Ethereum ETFs have faced significant outflows due to aggressive market activity and macroeconomic factors, and have underperformed Bitcoin ETFs.





Ethereum (ETH) continues to lag behind Bitcoin (BTC) as exchange-traded funds (ETFs) struggle with significant outflows. Aggressive selling by major market makers such as Jump Trading has exacerbated the situation, causing ETH prices to drop by as much as 40% as of early August, according to Bitfinex Alpha. The ETH/BTC rate has also plummeted to its lowest level in 1,200 days.

Challenges Facing Ethereum ETFs

Despite positive inflows into new Ethereum ETFs like BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust, older products like Grayscale’s Ethereum Trust (ETHE) have seen significant outflows. This imbalance highlights the challenges Ethereum ETFs face in maintaining investor confidence and attracting continued interest.

Bitcoin ETFs Show Resilience

On the other hand, Bitcoin ETFs have shown resilience with continued inflows and more stable price performance. Despite challenges such as oversupply, market confidence in Bitcoin remains strong. Bitcoin continues to follow its historical semi-annual path, and the fourth quarter is expected to be very strong. Historical data suggests that the third quarter may have been the low point or that there may be a final downtrend to find Bitcoin’s bottom.

Macroeconomic impact

July macroeconomic data showed that inflation was moderating as consumer prices rose at a slower pace. The annual inflation rate fell below 3% for the first time in nearly three and a half years, raising expectations that the Federal Reserve may soon cut interest rates. The producer price index (PPI) rose 0.1% in July from 0.2% in June, suggesting that lower production costs are helping to cool overall inflation. However, U.S. retail sales surged in July, posting the largest acceleration since early 2023, reflecting strong consumer spending.

Inequality between sectors

Not all sectors of the economy are doing so well. The U.S. housing market continues to struggle, with single-family home construction hitting a 16-month low in July. Factors such as the impact of Hurricane Beryl, increased supply of new homes, higher mortgage rates, and rising home prices contributed to the decline. Despite the setbacks, consumer sentiment showed signs of improvement, with the University of Michigan’s Consumer Survey showing its first increase in five months, fueled by optimism about the future.

Recent cryptocurrency development

In related crypto news, the US government recently transferred 10,000 BTC, worth about $600 million, seized in the Silk Road case to Coinbase Prime, presumably for safekeeping purposes. The move coincides with the Justice Department’s collaboration with Coinbase Prime to manage large digital assets. The US government wallet currently holds about $12 billion worth of Bitcoin.

On the corporate side, Tether has taken on the tech giants by leveraging its growing profits to invest in AI and tech startups through its new venture arm, Tether Evo. Tether’s profits have soared to $118.5 billion in Tether tokens, allowing the company to diversify beyond its stablecoin, USDt, into cutting-edge areas such as neural implants and AI infrastructure.

Meanwhile, in the UAE, a landmark ruling by the Dubai Court of First Instance has made cryptocurrency payments valid for employment contracts. The ruling represents a significant shift in the UAE’s legal stance on digital currencies, further supporting Dubai’s ambition to solidify its position as a global cryptocurrency hub.
