline of 5% and is trading at approximately $3,000.
