The 2x Ether ETF, traded under the ticker ETHU, drew fresh capital inflows of $1,513,677 on January 27, 2026, a modest but notable vote of confidence in a bruised leveraged Ether trade. With assets under management now standing at $1,469,173,383, the latest flow represents roughly 0.10% of the fund’s AUM—a small proportional move that nonetheless signals renewed appetite for high-octane crypto exposure.
The related asset, ETH-USD, is currently trading at $2,937.58, down about 25.0% over the past three months—a reminder that investors stepping into ETHU are doing so after a significant drawdown rather than at euphoric highs. Despite the recent inflow into the leveraged ETF, short-term signals remain cautious, with the one-day technical outlook flashing a bearish cue: Sell.
Against this backdrop, the latest inflow may reflect tactical positioning by sophisticated traders rather than broad-based retail enthusiasm. Leveraged products like ETHU amplify both gains and losses, so even a relatively small flow can hint at rising conviction that Ether could be nearing a tradable bottom—or at least a period of heightened volatility that these investors hope to exploit.
