Eric Balchunas, senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg, has some good news for market participants who are disappointed by the seemingly underwhelming performance of Ethereum ETFs. 

According to Balchunas, these products are seeing “very healthy” inflows and trading volumes. 

Tough days ahead 

Despite this optimism, Balchunas has warned that the next few days could be “tough” for these products due to outflows from Grayscale’s ETHE. 

On Thursday, these much-anticipated products logged $152.4 million worth of outflows. Grayscale’s ETHE bled a whopping $346 on its first day.

Will this be over soon? 

Still, Balchunas is convinced that the intensity of these unlocks is going to die down sooner compared to GBTC. 

As reported by U.Today, the Ethereum price has been severely affected by underwhelming post-debut outflows, as well as the most recent stock market drop.
