Ethereum ETFs See Biggest Outflow in 3 Weeks as Demand Stays Under Pressure
U.S. spot Ether funds logged fresh withdrawals across multiple trading days, and one update put the October 6 outflow at the largest daily pullback in three weeks. During the same period, Bitcoin funds took in money while Ether’s price stayed steady for most of the withdrawal streak. An altcoin tracker also showed a broad stretch of altcoin outperformance versus Bitcoin over 90 days.

What it means
U.S. spot Ether ETF holders are the part of the market that notices this first, because the funds continued to see withdrawals over several sessions. Bitcoin ETF investors also saw a different flow pattern on October 6, when those funds took in $118.9 million while Ether funds posted outflows.
In practice, the period changed fund flows rather than the basic setup of the products: U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs remained open, but the direction of money moving through them was negative for six straight days. Ether’s price held steady for most of that streak, so the flow pattern and the spot price did not move in lockstep.
