Ethereum ETFs faced $175M in total outflows, led by BlackRock’s ETHA.
All nine Ethereum funds reported zero net inflows.
Bitcoin ETFs saw minor outflows, with IBIT showing resilience.

On October 10, Ethereum spot ETFs experienced a significant market setback, recording a total net outflow of $175 million. All nine ETH-focused ETFs registered no net inflows for the day, highlighting investor caution amid ongoing market uncertainty.

Leading the downturn was BlackRock’s Ethereum Trust (ETHA), which alone saw $80.19 million pulled from the fund. Other ETFs followed suit, but none were able to attract any fresh capital. This mass outflow raises questions about investor confidence in Ethereum-based products, especially as the broader crypto market continues to show signs of volatility.

This steep decline in inflows could also be linked to the delayed decision from the SEC on Ethereum ETF approvals, as well as concerns around regulatory clarity in the U.S. crypto space.

Bitcoin ETFs Remain Resilient

In contrast to Ethereum, Bitcoin spot ETFs showed relative stability. The total outflow across Bitcoin ETFs was just $4.5 million—minor compared to Ethereum’s numbers.

Interestingly, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) managed to attract net inflows, making it the only fund across both asset classes to do so on October 10. This suggests that investor confidence in Bitcoin remains intact, likely due to its stronger institutional backing and more mature market presence.

Bitcoin’s resilience may also stem from the growing anticipation of the next Bitcoin halving and increasing adoption by traditional financial institutions.

What This Means for Investors

The stark difference in fund flows between Ethereum and Bitcoin ETFs paints a clear picture of current market sentiment. Ethereum appears to be facing a confidence gap, possibly driven by its more complex ecosystem and uncertain regulatory standing. Meanwhile, Bitcoin continues to serve as the primary entry point for institutional crypto exposure.

While these flows can shift quickly with market developments, they offer a telling snapshot of investor behavior in the current crypto landscape.

No Need to Worry About the Cooling Down of AI Data Center Construction? The US Import Boom Is Unlikely to Subside in the Short Term, Real Impact May Come in 2029

It takes an average of 4.8 years from finalizing investment to starting construction of a data center project, and an additional 2.6 years from construction start to becoming operational. Servers usually cannot be installed until after the building structure and racks are completed. For trade partners such as Taiwan (China), South Korea, and Mexico who rely on US data center supply chain demand, the inertia in construction timelines provides at least a one- to two-year buffer for future exports.

Federal Reserve Major Debate: When Should the Tenure of “Number Three” Williams End?

The main point of contention is whether Williams should step down in June 2028, upon completing a full 10-year term, or in June 2027, when he reaches the mandatory retirement age of 65. Analysts point out that the Federal Reserve Board holds ultimate discretion; if he leaves early, Fed Chair Waller would be able to assert greater control over the appointment to this critical position. However, forcing Williams to shorten his term could easily be interpreted as political manipulation. Williams himself is expected to serve until June 2028.
