Ether Slips Below $2,600 as Prediction Markets Diverge on Its Path

  • —ETH traded around $2,550–2,580, down roughly 4.7–5.5% on the day
  • —U.S. spot ether ETFs saw about $405–408 million in outflows over six sessions
  • —Ether long liquidations reached roughly $155–165 million
  • —Polymarket: 49% odds of $3,000 before year-end, 37% for $2,250, 7% for $1,500
Why it matters: The split between prediction markets highlights uncertainty: persistent ETF outflows weigh on ETH, while some traders still expect a return to $3,000.
