The iShares Ethereum Trust ETF, ETHA, recorded a sizable single-day outflow of $107.65 million on January 9, 2026, as investors pulled cash from one of the market’s flagship Ethereum funds. With assets under management now standing at approximately $10.96 billion, the latest redemption wave accounts for about 0.98% of ETHA’s total AUM.
The move marks a notable bout of profit-taking or risk reduction after a volatile stretch for Ethereum-linked products. While the outflow is meaningful in dollar terms, it is not yet large enough to signal a wholesale investor exodus from ETHA, which remains one of the largest institutionally focused vehicles offering exposure to Ether.
The related asset, ETH-USD, is currently trading around $3,111.12. Over the past three months, Ether has dropped about 25.50%, underscoring the depth of the recent correction from prior highs. Despite that drawdown, short-term indicators are turning more constructive, with the 1-day technical signal flashing Buy, suggesting traders see scope for a near-term rebound or at least stabilization.
The juxtaposition of sizeable ETF outflows with an improving short-term technical backdrop highlights a classic tug-of-war: longer-horizon or more risk-averse holders trimming exposure even as tactical traders tiptoe back in. How ETHA’s flows evolve in the coming days may offer an early read on whether institutional sentiment toward Ethereum is merely cooling—or entering a deeper risk-off phase.
