US spot Ethereum ETFs experienced their largest monthly outflows since launching in July 2024. Ethereum (ETH) is trading at ₹2,17,747 ($2,290.08). This is an original Token Times brief based on reporting by BeInCrypto, with live market data added, as of Mon, 02 Nov 2026 06:00:01 UTC.

Why it matters

The significant outflows from Ethereum ETFs signal potential waning institutional interest and could impact ETH's price trajectory. This development comes amid a broader market downturn for Ethereum.

Key takeaways
  • Ethereum ETFs lost $1.61B in October, their worst month since launch.
  • Outflows ended a 3-month streak of inflows.
  • ETH dropped 16.1% in October, its worst performance since 2016.
  • Current ETH price: $2290.9, up 1.05% in 24 hours.

US spot Ethereum ETFs experienced their largest monthly outflows since their launch in July 2024, with $1.61 billion withdrawn in October. This information comes from BeInCrypto, which is currently the only outlet reporting on this development.

The outflows marked a significant shift, ending a three-month period of inflows. This change in investor sentiment aligns with Ethereum's poor performance in October, which saw a 16.1% drop in price.

According to CryptoRank, this was Ethereum's weakest October performance since 2016. The decline in ETF inflows and the drop in ETH's price suggest a potential loss of institutional confidence in the asset.

The broader crypto market remains relatively stable, with a total market cap of $2.7 trillion. Bitcoin has seen a modest 0.82% increase in the last 24 hours, while the overall market sentiment, as measured by the Fear & Greed index, remains in 'Fear' territory at 37.

Ethereum is currently trading at $2290.9, up 1.05% in the last 24 hours but down 0.37% over the past week. The market cap of Ethereum stands at $279.91 billion.
