Ethereum ETF Sees $580M Outflows Ahead of Powell Speech

Ethereum ETF Sees $580M Outflows Ahead of Powell Speech

The post Ethereum ETF Sees $580M Outflows Ahead of Powell Speech appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. US-traded spot Ethereum (ETH) exchange-traded funds (ETF) experienced massive outflows totaling $578 million over three trading days from Aug. 18 to Aug. 21. However, macroeconomic uncertainty rather than declining institutional interest is likely the driver for the outflows. As a result, ETH’s price has fundamentals to keep its upward movement, though it is still vulnerable to macroeconomic developments. Macro Backdrop Drives Risk-Off Sentiment Farside Investors data showed that Aug. 19 recorded the second-largest single-day outflows in Ethereum ETF history at $429.6 million. The outflow was exceeded only by the $465.1 million exodus recorded on Aug. 4 during a broader market correction. The outflows coincide with heightened market volatility as investors position defensively ahead of Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s Jackson Hole speech scheduled for Aug. 22. Analysts noted that communication uncertainty from the Fed typically triggers profit-taking as traders de-risk positions ahead of major policy announcements. Economic data adds to the uncertainty building. Producer Price Index figures exceeded forecasts, with July producer prices jumping 0.9% versus the anticipated 0.2% increase. The hotter-than-expected inflation data raised questions about the persistence of price pressures and the Fed’s ability to implement aggressive rate cuts. Further, President Donald Trump’s unveiling of modified “reciprocal” tariffs ranging between 10% and 41% on dozens of countries added additional uncertainty. According to FOMC minutes published on Aug. 20, the Fed is still concerned that the tariffs’ shock might be stronger than the current effects. Institutional Interest Signals Robustness Despite the substantial outflows, Ethereum ETF have maintained net positive flows of approximately $2.1 billion throughout August. Further, the ETFs broke the outflow streak with $287.6 million of positive flows in Aug. 21. The positive flows relate to a backdrop of continued strong institutional demand for Ethereum exposure.

Bitcoin’s Reign Will Continue, Popular American Entrepreneur Says

Bitcoin’s Reign Will Continue, Popular American Entrepreneur Says

According to Anthony Pompliano, Bitcoin is still the clear leader in the crypto market and it’s not likely to give up that spot soon. He made the point during an appearance on CNBC’s Squawk Box, where he pushed back against the old “blockchain, not Bitcoin” line that was popular in the 2016-2017 cycle. Related Reading: Panic Or Profit? Analyst Says XRP Below $3 Is A ‘Massive Blessing’ He said Bitcoin has proven itself, and he framed the debate as one about what people want to own, not just what the technology can do. Bitcoin Maintains Market Lead Pompliano argued that the idea blockchain alone would outshine Bitcoin has been tested and found wanting. Based on reports from his CNBC interview, he stressed that while blockchain has useful cases, Bitcoin holds a unique position as an asset that many want to own outright. He called the split in investor goals a key reason markets feel more volatile, and he pointed to the years after 2016-2017 as evidence that Bitcoin kept growing in influence. Investors Are Choosing Different Paths Some people want yield; others want the asset itself. Pompliano noted both groups exist and that this split matters. He said some big holders are now converting coins into BTC ETFs. He explained that institutional-style custody and the rules around ETFs make those funds attractive to traditional investors who can’t buy or hold Bitcoin directly. ETF Demand Tied To Security And Access According to Pompliano, ETF funds are held by professional custodians, which makes them harder to steal than coins in personal wallets. That, he said, explains why large holders might move into ETFs even if they own Bitcoin already. But he didn’t predict that everyone would follow that path. He described the move as sensible for some, while also saying a core of the Bitcoin community will keep pushing for self-custody. Custody Choices Are Changing The custody conversation is shifting from purely ideological to practical. Pompliano compared Bitcoin to the S&P 500 in the sense that it’s becoming a mainstream store of value for some investors. Still, many will keep the “not your keys, not your coins” stance and hold private keys themselves, he added, keeping a cultural split alive inside the market. Related Reading: Bitcoin’s Next Stop For 2025? $175,000, According To SOL Strategies Boss Pompliano warned that splitting capital across ETFs, infrastructure bets, and direct holdings can add to price swings. He said the current market offers enormous opportunity for different strategies, but that same diversity of bets can push volatility higher. That’s a simple trade-off, he suggested: more ways to invest can mean more movement in price. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView

China Considers Yuan-Pegged Stablecoins to Boost Global Influence

China Considers Yuan-Pegged Stablecoins to Boost Global Influence

The post China Considers Yuan-Pegged Stablecoins to Boost Global Influence appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.   Key highlights: China may allow yuan-pegged stablecoins to boost its global currency influence. Conflux has already launched a CNH-backed stablecoin for cross-border payments. Policy shift challenges dollar dominance amid growing global stablecoin adoption. China is reportedly considering allowing stablecoins pegged to the yuan for the first time, signaling a major reversal in a country that previously banned cryptocurrency trading. The move is aimed at boosting the yuan’s influence globally and modernizing cross-border payments. 180-Degree policy shift in digital assets If approved, this plan would represent a radical shift in Beijing’s approach to digital assets. In 2021, China banned cryptocurrency trading and mining over concerns about financial system stability. Now, authorities are exploring ways to internationalize the yuan while maintaining strict regulatory oversight. The State Council, China’s cabinet, will consider and possibly approve a roadmap for expanding the yuan’s use globally later this month. The document will set targets for international use, outline responsibilities for regulators, and define risk prevention measures. First steps taken by Chinese blockchain projects Even as the strategy is being discussed, the Chinese blockchain platform Conflux has already launched a stablecoin backed by the offshore yuan (CNH).  This initiative targets cross-border payments, particularly under the One Belt, One Road program, which could transform payments between Asian, African, and European countries. China has long sought to elevate the yuan to a global reserve currency on par with the U.S. dollar or euro, but tight currency controls and trade surpluses have limited progress.  According to SWIFT, the yuan’s share of global payments fell to 2.89% in May, while the dollar holds 48.46%. RMB’s share as a global payment’s currency.

Risk-hungry traders look to Ethereum, altcoins as Bitcoin’s volatility bottoms out

Bitcoin is finally acting its age. After years of wild price moves that made it the symbol of chaos in finance, its behavior is now tame enough to bore the average trader.

Bitcoin volatility has dropped to 38%, approaching blue-chip stocks such as Goldman Sachs. Bitwise executives believe that Ethereum is entering a risk-averse period.

PANews reported on August 22nd, according to Bloomberg, that with the influx of buy-and-hold investors on Wall Street, Bitcoin's annualized volatility has fallen from nearly 200% over a decade ago to 38%, comparable to blue-chip stocks like Starbucks or Goldman Sachs. Meanwhile, Ethereum ETF trading volume has matched or even surpassed Bitcoin's on some trading days this month. Since August, Ethereum ETFs have attracted $2.5 billion in inflows, while Bitcoin products have seen a net outflow of $1.3 billion. Arthur Azizov of B2 Ventures, a venture capital firm specializing in early-stage investments, predicts that Ethereum prices will consolidate between $3,900 and $4,400. Bradley Duke, head of Bitwise Europe, said that Ethereum is entering a risk-averse market, with some funds preparing for a pullback and not ruling out the possibility of a short squeeze. Market attention is currently focused on Federal Reserve Chairman Powell's speech at the Jackson Hole Symposium.
