The coin fell by 4% by 12:37 PM (UTC) on 27th August and traded at $2,627. At press time, it has fallen further down to $2,578 based on <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/" data-type="link" data-id="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">CoinMarketCap data</a>.

According to Farside Investors data, total net outflows worth $478 million have been recorded on nine US spot Ether ETFs since their launch. This figure is soon to approach the $500 million mark later in this week.

Most of these outflows can be attributed to the Graysale Ethereum Trust ETF which totaled $2.5 billion worth of Ethereum since their trading began on 23rd July. 
Earlier, Ethereum investors were expecting the price to surge noticeably after the launch of the ETFs. However, based on the total trading volume of Ethereum ETFs, it looks like the demand from traditional investors is yet to come.

Even though Ether ETF outflows continue to increase, some analysts are of the view that Ethereum’s price may be bottomed out already. A market analyst, CryptoBullet created an <a href="https://twitter.com/CryptoBullet1/status/1825132041752428717/" data-type="link" data-id="https://twitter.com/CryptoBullet1/status/1825132041752428717/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">X post</a> earlier, mentioning that if ETH remains above $2,500, the bottom might be in.

As of now, $2,700 is a major resistance for Ethereum’s chart. The upcoming Nvidia earning report on 28th August is expected to have some effect on the price action of Ethereum.
