The iShares Ethereum Trust ETF, ETHA, recorded a sharp outflow of $102.24 million on December 19, 2025, trimming risk exposure in one of the market’s flagship ether products. The redemption amounts to roughly 1.04% of the fund’s latest assets under management, which stand at $9.86 billion, marking a meaningful single-day pullback in investor capital.
The move comes against a backdrop of renewed volatility in Ethereum itself. The related asset, ETH-USD, is currently trading around $2,981.73, having shed about 33.29% over the past three months. Technically, the short-term picture remains fragile, with a 1-day signal flashing Sell, suggesting that momentum traders and systematic funds may still be leaning to the downside.
While a 1% outflow relative to AUM does not amount to a full-scale exodus, it does signal growing caution among institutional and sophisticated retail holders who had used ETHA as a regulated gateway into Ethereum. The latest flows highlight how quickly sentiment can swing in crypto-linked ETFs when underlying prices trend lower and technical indicators turn negative, even after a strong longer-term adoption story.
