Spot Bitcoin ETFs Achieve Second-Highest Record

According to Bloomberg analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart, the $3.24 billion weekly inflow into Bitcoin ETF created a “intense momentum.” Nate Geraci noted that total net inflows have surpassed $60 billion since launch, making it the second-strongest week to date. 

BlackRock’s IBIT and ETHA products received $10 billion in inflows within just a month, quickly climbing the ranks. Experts highlighted that U.S. government shutdown risks and a weaker dollar drove investors toward safe-haven assets, further boosting demand for Bitcoin ETF. 

Bitcoin hit ATHs last night after the ETFs went wild last week with +$3.3b in a week, $24b for year (also notable $IBIT and $ETHA w $10b for month, rank 3rd and 4th overall) and now $60b lifetime (new high water mark).

Ethereum ETFs Show Strong Success

While Bitcoin ETFs led the spotlight, Ethereum spot ETF also posted $1.3 billion in net inflows during the same week. Impressively, all nine Ethereum ETFs closed in positive territory, reflecting strong investor confidence in Ethereum. Analyst James Seyffart emphasized that Bitcoin ETFs will remain ahead in performance if they stay net positive, but Ethereum is seeing growing institutional interest. 

BTC Hits New All-Time High

Bitcoin surged to $125,690, reaching a new all-time high. At the time of writing, BTC is trading at $123,880, up 11% in a week. 

Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas noted that Bitcoin is now largely held by more stable investors, which could lead to steadier upward movements rather than extreme volatility. This shift underscores Bitcoin’s evolution into an alternative asset class.

Trump’s decision caused outflows seen midweek to quickly reverse into inflows. According to the CoinShares report, investors initially made $1 billion in crypto outflows earlier in the week. However, the government’s green light for cryptocurrencies balanced these outflows with $1.57 billion inflows. As a result, the net inflow reached $578 million. 

The US recorded the highest crypto inflows last week. James Butterfill, Head of Research at CoinShares, stated that markets gained positive momentum after digital assets were allowed in 401(k) plans. On the other hand, crypto ETF volumes declined by 23% compared to last month due to the usual summer slowdown. 

Shifting Balance Between Bitcoin and Ethereum Investments 

Ethereum had long been the leader in the altcoin market. In recent weeks, Ethereum investment products saw record inflows of around $4.39 billion. The previous week, Ethereum received $133.9 million while Bitcoin investments experienced a $404 million outflow. However, this picture has changed in recent weeks. 

Bitcoin showed recovery signs after two consecutive weeks of outflows, rapidly closing the gap with Ethereum. Samson Mow, CEO of Jan3, notes that most Ethereum investors originally held significant Bitcoin during the ICO period and converted their Bitcoin to Ethereum to support Ethereum’s price. 

According to Butterfill, Bitcoin’s recovery supports the positive market sentiment. The balance between these two major crypto assets indicates strengthening investor confidence. Additionally, Trump’s 401(k) move helped sustain this optimism.

The post Crypto Inflows Surge to $578 Million Following Trump’s Move! appeared first on Coin Engineer.

As of May 2025, the total cryptocurrency market value has surpassed $3.3 trillion. Bitcoin’s price soared to $106,000, while Ethereum and other altcoins also experienced strong gains. This momentum signals the start of a new era in the crypto market.  

In particular, the return of institutional investors has bolstered the market’s strength. U.S.-based crypto investment funds, after recording approximately $7 billion in outflows in February and March, have seen inflows exceeding $7.5 billion since the start of the year. Last week alone, $785 million in investments flowed in, marking five consecutive weeks of net positive inflows. Additionally, significant activity was observed in Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF products. Bitcoin products attracted $557 million in inflows last week, while Ethereum ETFs saw $205 million, the highest since March. In May alone, these ETFs drew $2.64 billion in investments.  

Notably, the U.S. decision to establish a “strategic Bitcoin reserve” has significantly strengthened the market. This move has positioned digital assets on par with traditional reserve policies. Furthermore, regulatory developments in the stablecoin market are boosting investor confidence.  

Investors and Crypto Market Movements  

Recent geographic distribution trends are also noteworthy. The U.S. recorded $681 million in investment inflows, Germany saw $86.3 million, and Hong Kong attracted $24.4 million, its highest since November 2024. However, some exchanges experienced outflows. On May 13, Coinbase recorded a withdrawal of 9,739 Bitcoin (approximately $1 billion), marking the largest net exchange outflow in 2025. This suggests growing institutional appetite for long-term asset holdings.  

Additionally, the rise of ETFs in the crypto market highlights investors’ increasing demand for liquidity and transparency. The $2.64 billion in ETF investments in May underscores sustained institutional interest.

As a result, total global crypto AUM rose to $169 billion, now just 2.5% below the record $173.3 billion recorded at the end of January.

Still, the latest weekly inflow figure of $882 million marked a slowdown compared to $2 billion and $3.4 billion in the previous two weeks.

BlackRock Leads the Pack, Grayscale Lags Behind

In the US, crypto ETFs continued to break new ground. BlackRock’s iShares products attracted a staggering $1 billion in inflows last week alone.

With $8.1 billion in YTD inflows, BlackRock has outpaced the entire industry total, while Grayscale and Bitwise saw weekly outflows of $168 million and $27 million, respectively.

Meanwhile, Fidelity and ARK Invest reversed their previous trends with $62 million and $46 million in new capital, respectively.

Bullish Trend Driven by Macro Factors

CoinShares’ head of research James Butterfill pointed to several key drivers for the bullish sentiment: a global rise in M2 money supply, stagflation risks in the US, and multiple US states recognizing Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset.

The total crypto market cap currently stands at $3.5 trillion, just 11% below the record $3.9 trillion hit in December 2024.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $104,407, slightly below its all-time high above $106,000 posted in mid-December.
