Bitfinex: $197M Ethereum ETF inflow is arbitrage, not new demand

  • Inflows into U.S. Ethereum ETFs totaled $197 million for the week
  • Bitfinex: funds are going into spot-futures arbitrage via CME
  • Analysts see no directional demand for ETH in this
Why it matters: ETH ETF inflows can be misleading: a significant portion is arbitrage, not real demand for the asset.
