Summary
Investors pulled $116.05 million from BlackRock's iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) on October 7, 2026, according to the source article, making it the largest single-day redemption recorded in the US Ethereum ETF market. The outflow was part of a broader pattern: US spot Ethereum ETFs collectively lost $160.9 million that day, following a $201.9 million outflow on October 6.
Capital moved in the opposite direction in Bitcoin ETFs, which attracted roughly $119 million in net inflows over the same period. The divergence suggests that investors are reallocating between the two largest crypto ETF categories rather than reducing exposure to digital assets altogether. The article attributes the shift to changing macroeconomic conditions and warns that the pattern could increase volatility in Ethereum futures if it persists.
Broader market conditions were mixed. Pluang's October 8, 2026 market snapshot, timed at 11:41 WIB, showed 11 of 50 major cryptocurrencies rising and 38 falling. SXP (Solar) fell 46.27% to Rp37, while BAL (Balancer) rose 11.14% to Rp16,297 and CRV (Curve DAO Token) gained 9.56% to Rp6,959. Pluang's own order flow for CRV stood at 52% sell and 48% buy.
The source article is brief and does not provide AUM totals, fund-level performance figures, or institutional commentary, so the magnitude of the ETHA outflow relative to the fund's total assets cannot be assessed from this material.
