As of September 6, the Ethereum (ETH) ETF landscape is showing signs of stress, reflecting broader market uncertainty. Recent data reveals a notable decline in daily net inflows, with Ethereum ETFs collectively experiencing a negative total net inflow of -$5.98 million. This downturn contributes to an alarming cumulative net outflow of -$568.30 million, indicating a period of heightened volatility and investor caution.
Trading Volume And Asset Valuation
Despite the turbulent conditions, Ethereum ETFs remain active in trading. According to SoSovalue, the total trading volume for ETH ETFs reached $210.43 million, underscoring a market grappling with both opportunities and challenges. The total net assets of these ETFs now stand at $6.09 billion, representing 2.33% of Ethereum’s overall market capitalization.
Among the prominent players, the Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE) has been hit hard. ETHE faced a daily redemption of -$10.70 million, adding to its cumulative net outflow of -$2.67 billion. Consequently, ETHE’s total net assets have dropped to $3.91 billion, with its market price plummeting by 6.02% to $18.75. ETHE now holds a 1.50% share of Ethereum’s market capitalization and operates with a relatively high fee structure of 2.50%.
Divergent Performance Among ETFs
In contrast to ETHE’s struggles, the Ethereum Strategy ETF (ETHA) recorded a daily net inflow of $4.72 million, bringing its cumulative net inflow to $1.02 billion. Although ETHA’s market price decreased by 6.08% to $16.83, it managed to boost its net assets to $752.32 million. ETHA’s share of the Ethereum market remains modest at 0.29%, accompanied by a significantly lower fee of 0.25%.
Fidelity’s Ethereum ETF (FETH) remained stable in terms of net inflows, with no daily changes reported. It maintains net assets of $290.28 million but saw a 6.01% drop in market price to $22.22. FETH’s cumulative net inflow remains positive at $397.81 million.
