Exchange-traded funds that hold ether, the native token of the Ethereum network, directly and trade on stock exchanges.
US spot Bitcoin ETFs shed a net $484.9 million on Oct. 7, their largest one-day outflow since June, Farside Investors data show. At about $82,700, Bitcoin now trades inside the band where Glassnode maps its nearest liquidation cluster, so the next move depends on how leverage is stacked there.
Reality
Ether fell below $2,600 on Oct. 7 after six straight days of outflows from U.S. spot ether ETFs. Read by their rules, its three prediction markets point to a year-end close to Wednesday's opening price, with wide odds on either side.
Reality
Bitcoin fell about $3,540 on Oct. 7 after reports of tanker attacks near the Strait of Hormuz, $2,000 of it in 30 minutes, as ETH slid below $2,600. Liquidated leveraged longs set the pace, so whether prices hold once that forced selling clears will show how much of the move was about oil.
Reality
US spot Ether ETFs recorded net outflows for five straight sessions through October 5, totaling $205.88 million, as ETH held near $2,711.

Reality
US spot bitcoin ETFs lost a net $89.9 million on Monday as $159.8 million left ARKB and Fidelity's FBTC while BlackRock's IBIT took in $69.85 million. One session that followed about $293 million of inflows is thin evidence that buyers are settling on a single fund.
Reality
Bitcoin's spot funds gave back $201.9 million on Friday, four-fifths of it from two sponsors, while ether's kept taking money into a book sitting barely 7% above what its buyers have paid in. That is a thin cushion for a 10-day streak.
