The Invesco Galaxy Ethereum ETF, QETH, saw outflows of $3.77 million on February 18, 2026, a sharp pullback that erased roughly 19.5% of its $19.32 million in assets under management. The single-day move underscores how quickly sentiment can swing in the young spot Ethereum fund space.
The related asset, ETH-USD, is currently trading at $2,011.76, having dropped about 31.7% over the past three months. Despite that drawdown, its 1-day technical signal remains a cautious Hold, suggesting traders are not yet ready to call a bottom or a full-fledged rebound.
The heavy outflows at QETH may reflect investors locking in losses or rotating into perceived safer assets after Ethereum’s steep correction. At the same time, the sizeable share of AUM withdrawn in a single session highlights the liquidity and short-term trading appeal of crypto-linked ETFs, which can amplify swings in both directions.
