The cryptocurrency market witnessed a significant development for Ethereum as ETH ETFs recorded a massive inflow of nearly 57,900 ETH, valued at approximately $104.1 million, on April 25, 2025, as reported by Cas Abbé on Twitter at 10:30 AM UTC on April 26, 2025.
This substantial buying activity marks a notable shift in institutional interest in Ethereum, especially considering that none of the ETH ETFs sold any of their holdings during this period, according to the same source. The price of ETH at the time of this inflow was around $1,800 per token, as per data from CoinMarketCap recorded at 11:00 PM UTC on April 25, 2025.
Trading volume for ETH surged by 28% within 24 hours of the inflow, reaching $18.5 billion across major exchanges like Binance and Coinbase, based on statistics from CoinGecko at 8:00 AM UTC on April 26, 2025. This event is particularly noteworthy amidst a backdrop of fluctuating market sentiment for Ethereum over the past few weeks. Additionally, on-chain data from Glassnode at 9:00 AM UTC on April 26, 2025, shows that the number of active ETH addresses spiked by 15% to 1.2 million during this period, indicating heightened network activity. For trading pairs, ETH/BTC saw a 3.2% increase to 0.058 BTC per ETH, while ETH/USDT rose by 4.5% to $1,810 on Binance at 10:00 AM UTC on April 26, 2025. This inflow could signal a potential reversal for Ethereum, which has struggled to maintain bullish momentum since early 2025, with prices hovering below $2,000 for much of Q1 as per TradingView data tracked at 12:00 PM UTC on April 25, 2025. The absence of selling pressure from ETFs further strengthens the case for a possible breakout, making this a critical moment for traders monitoring Ethereum price predictions and ETH ETF inflows in 2025.
