Bitcoin ETFs just broke a brutal $500M losing streak, but the entire recovery is an illusion propped up by BlackRock<\/h3>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/i>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n<\/div>\n\nBlackRock's iShares Staked Ethereum Trust ETF, or ETHB, moved the other way with a $15.4 million inflow. FETH, ETHW and Grayscale's mini Ether trust lost a combined $6.4 million, while every other displayed Ether product was flat. Without ETHB, the group would have ended the day in outflow.<\/p>\n
One fund, not a rotation signal<\/h2>\n
The five trading sessions from July 24 through July 30 offer little evidence of a persistent shift toward Ether. Bitcoin funds lost a combined $36.2 million, while the Ethereum products lost $69.7 million.<\/p>\n
The wider 10-session window, from July 20 through July 31, was more favorable for Ethereum. Those funds gained $113.8 million as Bitcoin funds lost $27.6 million.<\/p>\n

\n\n\n \n \n Related Reading<\/span>\n Ethereum is flashing a $478 million buy signal but top traders still expect it to fail<\/h3>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/i>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\nBlackRock reported<\/a> about $546.1 million in net assets on July 31, when its NAV fell 2.85% to $24.04 despite the inflow. Its trailing 30-day staking rewards rate was 1.67%, a backward-looking figure rather than a guaranteed yield.<\/p>\nAn iShares filing<\/a> said that, as of April 15, the aggregate staking fee was 10% of gross staking consideration. Staking consideration net of that fee is intended for distribution monthly, but no less frequently than quarterly; the intended schedule does not guarantee a payment.<\/p>\n\n\n \n \n Related Reading<\/span>\n BlackRock's new product just made Ethereum income impossible to ignore<\/h3>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/i>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n<\/div>\n\nThe broader market was also lower. CryptoSlate's August 1 pages show Bitcoin<\/a> near $62,958, down 2.09% over 24 hours, and Ethereum<\/a> at $1,868, down 1.09%. The pages were refreshed at different times after the ETF session, so the figures provide context rather than evidence that the flows caused either move.<\/p>\nA stronger rotation case would require Ethereum inflows to persist across sessions and broaden beyond ETHB. July 31 instead shows a product-specific contrast: broad losses among the displayed Bitcoin funds and concentrated demand for one staked Ethereum wrapper.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

An iShares filing<\/a> said that, as of April 15, the aggregate staking fee was 10% of gross staking consideration. Staking consideration net of that fee is intended for distribution monthly, but no less frequently than quarterly; the intended schedule does not guarantee a payment.<\/p>\n\n The broader market was also lower. CryptoSlate's August 1 pages show Bitcoin<\/a> near $62,958, down 2.09% over 24 hours, and Ethereum<\/a> at $1,868, down 1.09%. The pages were refreshed at different times after the ETF session, so the figures provide context rather than evidence that the flows caused either move.<\/p>\n A stronger rotation case would require Ethereum inflows to persist across sessions and broaden beyond ETHB. July 31 instead shows a product-specific contrast: broad losses among the displayed Bitcoin funds and concentrated demand for one staked Ethereum wrapper.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ETHB alone kept Ether funds positive, leaving the $9 million gain too concentrated to confirm broad rotation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1264,"featured_media":551587,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[78665,77968,77923],"tags":[81073,77954,76769,76128,72190],"post_folder":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nBlackRock's new product just made Ethereum income impossible to ignore<\/h3>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/i>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n
