After nearly two weeks of steady institutional demand, U.S. spot Ether ETFs ended their winning streak with outflows on Friday.
The products saw $59.3 million pulled, halting an eight-day run that had funneled roughly $3.7 billion into the funds.
The timing coincided with Ether’s pullback after coming within 2% of its 2021 record high of $4,878. At the time of writing, ETH was trading just under $4,450, cooling off from a month-long rally that left it nearly 30% higher over 30 days.
Since launching in mid-2024, spot Ether ETFs have accumulated more than $12.6 billion in net inflows, making them a central indicator for analysts tracking institutional sentiment.
Some market observers argue that consistent inflows are critical for Ethereum to push beyond its previous peak, with forecasts ranging as high as $10,000 if the momentum persists.
Others point out that social media chatter around ETH remains weaker than Bitcoin, a dynamic that historically signals Ethereum could briefly outperform its larger rival.
At the same time, nearly $3.9 billion worth of staked Ether sits in the withdrawal queue, suggesting profit-taking may accelerate if prices climb further.
Still, analysts note that heavy accumulation from corporate treasuries and ETFs has helped balance selling pressure — a trend traders will be watching closely as ETH attempts another run toward uncharted highs.
