Finally, we have the Ethereum ETFs live and trading in the U.S. after a much-anticipated debut due to the interferences of our beloved SEC. But things are a little worrisome for one particular entity offering the latest Investment Asset. Within the last hour, Grayscale has transferred 110,867 Ethereum to Coinbase Prime. According to Arkham Intelligence, the ETH is worth over $358 million. Grayscale has not been doing well with ETH ETFs like Bitcoin ETFs.

This difference between the ETH amount poured into Coinbase and received back shows a total outflow of nearly 135,662 $ETH. In terms of value, this figure comes down to $470.8 million.
