Ethereum Price Prediction: ETF Money Is Returning, So Why Is ETH Still Stuck Near $2,500?

U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs recorded about $121 million in net inflows in the latest reported session, their second consecutive positive day. BlackRock's ETHA accounted for roughly $80.5 million of that total.

Yet ETH is still struggling to turn that institutional demand into a convincing breakout.

That leaves Ethereum with a simple question: if ETF money is returning, what will it take to push ETH toward $3,000?

Ethereum Has a $2,500–$2,600 Problem

ETH has repeatedly struggled around the mid-$2,500s. Earlier this month, another attempt was rejected around $2,544, while $2,400 has emerged as an important area of support.

The setup is interesting because demand beneath the surface looks stronger than the price suggests.

Spot Ethereum ETFs attracted more than $1 billion in net inflows across a late-August-to-early-September stretch, with positive flows on 10 of 12 trading days.
