Total value traded fell to $1.57 billion on December 24 from $5.93 billion on December 17. The sustained outflow period has drained assets as Bitcoin price failed to maintain momentum above $90,000.

December 22 provided temporary relief with $84.59 million in Ethereum ETF inflows before outflows resumed. Total net assets for Ethereum products stood at $17.86 billion on December 24, down from $20.31 billion on December 11.

Cumulative total net inflow across Ethereum ETFs held at $12.38 billion. Bitcoin’s failure to break above $90,000 and hold gains has triggered profit-taking and position liquidation.
