U.S. based spot Ethereum (ETH) exchange traded funds (ETFs) posted positive results on Aug. 1, although Grayscale's ETHE saw outflows equal to $78 million for the day.
On Thursday, these ETFs recorded total net inflows of $26.7 million, with BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) leading the way with $89.6 million raised.
Bitwise’s ETHW and Fidelity’s FETH attracted $3.4 million, $11.7 million, respectively.
Unlike the other eight Ethereum spot ETFs, which launched as new funds, ETHE was originally a trust that provided institutional investors with exposure.
Prior to its conversion, ETHE managed $9 billion worth of Etherеum. As of August 1, outflows exceeded 22% ($2.055 billion) of the original fund.
In contrast, the Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust (ETH) reported neither inflows nor outflows.
Overall, the most significant inflows since inception have been recorded by the BlackRock, Bitwise and Fidelity funds, which have attracted $712.8 million, $287.9 million and $291.1 million, respectively, since launch through August 1.
Solana (SOL) is approaching a critical technical level that could trigger a major breakout. According to crypto analyst Ali Martinez, a weekly close above $170 may ignite a new bull run and potentially open the door for a rally toward the $2,000 mark.
Smart contract platforms Ethereum and Solana are shaping the crypto market’s future with big upgrades and shifting strategies.
Arthur Hayes has radically changed his stance on crypto markets. After months of caution, the BitMEX co-founder now believes a powerful altcoin rally is on the horizon.
