In the past two days, traditional market concerns about the impact of the AI investment bubble on technology stocks have caused a collective decline in U.S. stock indexes and put pressure on digital currency prices. In addition, strong U.S. GDP data (recorded 2.8%, expected 2%) and allegations of market manipulation against Bitfinex and Tether have also cast a shadow on bullish sentiment.

These two days have been even more difficult for ETH. Although the inflows from the three giants on the first day of the ETF's listing offset the selling from Grayscale, the selling of ETHE has not slowed down in the past 48 hours, and the inflows from other products have been intercepted, resulting in net outflows of 152 million and 133 million US dollars respectively. ETH once dropped to around 3070, giving up nearly half of the gains after the rebound from the bottom in early July, and rebounded slightly today to around 3250. However, some analysts are optimistic about the eventual addition of the ETH Spot ETF's pledge function, believing that this will enhance the attractiveness of the ETF and make the market rethink and weigh the possibility of short-term risks and potential long-term returns.
