Ethereum Social Sentiment Surges to 2.05 as Spot ETFs Draw Net Inflows

Ethereum has emerged as a clear crowd favorite, with its bullish-to-bearish social sentiment ratio reaching 2.05, placing it in fear of missing out territory. The optimism comes as U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs broke a 10-day outflow streak by capturing $24.84 million in net inflows on October 13, led by Grayscale and Fidelity. Meanwhile, sentiment for Bitcoin and XRP remains fearful, registering ratios of 0.82 and 0.92, respectively. The divergence developed as Bitcoin retreated toward $81,000 following rejections near $87,000, while XRP dropped over 9% in a week below $1.40.
