After a positive day of net inflows on Monday, Ethereum spot ETFs flipped red on Tuesday. That marks just two out of 10 trading days where Ethereum has recorded inflows. <\/p>\n<p>The outflows, with $643 million last week, reflect waning investor confidence. As noted, broader market uncertainties, including Federal Reserve interest rate policies and reduced risk appetite, have impacted investors.<\/p>\n<p>Lookonchain identified on Dec. 24 that BlackRock had just deposited 9,976 ETH worth about $29.23 million to Coinbase Prime.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"ethereum-price-outlook\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ethereum price outlook<\/h2>\n<p><a class=\"copy-link-to-section\" href=\"#\"><i class=\"fa fa-link\"\/><br \/>\n                <span class=\"tooltip\" data-text=\"Copy link to section\" data-conf=\"Copied!\">Copy link to section<\/span><br \/>\n            <\/a><\/p>\n<p>While ETH could reclaim the $3,000 level and post extended gains in the near term, analysts are suggesting a <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2025\/12\/24\/ethereum-price-prediction-as-eth-forms-alarming-patterns\/\">potential downward flip<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>The $2,700 and $2,350 zones are critical support levels.<\/p>\n<p>Buying by firms like BitMine has helped bolster bulls.
