The Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE), now converted into an ETF, is responsible for most outflows. On Wednesday, July 24, the Grayscale’s ETHE saw net outflows of $386 million taking the two days of outflows to more than $811 million. As a result, the AUM for Grayscale ETHE has now slipped under $8.0 billion. On the other hand, the Grayscale Ethereum mini-Trust saw its inflows surging to $45 million.

ETH Price Under Selling Pressure

The Ethereum price has come under strong selling pressure recently tanking by more than 8% and dropping all the way to $3,150 levels. It turns out that the Ethereum ETF approval has been a sell-the-news event as investors cash out profits in the run-up before the ETF approval.

Market analysts state that similar to Bitcoin, Ethereum could be seeing two weeks of downtrend before resuming the journey to a new all-time high.
