The Bitwise Ethereum ETF, ETHW, recorded outflows of $6,181,650 on February 13, 2026, trimming its assets under management to $212.36 million. The latest redemption represents roughly 2.9% of the fund’s AUM, signaling a notable shift in investor positioning after months of mounting pressure on Ethereum prices.
The related asset, ETH-USD, is currently trading at $1,967.40 after a bruising three-month slide of about 29.9%. Its 1-day technical signal stands at Strong Sell, underscoring the bearish sentiment that appears to be driving ETF investors to pare exposure and lock in remaining gains or limit further downside.
The scale of the outflow, while not catastrophic for ETHW, suggests that institutional and sophisticated retail holders are reassessing their risk tolerance in a more volatile macro backdrop. If Ethereum’s price slide persists and technicals remain weak, ETF flows could continue to act as a barometer of waning risk appetite across the broader digital-asset complex.
