In late September 2025, Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs experienced a combined outflow of over $1.7 billion amid increased volatility and declining prices, marking a reversal from previous inflows. Despite short-term withdrawals, institutional interest remains, with potential market momentum expected from upcoming altcoin ETF approvals in October, which could influence future investor behavior.
Ethereum has surged past $3,100 amidst growing anticipation for potential spot Ethereum ETFs and the upcoming Dencun upgrade scheduled for March 12, which aims to enhance its speed and compatibility. The rally may also be influenced by the broader excitement in the crypto market, including the upcoming Bitcoin halvening in April. Analysts are closely monitoring key psychological levels such as $3,500 and $4,000 as Ethereum continues its upward trajectory, while also observing the potential for Solana to establish support levels following its recent consolidation.
