The ProShares Ether Strategy ETF, EETH, saw investors pull $2.87 million on January 16, 2026, a move that shaved roughly 2.49% off its asset base in a single session. The fund now manages $115.26 million in assets under management (AUM), underscoring how even a mid-single-digit flow as a share of AUM can signal a notable shift in sentiment toward ether-linked products.
The outflow comes as the related asset, ETH-USD, trades around $2,952, having dropped approximately 22.7% over the past three months. The short-term picture is equally strained: its 1-day technical signal flashes a bearish Strong Sell, suggesting momentum traders and systematic strategies may be contributing to both price pressure and ETF redemptions.
While the latest flow represents a relatively modest slice of EETH’s total capital, it adds to a broader narrative of caution in ether markets. Persistent drawdowns, combined with pessimistic technical readings, appear to be nudging some investors to the sidelines or prompting tactical de-risking in futures-based ether products rather than outright capitulation. How quickly flows stabilize will likely depend on whether ether can reverse its recent downtrend and rebuild confidence among both retail allocators and institutional traders.
