Since the introduction of the first spot Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on July 23, 2024, the liquidity of Ether on US exchanges has experienced a dramatic decline of up to 40%.

Unexpected Market Response to Ether ETFs

Traders and analysts initially anticipated that the introduction of Ether ETFs would enhance market liquidity and stabilize prices. However, the reality has been quite different. The average market depth of 5% for ETH pairs has decreased to approximately $14 million. Offshore exchanges have observed a similar reduction, with liquidity falling to around $10 million.

Ether Liquidity Down

Following the launch of nine ETFs in July, Ether’s liquidity on US markets plummeted by 20%, with a 19% decline on offshore exchanges. This drop in liquidity is concerning, as it indicates increased sensitivity to large orders. With a shallower market depth, even minor trades can lead to significant price changes.

Jacob Joseph, a research analyst at CCData, noted that while liquidity remains better than it was at the start of the year, it has declined by almost 45% since its peak in June. This drop is largely attributed to poor market conditions and seasonal effects, as trading activity typically decreases during the summer months.

Market Dynamics and ETF Performance

The introduction of Ether ETFs was expected to increase liquidity, similar to the effect seen with Bitcoin ETFs earlier this year. However, the Ether market’s response has been less favorable.

Since their introduction, Ether ETFs have experienced over $500 million in cumulative outflows, contributing to a general decline in liquidity and increased market volatility. For instance, Grayscale’s ETHE ETF saw an outflow of $10.7 million, while BlackRock’s ETHA ETF had an inflow of only $4.7 million.

These mixed results suggest that the Ether market is still struggling, with investors hesitant to commit capital during uncertain times.

Implications for Traders and Investors

The drop in liquidity poses challenges for both traders and investors. In low-liquidity environments, slippage is higher, and the cost of executing trades increases. Institutional investors, in particular, prefer stable markets with good liquidity. If these large players reduce their operations, it could create a vicious cycle, leading to even lower liquidity and further price declines.

Currently, Ether is trading at approximately $2,258, down over 4% in the past 24 hours. The broader cryptocurrency market is also under pressure, with major altcoins like Solana and Ripple posting losses between 2% to 4%.

Looking ahead, market participants may find that the anticipated benefits of ETF introductions have not materialized for Ether. Potential interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve could shift market attention to how these changes will impact liquidity and trading activity in the coming months.
