Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) achieved a landmark milestone on July 17th, surpassing Bitcoin ETFs in daily inflows for the first time. This unprecedented surge saw ETH ETFs attracting a staggering $602.02 million, representing a 15% increase over the $522.60 million flowing into Bitcoin ETFs that same day. The difference underscores the growing investor interest in Ethereum's smart contract capabilities and potential.
BlackRock's dominance in the Ether ETF market was undeniable. Their ETHA ETF alone captured a remarkable $546.70 million in inflows, comprising over 90% of the total daily Ethereum ETF inflow. Other significant contributors included Grayscale's Ether Mini Trust (ETHE) with $29.90 million and Fidelity's FETH with $17.19 million. Smaller inflows were observed for Bitwise's ETHW and 21Shares' CETH, while several other providers, including VanEck, Franklin Templeton, and Invesco, reported no inflows for their Ethereum ETFs that day. This substantial influx pushed the total trading volume of spot Ether ETFs to $2.29 billion, elevating their net asset value to $17.32 billion.
In contrast, while Bitcoin ETFs also experienced significant inflows, they were overshadowed by Ethereum's performance. BlackRock again led the pack, with their IBIT ETF receiving $497.30 million – over 95% of the total Bitcoin ETF inflow. Fidelity's FBTC and Invesco's BTCO followed with comparatively smaller inflows. Grayscale's Bitcoin Mini Trust, along with ETFs from several other providers, reported minimal or no inflows. Despite this, the total trading volume for Bitcoin spot ETFs reached $3.76 billion, though the provided text does not specify the resulting net asset value.
This remarkable shift in investor sentiment, reflected in the dramatic inflow disparity between Ethereum and Bitcoin ETFs on July 17th, highlights the evolving landscape of the cryptocurrency investment market and signifies a significant moment for Ethereum's future prospects.
