Summary :
The prices of many crypto tokens, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, experienced a bearish week, with only three of the top 50 tokens by market cap gaining value. The value of U.S.-based spot Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) hit new multi-month lows. On Friday, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw nearly $170 million worth of outflows, bringing the total cumulative value of the 12 funds on the market to $48.24 billion. This is the first time in a month that the value has fallen below $50 billion and the lowest since May 1. The outflows continue a streak of eight consecutive trading days of outflows for spot Bitcoin funds. Spot Ethereum ETFs also saw a decline in total asset value, reaching its lowest value since the first day of trading. However, two funds saw changes in net asset value on Friday, with Grayscale's ETHE experiencing outflows and Blackrock's ETHA seeing inflows. The Ethereum ETFs have logged an outflow of about $91 million so far in September.
