Ethereum News Today: "Major Investors Withdraw from Ethereum ETFs While Bitcoin Sees $931M Inflow Boom"
- Ethereum fell below $3,720 as whale activity and exchange outflows signaled shifting crypto sentiment, contrasting Bitcoin's $931M net inflows driven by U.S. inflation optimism. - Ethereum ETFs faced $555M in two-week redemptions, while Bitcoin ETFs gained $446M, highlighting institutional capital's preference for Bitcoin amid macroeconomic uncertainty. - Softer U.S. inflation data and Fed rate cut expectations fueled risk appetite, yet Ethereum struggled to recover as investors awaited key economic data
