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). Pretty good. No way @WhalePanda can still be pissed, right? pic.twitter.com/xHH3yjp4U7

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.

Sharp Outflows in Bitcoin ETFs 

The largest outflow of the day came from Fidelity’s FBTC fund, which saw $99.11 million withdrawn. Grayscale’s GBTC fund experienced a $19.65 million outflow, while BlackRock’s IBIT fund saw $77.42 million exit. Combined, the three major funds accounted for the entire $196.2 million outflow. Their total net assets now stand at $146.18 billion. Analysts attribute the withdrawals to market volatility, short-term profit-taking, and lingering uncertainty over Bitcoin’s short-term outlook. 

Ethereum ETFs Show Strong Inflows 

In contrast, Ethereum ETFs had a positive day with a net inflow of $73.3 million. The most notable investment was into BlackRock’s ETHA fund, which alone attracted $88.77 million. Overall, Ethereum ETFs now hold $9.10 billion in net inflows and $19.99 billion in total assets. Experts point to optimism around upcoming network upgrades and long-term growth potential as key drivers behind the demand. 

Shifting Investor Preferences 

The simultaneous exit from Bitcoin and entry into Ethereum reflects a strategic pivot among investors. Ethereum’s evolving technology and expanding ecosystem are generating renewed interest and potential opportunities, signaling that the momentum behind Ethereum ETFs could continue in the coming months.
