The VanEck Ethereum ETF, ETHV, saw notable redemptions on January 09, 2026, with latest fund flows of -$2,265,520. The move shaved roughly 1.40% off its assets under management, which now stand at $161,984,680, signaling a bout of profit-taking or waning confidence after a choppy quarter for Ethereum-linked products.
The related asset, ETH-USD, is trading around $3,100.97, having fallen approximately 17.81% over the past three months. That medium-term slide is echoed in its short-term technical picture, where the 1-day signal currently flashes Sell, underscoring the cautious tone that appears to be driving ETF redemptions.
While the outflow represents a small slice of ETHV’s overall AUM, it adds to evidence that some investors are stepping back from Ethereum exposure amid heightened volatility and lingering uncertainty over the next leg of the crypto cycle. The combination of negative momentum and bearish technicals may keep inflows muted in the near term, unless a clear catalyst emerges to reverse sentiment in the broader Ethereum market.
