Ethereum ETFs (exchange-traded funds) began trading on Tuesday, generating significant volume within the first 2 hours of trading. Interestingly, the Ethereum ETFs ranked among the top 1% regarding<a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/ethereum/bitwise-cio-bullish-on-ethereum-etfs-fueling-surge-to-record-highs-above-5000/" target="_blank" rel="noopener "> ETF volume</a>.&nbsp;

<a href="https://x.com/EricBalchunas/status/1815767604453138738" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">According </a>to Bloomberg ETF expert Eric Balchunas, the ETH ETFs traded $361 million in the first 90 minutes on launch day, surpassing the typical volume seen at the launch of traditional ETFs. Blachunas said: 
<blockquote>
 Here’s where we at after 90 minutes. $361m total. As a group that number would rank them about 15th overall in ETF volume (about what $TLT and $EEM trade), which is Top 1%. But again compared to a normal ETF launch, which rarely see more than $1m on Day One, all of them have cleared that number and then some.

Matthew Sigel, head of digital asset research at asset manager VanEck, <a href="https://x.com/matthew_sigel/status/1815765045264920594" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">highlighted </a>the significance of these figures in the first hours of trading, noting that Ethereum ETFs saw more than 50% of trading volume compared to Bitcoin’s $610 million on day one, indicating strong investor interest in Ethereum. 
However, how these numbers will fare at the close remains to be seen. Bitcoin ETFs saw $4.6 billion in <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/ethereum/derivates-spot-ethereum-etfs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">volume </a>on their first day of trading in January, which may indicate the future performance of these newly approved index funds for the second-largest cryptocurrency on the market.

Crypto analyst Doctor Profit shared a <a href="https://x.com/DrProfitCrypto/status/1815729936180605423" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">report </a>highlighting a potentially massive parabolic move for Ethereum’s price this year in the wake of the expected inflows in the new Ethereum ETF market.&nbsp; 
While some anticipate a correction due to the “sell the news” phenomenon, Doctor Profit argues that the market has already factored in the ETF launch but has yet to consider the significant inflows of USD that will flood into the Ethereum ETFs.&nbsp; 
With Ethereum’s <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/ethereum/cboe-spot-ethereum-etfs-launch/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">market cap</a> being three times smaller than Bitcoin’s, Doctor Profit believes that every dollar invested in ETH is expected to have three times the price impact compared to Bitcoin, positioning Ethereum favorably for substantial price gains. 
Furthermore, the analyst contends that while Ethereum’s Grayscale ETH Fund sell pressure is comparable to the Bitcoin ETF launch, the impact is expected to be less severe.&nbsp; 
Looking ahead, Doctor Profit has set expected <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/us-spot-ethereum-etfs-1-2-billion-monthly/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">price targets</a> for Ethereum in the coming months, including a potential target between $4,500 and $5,500 by Q3 2024, indicating steady but modest growth.&nbsp; 
Moving into Q4 2024 and Q1 2025, the price range is expected to expand from $5,500 to $8,000. However, it is in Q2 2025 that Ethereum is expected to significantly jump, with price targets ranging from $8,000 to $14,000.&nbsp;

At the time of writing, ETH is trading at $3,444, showing sideways movement with no significant change from yesterday’s price, despite the hype surrounding the launch of the ETF market.&nbsp;
