Ethereum ETFs saw no major activity on Oct. 1. BlackRock’s ETHA ETF posted a modest inflow of $11 million, while Grayscale’s ETHE fund, which had experienced outflows the day before, remained unchanged.

The sharp outflows from Bitcoin ETFs, particularly from Ark and Fidelity, suggest a potential shift in sentiment after the strong inflows of late September. Meanwhile, Ethereum ETFs remained relatively quiet, with minimal movements suggesting a wait-and-see approach among institutional investors.
