BlackRock (a huge investment company) pulled out about $627 million from their Ethereum ETF this December. Overall, Ethereum ETFs have seen around $800-900 million leaving this month.
But here's why it's probably not a big red flag:
.It's the end of the year, and big investors often do something called "tax loss harvesting".
.Basically, if Ethereum's price is lower than when they bought it, they sell some to claim a "loss" on taxes.
.This helps reduce taxes on their other big wins (like stocks or Bitcoin). It's a smart money move, not because they hate Ethereum forever.
.These ETFs are still super new (launched in 2025), and they've brought in over $10 billion in total money from investors since starting.
.That's a ton of interest from big institutions!
This kind of selling happens every December in markets – it's seasonal, like holiday cleanup.
Ethereum is still strong long-term with all its tech upgrades and real-world use. Short-term dips like this often lead to buys later. Hold steady if you're in it for the big picture!
