Matrixport: Ethereum ETF Inflows Slow Down, Bitmine Becomes Main Source of Recent Buying
ChainCatcher news, Matrixport released an analysis today stating that inflows into Ethereum ETF have recently slowed significantly, dropping from strong net inflows of $5.2 billion and $4.3 billion in July and August respectively, to only $300 million in September and just $600 million in October.
Latest data shows that recent buying activity is concentrated, mainly contributed by Bitmine. Analysts pointed out that if there is a lack of new institutional capital entering the market, the price of ETH may continue to consolidate, or even experience a deeper correction. It is worth noting that the net asset value of the Bitmine fund is slightly above its issuance level. Although it can continue to issue new shares to absorb incremental funds, this will dilute the equity of existing holders, raising questions about its sustainability. The next Ethereum upgrade, Fusaka, is scheduled for December 3, 2025.

Deutsche Bank: After the three major central banks hiked rates simultaneously, the market may once again underestimate the terminal interest rate
Deutsche Bank points out that as central banks in the US, Europe, and Japan are tightening policy simultaneously, the market may still be underpricing the eventual terminal rates. With oil prices remaining high, inflation may spill over into core inflation and wages. Moreover, financial conditions have not tightened in tandem, which could weaken the effect of rate hikes. Citing the experience of 2022, Deutsche Bank notes that the market then expected a total of around 200 basis points of Fed rate hikes in the first year, but the final figure exceeded 400 basis points, illustrating that the market often underestimates the terminal rate.
