Why it matters
The reported $506.3 million net outflow over five days marks the largest recent pull‑back, indicating a shift in sentiment that could affect both ETF pricing and underlying ETH demand.
Market read

What to watch
Liquidity constraints in the broader crypto market and upcoming regulatory developments could be driving the withdrawals.
