After several weeks of consistent inflows, U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs experienced their largest-ever single-day outflow on Monday, August 4, with a combined $465.1 million exiting the market, according to SoSoValue data.
This sharp reversal follows a period of strong investor enthusiasm. Inflows peaked at $2.2 billion during the second week of July, followed by $1.9 billion the next week, and a modest $154.3 million in the final week of the month—suggesting that momentum had already begun to taper off.
The bulk of Monday’s outflows came from BlackRock’s ETHA, which led the decline with $374.97 million withdrawn.
Other major funds including Fidelity’s FETH (–$55.11M) and Grayscale’s ETHE (–$6.98M), as well as the Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust (ETH) (–$28M), also posted notable outflows.
Of the top nine ETH ETFs tracked, eight ended the day with net redemptions, while only Invesco’s QETH posted a small +0.12% premium and saw no outflow.
