Ethereum attracts $2.7 million capital from institutional investors
While Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, scooped up the biggest chunk of inflows from institutional investors, Ethereum funds amassed $2.7 million. After months of outflow from crypto funds, Ethereum funds have garnered the attention of institutional clients.
CoinShares fund flows report by asset
Outflows this week were from funds that are short Bitcoin and Ethereum competitors like Solana. The interest from institutional clients and the corresponding capital inflow fuel a bullish thesis for Ethereum price recovery.
At the time of writing, ETH is exchanging hands at $1,975.56 on Binance.
Ethereum price eyes $2,000 target
Ethereum price has been in an upward trend since mid-June 2023. The altcoin climbed to $1,975.56 at the time of writing, wiping out losses from May. Ethereum price is currently above all three 10, 20 and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) at $1900.63, $1,843.32, and $1,748.66, respectively.
ETH/USD one-day price chart
If Ethereum price continues its uptrend, it is likely to hit the $2,000 target in the short term. A decisive break past $2,000 would confirm the bullish sentiment among ETH holders.
A decline below the 10-day EMA at $1,900.63 could invalidate the bullish thesis, with next support at the $1,840 zone.
