And here we go! π The spot ETH ETFs are now live and so far, seemed to have put up impressive figures on their launch day. Cumulatively, the 9 ETFs recorded a cumulative net inflow of close to $107M despite seeing over $484M worth of outflows from Grayscale's Ethereum Trust (ETHE). ETFs from Blackrock and Bitwise recorded the highest inflows of the day, with over $267 and $204M worth of deposits, respectively. Trading volumes for the spot ETFs also crossed the billion-dollar mark, with $1.1B worth of ETFs traded throughout the day. By comparison, this would be 23% of the total trading volume recorded for spot BTC ETFs after they went live earlier in January, according to ETF analyst Eric Balchunas. Despite the perceived increased demand stemming from net inflows, the price of ETH has fallen by 1.3% since the launch of the ETFs, from $3,504 to $3,460 today. Editor's Note: Given that the price of ETH is less than 10% of BTC's price today, getting even a quarter of Bitcoin's first-day ETF volume is a commendable feat. Although we will have to wait and see whether the ETH ETFs can sustain this volume, it's interesting to note that the price action so far is looking fairly similar to January, so another repeat scenario of Bitcoin's runup is not unlikely. |
