Meanwhile, there was a net outflow of $38 million from the ETH ETF last week. However, the price of Ether surged significantly from $1,800 to $2,600, with a single-day rise of as much as 25%. The ETH/BTC exchange rate has risen significantly, currently at 0.024; the market share of Ether has also rebounded from about 7% to 9%.
