The Bitwise Ethereum ETF, ETHW, recorded a sizeable outflow of $2,000,100 on January 30, 2026, as investors reacted to renewed weakness in the underlying crypto market. The redemption, while modest in relative terms, trimmed a fund with roughly $329.4 million in assets under management (AUM), representing about 0.61% of its capital base shifting out in a single day.
The move underscores simmering caution among Ethereum-focused investors after a bruising quarter for the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency. The related asset, ETH-USD, is currently trading at $2,428.98, having shed about 30.6% over the past three months. Short-term technicals echo the nervous tone, with a 1-day signal flashing Sell.
While the latest outflow is far from a run on the fund, it hints that some holders of ETHW are locking in remaining gains or curbing risk as Ethereum struggles to regain momentum. With technical indicators skewed bearish and sentiment fragile, further volatility in flows could emerge if ETH fails to stabilize around current levels.
