Overview
Ethereum’s return to the $2,000 area is unfolding alongside a notable reset in derivatives positioning. Multiple reports point to sharply lower ETH futures open interest and stressed funding dynamics, while spot ETH ETF flows have swung from sizable redemptions to a modest inflow day—leaving traders focused on whether the move above $2,000 is stabilization or a temporary bounce.
