After a few weeks of slow demand, the inflows into spot Ethereum ETF have shot up again amid the global liquidity boost following the Fed rate cuts. After a poor start to the week, inflows into spot Ether ETF have resumed again. Amid the liquidity pump in the market, institutions are once again looking at the Ethereum investment product. As a result, the Ethereum price continues to hold firm despite the ETH whale sell-offs over the past week.
Spot Ethereum ETF Inflows Surge Past $85 Million
This week, the total inflows into spot Ether ETFs surged past $85 million, after several weeks of outflows. This comes as the Ethereum price shows strength surging to $2,700 and eying the next run to $3,000.
On Friday, September 27, the inflows into spot Ethereum ETF stood at $58 million with Fidelity FETH seeing the most inflows at $42.5 million. BlackRock’s ETHA came second with more than $11.5 million while Grayscale ETHE saw $10.7 million in outflows, per the data from Farside Investors.
Earlier this week, the Ether ETFs saw $80 million in outflows driving by massive outflows from Grayscale’s ETHE. However, the day after, BlackRock took the charge resuming inflows back into the investment products.
The recent inflows come when amid the constant sell-offs by Ethereum whale over the past week.

While the Ethereum ETF see inflows, the latest on-chain data shows that institutions have been offloading their ETH holdings in the latest price rally. As per the data from LookonChain, two major institutions offloaded Ethereum (ETH).
