5 $ETH ETF INFLOW PREDICTIONS ๐ฎ |
The Spot $ETH ETFs are finally live and the Milk Man is more excited than a seagull at a beach picnic! ๐️ |
|
Behind this layer of excitement, everyone's probably wondering: How TF are these ETFs going to affect my $ETH bags?? ๐ฐ |
To answer that, let's dive into the $ETH inflow projections from some of the top institutions in crypto: Galaxy Digital, Bitwise, JP Morgan and more. |
These predictions can be confusing, but the Milk Man is here to break it down like he does on the dance floor ๐บ |
Here's the TL;DR: (All % comparisons are based on $BTC ETF flows in their first 5 months of trading) |
Bull Case: Inflows of $5B in 2024 (30% of $BTC ETFs) Base Case: Inflows of $3B in 2024 (20% of $BTC ETFs) Bear Case: Inflows of $1.5B in 2024 (10% of $BTC ETFs)
|
Keep reading for more details on each prediction (and how it could impact the price of $ETH ๐) ⬇️ |
1/ Bull case |
Alex Thorn, head of research at Galaxy Digital, predicts that there will be an inflow of $5B by the end of 2024. |
|
Bitwise has a similar EOY prediction but believes 2025 will be even bigger for the $ETH ETFs. |
|
The bustling prediction is packed into a beautiful episode of The Milk Road Show with Matt Hougan (Bitwise CEO), listen as he unpacks more about these ETFs ๐ง |
2 Key Reasons why Galaxy Digital and Bitwise are so bullish: |
Expect institutions to hold both $BTC and $ETH in order to diversify their crypto exposure Grayscale outflows are expected to be lower than they were for Bitcoin
|
2/ Base case |
JP Morgan believes that the $ETH ETFs will snag $3B in 2024 (20% of the inflows that $BTC ETFs saw in their first 5 months of trading) |
Other notable names like the "Bloomberg Boys", Eric and James, share JP Morgan's perspective ๐ฌ |
|
3/ Bear case |
Andrew Kang, co-founder of Mechanism Capital and prominent figure on crypto twitter, leads the glass half empty argument |
He predicts $1.5B of inflows in 2024 (10% of the inflows that $BTC ETFs saw in their first 5 months of trading). |
3 Key Reasons behind his prediction: |
Institutions prefer $BTC over $ETH The buzz around Spot $BTC ETFs was much larger than Spot $ETH ETFs $ETH ETFs are less attractive without staking
|
Impact on $ETH? |
$ETH's price will be more sensitive to ETF flows than $BTC, since 40% of its supply is locked in staking and smart contracts. ๐ |
|
What happens to $ETH in the next 5 month is really anyone's guess but one thing is certain: Institutional flow into $ETH will only benefit the token in the long-term. ๐ช
Could this be the catalyst that sends $ETH's price to the moon? Spoiler: We think so. ๐ |
AND we tell you why on today's episode of The Milk Road Show!
We break down: |
Why is $ETH called "Ultrasound Money"? ๐๐ฆ Why Layer-2 solutions are a game-changer for Ethereum and how they're fueling growth. ๐ Lark Davis' personal $ETH price predictions and portfolio allocation strategies. ๐

COTD: WEEKLY CRYPTO FUND FLOWS ๐ |
Get your HODL hats on, Roaders! $1.44B 2 weeks ago, and then last week's inflows of $1.35B were like running back to back marathons. |
That's the 7th largest inflow on record and a clear sign that the crypto fund train is still chugging along! ๐ |
Let's dig into it ๐ |
|
Here are the flows: |
Bitcoin ($BTC): The crypto king continues to reign supreme with a whopping $1.27B in inflows. After a quiet June, Bitcoin is shining bright. |
Ethereum ($ETH): Ethereum saw inflows of $45M last week, overtaking Solana for second place in inflows year-to-date at $103M ($SOL at $71M). |
The buzz around the spot-based ETF is giving Ethereum some serious momentum. |
Regional rundown: |
The US: Leading the pack with $1.3B in inflows. Switzerland: Poured in $66M. Brazil: Experienced minor outflows of $5.2M. Hong Kong: Also saw minor outflows totaling $1.9M.
|
The hefty inflows into Bitcoin and Ethereum show that the global appetite for digital assets keeps churning! |
Quick Hits: |
Litecoin ($LTC): Inflows of $2.2M last week. Blockchain Equities: Still struggling with $8.5M in outflows, despite ETFs outperforming world equity indices.
|
Investors are positioning themselves for the next big wave in crypto, which might just be spurred by institutions with the $ETH ETF approval. |
