The crypto ETFs are changing the way investors can interact with an asset. The SEC approved 11 Bitcoin Spot ETFs on January 10, this year. On the other hand, the first Ethereum Spot ETF started trading on July 23. Since then, the ETFs have been witnessing a greater amount of inflows, with some cases of outflows as well.
However, between August 30 and September 6, the Bitcoin Spot ETFs continued to bleed. They recorded outflows on a daily basis. During this period, the BTC ETF suffered a cumulative outflow of around $1.2 billion. The largest outflow was on September 3, which was $287.78 million. This trend has led to speculation about the future direction of Bitcoin, fueling discussions around Bitcoin price prediction and investor sentiment.
Ethereum Spot ETFs, on the other hand, witnessed an outflow of around $215 million during the period between August 15 and September 9. Just like BTC, the ETH ETF also recorded the largest outflow amount of $47.40 million on September 3. Why would investors pull out so much funds? Well, that is the fear of September.
For the last decade, September has shown bearish outcomes for the Bitcoin and crypto market. This fear is one of the major reasons for this outflow. Despite these outflows, the crypto ETFs are still outperforming other funds. Out of the 400 new ETFs launched in 2024, the top four positions are acquired by Bitcoin Spot ETFs.
The streak of outflows finally broke on September 9 when BTC Spot ETF received an inflow of $28.72 million, followed by $116.96 million on September 10. The Ethereum ETF was not so lucky and broke its outflow streak on September 10 with a positive net flow of $11.44 million.
Apart from GBTC, BTC (Grayscale), and BTCO (Invesco) funds, all 9 BTC Spot ETFs are trading at a premium. This is similar for Grayscale’s ETH ETFs. ETHE and ETH are being traded at discounts while the other ETH funds are at a premium. Experts believe that the streak of outflow got broken due to the announcement of the first presidential debate between Vice-President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. After this debate, the price of Bitcoin, which was hovering around $57,700, took a 1.85% dive during the debate and a further drop of 1.03% to reach $56,000. The reason behind this fall might be the absence of a crypto topic in the debate, which people were expecting very much.
Well, the good news is that a positive crossover between MA 100 and 200 on an hourly chart acted as support and halted the price from further falling. The crypto ETFs are already performing better than any other funds in the market. This clearly implies that the largest token, also known as digital gold, is actually the value holder. People are looking towards the U.S. elections to see if they will get a pro-crypto President or not.
