ETH Price Could Dip Below $1,500 as Ethereum ETFs Suffer Record Outflows
Ethereum ETFs recorded consistent outflows, with institutional investors retreating and lowering ETH’s price. Technical indicators suggest further declines may push ETH below $1,500.
Ethereum ETFs have closed yet another week in the red, recording net outflows amid continued investor hesitation.
Notably, there has been no single week of net inflows since the end of February, highlighting waning institutional interest in ETH-related products.
Ethereum ETFs Face Steady Outflows
Ethereum-backed ETFs have recorded their seventh consecutive week of net outflows, highlighting sustained institutional hesitance toward the asset.
This week alone, net outflows from spot ETH ETFs totaled $82.47 million, marking a 39% surge from the $49 million recorded in outflows the previous week.

With the steady decline in institutional presence in the ETH market, the selling pressure on the coin has soared.
Over the past week, ETH’s price has declined by 11%. The steady outflows from the funds backed by the coin suggest that the downward momentum may persist, increasing the likelihood of a price drop below the $1,500 mark.
On the price chart, technical indicators remain bearish, confirming the mounting pressure from the selling side of the market. For example, at press time, readings from ETH’s Directional Movement Index (DMI) show its positive directional index (+DI) resting below the negative directional index (-DI).

The DMI indicator measures the strength of an asset’s price trend. It consists of two lines: the +DI, which represents upward price movement, and the -DI, which represents downward price movement.
As with ETH, when the +DI rests below the -DI, the market is in a bearish trend, with downward price movement dominating the market sentiment.
Ethereum’s Price Could Drop Below $1,500
The lack of institutional capital could delay any significant rebound in ETH price, further dampening short-term prospects for recovery. If demand leans further, ETH could break out of its narrow range and follow a downward trend.
The altcoin could fall below $1,500 in this scenario to reach $1,395.

However, if ETH witnesses a positive shift in sentiment and demand spikes, its price could climb to $2,114.

Anthropic will launch what is set to be the largest IPO in history next week, aiming to take this title from SpaceX. However, unlike Elon Musk’s conglomerate, large investors will have greater influence over its IPO pricing amid the ongoing turbulence in the artificial intelligence (AI) market.
Both are Tech Giant IPOs, Why is Anthropic's Listing Valuation More Conservative Than SpaceX?
Unlike SpaceX's fixed pricing model, Anthropic adopts the traditional roadshow approach, granting more pricing power to institutional investors. Due to factors such as the Nasdaq downturn, Federal Reserve rate hikes, and AI oversupply, the market environment is under pressure, and previous expectations for a $2 trillion valuation have faded. Analysts point out that the difference in pricing strategies between the two companies essentially reflects the depth of their relationships with the Wall Street capital markets.
