i've been trying to use ETF flow data as a signal and honestly i'm about to give up lol.
week ending august 14: $390M net outflow from BTC ETFs. so i'm thinking ok institutions are pulling back, maybe reduce exposure. then the very next week: $1.9B net inflow, biggest of 2026. BlackRock IBIT alone did $1.33B. ETH ETFs added another $697M on top of that.
that's a $2.3B swing in sentiment in five trading days. five days! how is anyone supposed to position around that?
honestly i've just stopped trying to front-run the flows. sitting on my spot bags on bydfi and watching from the sidelines. every time i try to trade around ETF data i end up on the wrong side of the reversal.
for those of you who do track ETF flows — are you actually trading off them or just using them as confirmation after the move already happened?

I trade Forex, so I use ETH since there’s no defined “open” there

Run away from memecoins and put your money on BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, BNB and HYPE. Always remember to DCA. Please this is not a financial advise do your due diligence. DYOR

Is this and issuance discussion actually VBs concave/convex article? Fees and issuance do matter "to some degree", they make ETH a better SoV. Remember the \~50x multiplier on volume to MC. Absolutely they're not everything, but they help "to some extent", even if a little. I would rather adopt a SoV if it's inflation was lower. ETH is a mixture of things, make it better in every way even if that way isn't the most important.

Bigger picture is... bigger numbers behind the percentages. 90% of the ETH paid to L2 being dumped.
My prediction is that Robinhood wont require holding any ETH to pay gas. They will let you use stables and they'll have a gas paying account for you, they'll put the ETH, you put the stables. Simpler for users, more economically viable for the L2, more ETH selling.
With this model, it's like ETH burns in their hands. More economic activity only benefits the L2 right now.

Last cycle, SOL did a 30x from bottom while paying up to 10% compounding APY along the way. Nothing came close while everyone complained about SOL or "no 🐂 for alts". There was. It happened on Solana.
BTC, HYPE, SOL, HOOD, ETH. This bear is so easy even the noobs have hope. Winners couldn't be more clear.

\>Even the creator of eth doesn’t like holders
That makes no sense, more importantly you must be stupid AF to hear this, believe it, and repeat it. If ETH held no value what would be the point of it. Why would vitalik hold 240k ETH?

I seee and are you using RTH or ETH VP?

Money didn't flow from BTC to ETH to SOL last cycle. It stayed with BTC and alts didn't do shit.
So...

For the thousandth fucking time, fees don't matter. Ethereum is not a company and ETH is a commodity.
As Ethereum becomes ubiquitous, ETH becomes the de facto SOV or capital asset AND the primary financial asset.

I know Bitcoin is obviously the safer/older play and the ETF inflows have been pretty crazy. But at the same time, Solana feels like much newer technology with a lot more room to grow if we actually get another big bull market.
I’m curious how everyone is looking at this considering the ETF flows, institutional money coming into BTC, and the fact that Solana seems to be gaining more adoption.
Do you think money will continue flowing from BTC into ETH and then SOL like previous cycles, or could SOL actually keep up/outperform this time?
If you had to pick one today and hold it for the next few years, would you go BTC or SOL? And why?

🌍 Macro
U.S. private payrolls rose just 38K in August, below expectations, easing pressure on Treasury yields and helping U.S. equities break a three-day losing streak. However, Brent crude climbed to $95.63 as U.S.-Iran tensions and Strait of Hormuz risks kept energy inflation elevated. BTC briefly dipped below $76.5K before recovering toward $77K, remaining weaker than equities as markets balance softer employment against persistent inflation risks.

🧠 Market Take
BTC remains stuck between $76K–$80K as macro signals pull in opposite directions. Softer employment is helping cap Treasury yields, but elevated oil prices and geopolitical risks continue to limit risk appetite. ETH remains weaker, hovering around $2.4K.
Stock-linked Memes are gaining traction, but the JINQIAN/FAMI reversal exposed a major risk: borrowing real stock tickers and RWA narratives does not mean an asset is actually backed by or redeemable for the underlying equity. Traders should distinguish official tokenized stocks from purely speculative Meme tokens.
Key levels:
* Resistance: $78K–$79K, then $80K
* Support: $76K–$76.5K, then $75K
* Trend: Range-bound / slightly bearish
A sustained move above $78K–$79K would ease short-term weakness, while reclaiming $80K would provide stronger trend confirmation.

⚡ Quick Take
**BTC is holding $77K**, but high oil prices and geopolitical risk are keeping upside constrained despite softer U.S. employment. Watch $76K–$76.5K on the downside and **$78K–$80K for a meaningful recovery signal**.

Yeah, this sub isn’t the audience for OPs take. Most people have been holding a long time. This pump has been a nice change but only traders would be truly thrilled with it.
A cool off was expected but you are correct. ETH has a ways to go. No celebrating until 5k

Robinhood isn’t necessarily bearish for Ethereum, but it does highlight a concern around ETH value accrual. If an L2 can generate $1–2M in fees while paying only ~1% back to Ethereum, most of the economic value is being captured at the L2 level.
There’s also an interesting dynamic where the L2 can potentially collect fees in ETH and accumulate it from users, while only needing a relatively small amount to pay for Ethereum settlement. If fees increasingly become denominated in stables, that ETH requirement could be even smaller.
Do we know which plans does Robinhood have for their excess ETH? Selling like Coinbase?

You have to look at the broader context man.
BTC 2021 ATH: +/- $68.5k
BTC Current Price: $77.32k
ETH 2021 ATH: +/- $4.85k
ETH Current Price: $2.38k
BNB 2021 ATH: +/- $699
BNB Current Price: $689
ETH should be trading at close to $5k right now if it held as well as BTC and BNB. Instead it's more than 50% below its 2021 ATH. It should not be retracing at all. It should be repricing. The current valuation is ridiculous, or the market just does not value ETH as we think it should.

Exactly. Ethereum isn't dead and never will be. ETH is.

The highest price Ethereum (ETH) has ever reached is $4,953.73, on August 24, 2025.
$8,000 is the next top, not a dollar more. More than likely it’ll break $5,000 and dance between that benchmark and $5,500.

Others said you shouldn’t hold crypto but I will be one of those that say otherwise. Crypto, especially BTC and ETH are good to hold imo. They are risky for now but the risks will diminish as time goes on and the market adapts. It’s good to have something slightly risky but also high reward in your portfolio

You're just blind about the role ETH as choosed to become In the ecosystem. Not decentralized, as who owns the more ETH is the one that get rewarded. And miners are more and more centralized. ETH is just now a programmable money. Nothing else nothing more. Manipulable just as the whole trillions of USD are manipulated. It's still better to hold ETH than cash. Yet.. it is still money. It is still meant to flow. Not to be hold like a hard asset like BTC or Gold. Once you realize that. You trade eth against wtv you want to or need to . Might it be $ for current convenience.. or the BTC/ETH chart . Trying to increase your net worth in BTC.. but since both are crypto and correlation is strong.. not the best and easiest for most to trade one against the other.. do it cash.. then buy more BTC with what is left of your overflow, if you are actually a profitable trader.. which I doubt.. then , just swap the whole of your ETH to BTC in the next top of bull market.. or even DCA from eth to BTC directly..
Unless you are a great trader that is.. it's worth investing in your understanding of.. wtv is useful In that matter.. I, got the knowledge that I needed.. you do you.. nothing here is a financial advice. Just lead onto where to look to feel less loss on that mess of a currency war..
